"Wilfredo built and installed some beautiful built in bookshelves in our living room and integrated it with an older fireplace mantle surround, all against existing uneven sheetrock and floor. It wasn't an easy job but he made it look easy. He's very knowledgeable and skilled and you can tell he loves what he does. On top of that he was very helpful and accessible by phone with any questions/concerns we had. He even dropped off several samples of a cut of wood at home while we were at work so we could decide on our own time. I would highly recommend."

"As we get older reaching the bottom shelves of cabinets meant getting on our hands and knees using a flashlight to get what we needed We hired them to remove all the shelves from the bottom cabinets and replace them with drawers that pulled out easily. They did an excellent job for us. Very professional The price was well within our budget and the final product was fabfrigentastic! I highly recommend them for all your cabinet work."

Customers say: Quick response

"I bought a large entertainment center/armoire to convert into a snake enclosure. The doors were solid so I hired Mendez Carpentry to create glass doors for it. He took a few hours to look into the pricing of the materials then got back to me with a very reasonable quote. Then he came over and listened to exactly what I wanted. The doors turned out exactly how I wanted an now the enclosure looks beautiful! Bogard was so nice and easy to work with. We were so impressed that my husband and I showed him several other projects around the house that we will have him complete for us. And when we are ready, we want to have him remodel the master bathroom. I am super happy and highly recommend him."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.
