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."

"My husband and I would highly recommend this company. Scott was a good listener concerning what we wanted and gave suggestions to us. He was so easy to work with. He communicated at least weekly to let us know what was happening with our project and was right on target with the timeframe given. When any work was done he was here to supervise. The work done was excellent and of high quality. Scott is very professional, trustworthy and personably. We are so pleased we found this company."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.

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.

Tipping contractors, builders, or general contractors is not customary or expected. Unlike many service professions where tipping is built into the payment structure, construction professionals typically charge a full rate for their services. However, you may choose to tip a worker for exceptional service, such as if they go above and beyond, stay late to meet a deadline, or work on a holiday weekend. Before offering a tip, it's a good idea to ask about the company's policy, as some prohibit their employees from accepting gratuities. If you want to show your appreciation for a job well done without giving a cash tip, consider writing a positive online review or offering to serve as a reference for potential new customers.
