"The owner Steve is incredibly talented. He installed 2 piece crown molding in 4 rooms and did an amazing job. He’s all about attention to detail. He’s honest and hard working. I could not be happier with the results. I not only recommend him 100% but will be having him back to do more projects for my home. I’m so happy to have found him. Great guy and great job! 5+ stars ✨"

"The work went quite well and as advertised. I rated the price as fair because they were not the lowest cost option. However, the blend of thoughtful consultation, design and professional installation made the slightly higher cost worth it."

"I contacted Art Woodstone Studio about making a custom bench with drawers for my den. George and Tea, the owners, came to my townhouse to discuss the project. We discussed the dimensions, design, and they gave an estimate. I had contact with them during the period they were making the bench and we would discuss any needed clarifications. They are very easy to work with. Six weeks later they delivered my bench. The bench is beautiful and I’m well satisfied. I highly recommend Art Woodstone Studio. Their prices are reasonable for the quality of work."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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.

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.

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.
