"Technician scheduled an evening estimate, and arrived promptly despite warnings that rush-hour appointments can be dicey. The estimate was detailed and included a sketch for clarity, and the work was accomplished exactly as described. The technician providing the estimate outlined very clearly what our options were in repairing water-damaged walls, ranging from the conservative to the drastic, and described the likely impact in terms of time and cost if we discovered that hidden damage proved more extensive than he assumed from the visible woodwork and drywall. The workman was punctual, polite, and conscientious; not only did he perform and complete the work exactly as desired, but he did all of the cutting and sanding outside to minimize the dust inside wherever possible and carefully avoided conflicting with another repair team that had arrived on short notice to complete another job. He did a beautiful job finishing the work; it's impossible to tell the difference between the existing and repaired wall and trim, and the newly installed access panel is more convenient to operate than the original."

"Overall, very well. There were two pair of workers here over 7.5 days. The first did very good work, but had difficulty matching the stain of vintage woodworK (probably maple). Also they were average at clean-up. The second team was terrific, especially at matching the color and restoring the woodwork. They also did excellent repair/restoration and cleaned up well."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

Carpentry is a skilled trade and requires many years of experience to acquire the skills necessary to do the job efficiently and correctly. Because every home requires a carpenter at some stage of the building process, carpenters are typically in high demand. The higher the skill level, the higher the hourly rate the carpenter can charge.

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.
