"We recently moved to a place with exposed piping throughout. The one spot that did not look good with the piping was the dining room. Augustus designed a long, boxed shelf to cover the pipe and the design was beautiful in its simplicity and elegance. Anthony, Augustus & Vas constructed it and then Augustus & Vas installed it. They were very professional and worked quickly and capably. We have asked for a design from OPAL Studios for another project to convert part of a high ceiling space into an esthetically pleasing storage space. We are confident that they will do a great job again!"

"Tom Quartararo and Derek Sudol did an excellent job with my kitchen cabinet renovation project with Kitchen Magic. They are very knowledgeable and provided me with excellent customer service. Kitchen Magic used premium materials, high-quality custom cabinet doors and craftsmanship to upgrade the style of my kitchen. Tom was very responsive and went above and beyond during the process of the fabrication, installation and clean-up. Kitchen Magic completely transformed and modernized my kitchen! After such a positive experience, I highly recommend this company for all your kitchen renovation needs."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

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.
