"I initially hired Clint to remove ceramic tile and laminate flooring in my townhouse which was to be replaced with hardwood flooring. I found him to be hardworking professional, detail oriented and a General Contractor, so for me he was a one stop shop for many other projects planned for my home renovation. In addition, I had him update ans, install new lighting and partial renovate all 3 of my bathrooms. His pricing was fair, his work ethic outstanding because he worked from early morning until into night and his references checked out . He showed up on time and always kept his word. He has a pleasant disposition and was easy to work with. I was so impressed that I recommended him to my best friend who also ceramic tile removed and wanted hardwood flooring installed in her home and her house was bigger than mine. I am also a Realtor, so I know lots of trades people and I am always looking for good talent to recommend to my clients. I have already recommended to one of client and intend to do more of that in the future. Outstanding!"

"I just had a custom built-in bookcase built and installed in my home by Juniata. Juniataâ s craftsmanship, professionalism, and diverse set of carpentry capabilities sets them apart from everyone else in the market. I had an idea of what I wanted to have built and Juniata worked with me to see that idea come to life. Besides the excellent craftsmanship provided, Juniata communicated every step of their construction process with me all the way up until completion which was a huge added benefit to the project. I highly recommend using Juniata for your carpentry, wood working, and furniture needs. I will definitely be coming back to emâ in the future for other projects."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

You don’t need a cutting board. In fact, cutting is the original purpose of butcher block countertops. That said, wood is porous and can harbor germs. You’ll need to clean your countertop thoroughly after use. Knives can also scratch the surface. This adds to the patina of the wood, but not everyone likes the look—in which case, you may want to use a cutting board.

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.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.
