Customers say: Quality work

"Curtis Kuhn is a master craftsman. He converted my old family cedar chest into a beautiful heirloom piece for my family. The cedar chest was in really bad shape, and Curtis made it remarkably lovely and like new again. He takes great pride in his work, and his prices are reasonable. I recommend Kuhn Custom Woodworking to anyone who needs any kind of woodwork done."

"We had DJ’s Cabinets build custom built-in cabinets for our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The quality of workmanship and attention to detail are outstanding—everything was beautifully crafted. Communication throughout the entire process was excellent, with clear updates and great follow-up. They really took the time to understand our needs and delivered a customized design that fits our space perfectly. The team was professional, reliable, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. I would highly recommend DJ’s Cabinets to anyone looking for high-quality custom cabinetry."

"Mark met with me promptly, listening to my needs, looking at what I wanted to store, gave me an estimate and then sent a drawing later that week with formal quote. He was creative and flexible with the design. He also figured out how to deal with unfinished floor and pulling out 1950's built ins as well as access to under the house in another closet. He also gave me the option of having the inside of closets painted the same day as install. Once scheduled the team came in less than two weeks. They were efficient, professional, prepared and cleaned up. The work was done in 1/2 a day including painting walls. The system is clean, white, solid, with adjustable shelves and rods. We added a couple of drawers in two closets. Mark let me know that if we want to make any changes he is happy to provide an additional rod or shelf or pin with just an email. And he knows our needs change. There was follow up the next month too. Working with a local owner and his crew who have been in the business for awhile was great. If you need closet work done I recommend Closet storage systems and owner Mark."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

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.

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.
