"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 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.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results. 

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

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, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.
