"Karl repaired my patio deck, replaced some of the underside structure that was rotted and all the top decking, was very professional and courteous. He did what he said he would do, was on time and very reasonable cost. His work was exceptional and I’m very proud of my new deck. I will have him do more work again. BR"

"There is only one way to get to the deck we had replaced and that is through the house so it was important our contractor and workers were professional. Yury and his team were exceptionally easy to work with--not only skilled and dedicated to quality, but also polite, pleasant, punctual, and diligent. We could not ask for more and will call LTB again when we have another project."

"I hired S&L for several projects to assist on finish work for a new house I was building. The work included installing cabinetry in the kitchen, baths and laundry room. Custom building shelving in several closet and a pantry. Doing stone and tile work. Also finish trim in various areas around the house. The team did excellent work, were very conscientious about the work and also very clean and respectful about the work and our needs. I would highly recommend them for any type of project. As we have new needs I will be contacting them for future projects."

"Stone Oasis did a fantastic job on my countertops. Justin, the owner, was extremely helpful from the moment I walked in. He always followed up during the following weeks to see when my cabinets would be done. He went the extra mile to make sure my new sink matched perfectly. Installation was scheduled just days after measuring, not weeks like the big box stores. The photos below are from the day of installation so the kitchen is not fully finished but so far it looks amazing!!"

"Brock was terrific to work with. Helped us think through the project and make informed decisions about wood vs concrete stairs. The concrete walkway looks great as do the stairs! He even took spare wood from the main project and fixed broken latticework. We will definitely ask him again when we have more contracting tasks to do!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.
