"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."

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

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Landscape timbers can last 10 to 20 years in the ground when installed correctly. Pressure-treated timbers will last longer than non-treated ones, as pressure treatment makes the wood more rot-resistant. Wood exposed to high moisture levels or extreme temperature and weather fluctuations may not last as long as wood in drier areas with more consistent weather.

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.

General contractors use subcontractors to complete specific parts of a construction project. For example, a general contractor might have construction experience but need a subcontractor to install plumbing lines in a new home.

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.
