"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

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.

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.

If you don’t have a coping saw, you can use an angle grinder to cope crown molding, but it takes a little more precision. Place your molding down on your workbench, angle the grinder at a 45-degree angle toward the molding, and back cut the wood. You’ll need to carefully angle your grinder to accommodate the curves in the wood, and aim to remove around 1 inch from the profile of the molding.

Most landscape timbers are 8 feet long, but some are also available in 10-foot and 12-foot lengths. Choose the length that will allow you to install landscape timbers using the least amount of cutting to fit. Shorter timbers will allow you to more easily create angles and shorter plant bed sides.

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.
