"Jerry was professional and took the project that others thought it was minor and would not. He delivered my butcher block countertops and refaced my cabinet doors. What a magnificent change to my kitchen. His work is excellent. I would highly recommend this contractor for your cabinet and woodworking."

"Chris and his team were awesome to work with for our fence install and repair. Many of the companies we contacted for quotes were either too busy or charging exorbitant prices. Chris was super efficient and charged us a fair price, we were so happy with how quick the project was from start to finish. The fence itself looks better than we could have hoped, very pleased with the craftsmanship!"

"We were very pleased with Mickey's work from start to finish. We had him pretty much paint our whole first floor with some drywall repair in our downstairs bathroom while installing new doors. Since the project was large, he layed out for us what he would be working on for that day. Mickey was very flexible as we had a handful of requests along the way. My husband and I are already thinking about different projects for the future and know Mickey is who we want to help us with these projects. This was our first "Angie" experience and we were super impressed."

"Byler Cabinet Restorations did my kitchen, laundry/pantry, and mudroom/entry cabinets, and I highly recommend him to anyone planning a kitchen renovation. He was punctual, professional, and his workmanship was excellent. The renovation presented a few challenges that required creative thinking, and he came up with smart, practical solutions every time. He also helped me repurpose my old cabinets for the garage, which turned out beautifully."

Customers say: Quick response

"So we had a custom entertainment center built. We initially were gonna use a California closet type of business but wanted real wood not laminates. He met with us quickly and got a plan together. The process took about 8 weeks from first meeting to being completed but this was during the Xmas season. He kept in touch and kept us updated. He brought the finished product in to the house and installed it over 1.5 days. The quality was top notch. The painting of the product actually looks flawless. Very happy and impressed. Cost was very reasonable compared to laminate and non wood products.i would submit pictures but some reason it s not offering that option."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

If you don’t have a coping saw, you can use an angle grinder to cope crown molding, but it takes a little more precision. Place your molding down on your workbench, angle the grinder at a 45-degree angle toward the molding, and back cut the wood. You’ll need to carefully angle your grinder to accommodate the curves in the wood, and aim to remove around 1 inch from the profile of the molding.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.
