Customers say: True professional

"After considering many options for re-doing our existing natural oak kitchen cabinets, we hired Vitaliy to paint them white. We used all our original cabinets and doors, except that he suggested installing larger crown modeling, which made a huge difference in the appeal of our kitchen. He also suggested bumping out the cabinet above our microwave, which also added much character. As a part of the process, he switched all doors to hidden, soft close hinges, and installed soft close mechanisms on all drawers. Finally, we asked him to install pull-outs on a couple of our lower cabinets. He did a tremendous job, and it was so affordable that we also had him re-finish our fiberglass front door to match our overhead garage doors, finish and install new bi-fold doors in our entryway, and refinish a window seat in one of our bedrooms. We are very picky, and asked Vitality to make some minor adjustments and touch-ups to the work, which he did wonderfully, and to our total satisfaction. Vitaliy provides a tremendous combination of quality work and affordability. We are so very thankful that we found him!"

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

"Brent and his team did all of the finish work on our high end custom build in Sioux Falls. Brent did great work and his team carried themselves with professionalism. He did everything from custom walls, custom shelving, cabinets, doors, trim work, custom beams, tray ceilings, etc. The few changes on our end we asked for he was quick and accommodating to make it exactly how we wanted it. He communicated very well and did the job in a timely manner! Highly recommended."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Carpentry is a skilled trade and requires many years of experience to acquire the skills necessary to do the job efficiently and correctly. Because every home requires a carpenter at some stage of the building process, carpenters are typically in high demand. The higher the skill level, the higher the hourly rate the carpenter can charge.

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.

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
