"My husband & I used Sturdy Woodworks to have our kitchen completely redone! The owner Hart Withrow, is actually hands on with his crew, which I admired. He pays a lot of attention to detail and if things aren’t precise, he will redo it until it is. Hart has a strong background in woodworking so we hired him to come back to design, build and install tasteful, elegant yet functional bathroom cabinets & drawers. Not only was the work done on time but it all turned out beautifully. I would most definitely recommend this company for remodeling of both Kitchen & Bathrooms! Not to mention custom woodworking!"

"Paul and his crew did a fantastic job building and installing cabinets in our kitchen. When we bought a farm sink after-the-fact that didn't fit, he came back out and refaced the cabinet and installed the sink. It all looks beautiful and works great. He and his crew were quick and clean. I definitely plan on hiring him again for other projects."

"Robin and his team did a great job on the exterior of the house. We had quite a few trim boards that needed to be replaced prior to painting. They did a great job painting the trim and the stucco. The house has never looked better. I highly recommend this company."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

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.

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results.
