"Isaac and his team were great throughout the whole process of remodeling our kitchen. The design process was easy - he provided multiple layout options that helped us see what our kitchen could be and then worked with us on customization where we needed it. The build quality is amazing and install was quick and smooth. And, they're just good people to work with!"

"Highly recommend!! Extremely professional and extremely efficient. In addition to painting >3,000 sq feet with a majority being >17 feet walls the team ensured they patched and fixed any cracks, and or damage to the home we purchased ensuring everything looked flawless and undetectable once painted. I’ve been through multiple home repairs/improvements in the past and cannot express how amazing this team was. Recommend for any renovations, paint etc… they came recommended and I can absolutely see why!!"

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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. 

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.
