"Don and team did phenomenal work. They built and installed a beautiful bookshelf and huge sliding barn-style door at the top of our staircase. It looks absolutely amazing. Don and his team handled everything extremely professionally, did all the initial measurements quickly and completed the build on everything super quick, the install was exactly on time and perfectly done. They took our initial ideas and brought it to life. I will certainly be using them again for future projects and I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for cabinet / wood work."

"Marcelino Lopez built beautiful 14’ customer cabinets and shelves in our den. He also custom built floor to ceiling cabinets on the garage with a work bench. We told him what we wanted and he made some great suggestions we hadn’t even thought about. He emailed us his CAD drawings and they were great, very detailed. He’s s a perfectionist, his work is high quality, no corners cut, and his prices are very reasonable. He’s always on time and cleans up when he’s through for the day. He has been building cabinets for 30 years, I would highly recommend him and would hire him again! Beautiful work, you won’t be sorry you hired him!"

"Scott was wonderful to work with. I had some very definite ideas about what I wanted and he fulfilled every one. The workmanship is exceptional and beautiful! After we signed the contract, he called each week to update me on timing and I was able to ask any questions I had which he cheerfully answered. Before signing the contract, I went to Lowe's with my exact ideas to see they're cost. It was a little lower than Scott's but I couldn't personalize nearly as much. So, you get what you pay for my friend. Either you work with the owner of the company who is a master carpenter, professional, and nice, or get premade stuff from a big box store. I'll take small business any time."

"The DFW Complete Handyman has completed numerous projects at our home. The work completed is exceptional. One large project completed was replacing and painting the gable ends of our large 1700 square foot home. The special handyman, Charles took down the old siding and replaced it with new siding. The company hauled off the old material and did a great cleanup. We were satisfied with the workmanship. The company didn't ask for any upfront money. This is a dependable company."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.
