"Justin is superior in his work, very meticulous. He was there when he said he would be, and very easy to get a hold of. Very honest guy, I left my home in his care without a worry . Everything was done beautifully and if he had an issue he goes over it with you explaining it in detail. Lea , Justinâ s wife can handle the cabinet design working with the kitchen design center, this made the process go smoothly as she handled most interactions with them. She did her own drawings with Auto Cad and was able to guide us through the right kitchen for our needs. She made the design process flow so smoothly. If you are building a new home or just needing an upgrade like we did, I would highly recommend Justin and also adding Leaâ s service, when you do. You will not be disappointed."

"Let me start with Iâ m a paraplegic from a car wreck in 2001. Since that time Iâ ve hired Mr Ronald multiple projects to make my house more wheelchair accessible. Heâ s built ramps for me, widened doors, poor concrete ramps, barn doors, Sheetrock work, custom cabinets, and completely remodeled my bathroom. All done with the utmost attention to detail and craftsmanship. Heâ s never been late, busted my budget, or been anything less than the utmost professional. I would recommend him to anyone that needs work done. Well versed and knowledgeable."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

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.

The pro you need to hire to build your shed depends on the shed you purchase. A local handyman or general contractor can help build a prefab shed for you. However, if you’re looking for a custom shed, contacting a shed builder near you is the best option. Make sure you get quotes from 3 pros to decide on the best pro for your job. 

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.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
