"Joe was professional and his workmanship was top notch! We are thrilled with the job he did for us and our woodwork was not straight forward so he had to strategize on the best way to do it and it came out perfect!"

"George is an incredible woodworker and did an equally incredible job on my stairway. He is very efficient and shows up when promised. He never left a mess at the end of the day which, for me, was appreciated. My bannisters have a new look and I cannot get over the great job he did! I would HIGHLY recommend him! Also, the customer service was unmatched. Marcus contacted me right away after submitting my request. He also followed up when he said he would and he was extremely responsive. I never had to 'chase' him down to get an answer. Again, I would highly recommend Royal Stairs and would give them 10 stars if I could!!!!"

"I recently hired Zach's Cabinets to build a custom window seat in our office and a custom bench in our hallway. Both turned out absolutely beautiful. Ray perfectly executed the vision we had and improved upon it by using the best, high-quality materials. There is not one flaw, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs custom cabinetry. For the window seat, he also had to move an outlet and reroute a vent, which turned out equally as perfect. Plus, Ray was so easy to work with and a pleasure throughout the entire process from quote through to completion."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

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.
