"I contacted Angie’s list for a handyman. Jworks was the only one that contacted me back for the items I needed help with. It all started with installing a microwave. I’ve hired him several times. He’s awesome, does a great job. I will continue to hire him as long as he continues to do this kind of work. All my jobs have been well done!! Thanks Jworks."

"Josh was extremely professional and kind. He was not only on time but a little early which he texted ahead of time to advise of. He engaged in conversation and was personal yet that never interrupted his working. His diligence on staying on task and completing everything I had for him that day was indeed accomplished ( and it was a list). He put together 2 very large bookcases, hung a bathroom cabinet, and built and assembled an outside storage unit for me. He did a great job; and clean up after himself. That part is rare! I am very satisfied and even grateful to have found a craftsmen such as him. I highly recommend him. I know I will continue to use Josh."

"So glad we found out about Amanda from a neighbor! We inherited grandma’s treasured cedar chest that had seen better days. It wasn’t highest quality, so it was challenging with the damaged veneer and random paint. Amanda cleaned it up, did amazing repairs, and handled the pickup and drop off. Great craftsmanship combined with a great personality."

"Our family has worked with Robert and his team multiple times since the 90s. From the first renovation in 1994, to a 2019 addition/extension to the same home, to recent work preparing to sell our rental property, Robert has been our go-to guy. His work is outstanding. His crew is hard-working, respectful, and responsible (and just really fun guys to be around!) He approaches everything with such pride, and he provides outstanding guidance all the way through. It's like working with family - Robert has really become part of ours all these years!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

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.
