"Bill was great! He was able to build our home within 6 months, which was amazing! He was very organized and very good with communicating with us throughout the entire process. He was able to save us 15k through certain design choices! He is definitely the guy to go to to get the job done. The house looks amazing and have been in it for almost 4 months now and we love it."

"If every builder I worked with were like Henry Jones, my life would be 10x easier. He showed up when he said he would. Communication was excellent. I always knew what to expect. He gave me a bid and kept to it. He didn't expect money until the job was complete. And on top of it all, he did an excellent job installing doors, trim and baseboards. I would happily hire him again and recommend him to anyone needing doors and/or trim."

"Carlos did a phenomenal job with our project. We got new trim for some of our windows and crown moldings.. he was incredibly professional, did an exemplary job with the installation. I unexpectedly threw an additional paint job in and he very willingly took that on and completed it as well.. his work is very thorough and we have already engaged him on a painting project for our home.. he is absolutely great to work with and I would without any hesitation recommend to anybody. If you are looking for quality work, you should work with Vera Construction. You will not be sorry."

"I hired Justin to fix some cabinet problems in my kitchen. One problem was a broken corner in my crown molding. He repaired it so well that it is not noticeable. I consider him a magician with wood. Justin was on time, careful, skillful, and efficient. I would hire him again and would recommend him to all. He was quick to get me in touch with one of his contractors for another job I need done. I'm attaching a before and after. Don't mind the staining. The project is not finished."

"We had an excellent experience building our home with Timberline Property Management and Construction. From the initial planning stages through completion, their team was professional, transparent, and highly responsive. Communication was clear and consistent, and they took the time to explain options, timelines, and costs so there were no surprises along the way. The quality of craftsmanship truly stands out. Timberline paid close attention to detail and delivered a home that met—and in many cases exceeded—our expectations. Any questions or minor issues that came up were addressed promptly and handled with care. Building a home can be stressful, but Timberline made the process smooth and well-organized. We felt confident that our project was in good hands from start to finish. We highly recommend Timberline Property Management and Construction to anyone looking for a trustworthy builder who values quality, integrity, and customer satisfaction."

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.

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

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.

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, 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.
