"Carl and William are a pleasure to work with. They offered options for replacing/repairing my aunt's back deck and worked with her to customize the solution she selected. Both she and I strongly recommend this business for its customer service, professionalism, prompt response, excellent craftsmanship, and willingness to adjust as necessary."

"Jose did a wonderful job with our wrought iron fence, stone columns, 3 gates and a trash enclosure. He was also kind enough to return and fix one of the stone columns that got loose. He’s reliable and responsive as well as an easy person to work with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him."

"The owner is a master craftsman! He allowed me to tour his woodworking shop and showed me several designs he was working on and pieces he had completed. His specialty is hidden compartments and security in his furniture. In order to standout, he consults with customers on what the goals are for each piece of furniture he makes. His custom designs are innovative, high-quality, and supremely functional. The cabinets, bookshelves, and tables were made with the best materials. He is honest, hardworking, and detail-oriented. You won't find a better craftsman that this gentleman."

"Contractor first powerwashed our sadly neglected deck, which brightened the wood considerably.  I had to provide the waterproofing sealant, and the kind I got had to be applied on dry wood, so he came back the next week to finish the job.  I feel much better about spending time on my deck now. I would call them again.

"Finished doing an extensive inside renovation to my second home and was ready to tackle on the outside. Jodi came out and helped design the front and back with great ideas. They constructed a new patio area with beautiful gravel, installed a cowboy pool, deck, built a gorgeous pergola, stained and painted, added landscape lighting, did grading to the land, French drains, and extensive landscaping. Love the privacy trees Jodi chose as well as all the fun plants. Couldn’t be happier and will recommend again."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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

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.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.
