"I hired these people to do a very simple repair on my deck for me. Nobody was very interested in doing it because it was a small job. But these guys got it done for me. I am possibly planning on hiring them for more extensive work in my yard now and hope to find that they do great work here too. Still waiting for them to get back with me with an estimate, however, and hoping to hear from them soon soon."

"Vasa construction called me right away off Angie’s list and came out and offered a competitive quote the same day. I hired them and they started working 2 days later. They were very professional and kept my home clean throughout the whole process. I will use them again."

"The Exodus crew did a great job on our shed. I recently had shoulder surgery and wasn’t able to move the tools from our old shed and to clear out the junk. They did it for me then demolished the old shed and built a much sturdier shed with a loft for extra storage. They even upgraded the roof tiles for me at no extra cost. I highly recommend Exodus LLC 4 for replacing sheds and any other projects around the home (i.e. bathroom or kitchen remodels, etc)."

"Rosell Home did an amazing job rebuilding my entire home (which had been gutted to the studs) after a fire. The original contractors on the project, were terrible. After several months of no progress, I hired Randy from Rosell Home to finish (really to start) the rebuild. It was the best decision I could have made. The experience was like night and day from the precious contractors. Rosell Home made sure all the permits were properly pulled, had great subcontractors, and made sure the construction was to code. (The previous contractors tried to get away with not bringing things to code, because it would be "too difficult"). The communication was fabulous, I knew when people would be working on my house, what the schedule was, and if there were unexpected issues, they always had proposals for solutions. When Rosell Home took over the reconstruction, they really seemed dedicated to getting me back in as soon as possible. Amber helped me with all the design selections which was critical. After a fire, the last thing you want to do is make decisions about finishes. Amber got a sense of my style and would pull out a few selections for me to look at and choose from. This massively reduced the stress of walking into a store full of tile, or paint, or flooring and being told to pick something. She worked with me to make sure I was happy. They also stood behind their work. During Covid, their normal subcontractors were not always available, and when the alternate subcontractors work was not up to their standards, they had the work redone. Including reinstalling the hardwood floor! Throughout the whole process it felt like they were working on my home, not just another construction site. I love my new house and am so happy with the work they did! If you hire Rosell Home, you will not be disappointed!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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. 

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.

Wooden soffits, when properly cared for, can last between 10 and 25 years, depending on the type of wood and the climate you live in. Certain wood types will last longer than others, and you might want to consider the cost of replacing soffits when you break down the total project cost. While an initially higher-priced material might seem counterintuitive, it can make more financial sense if you don’t plan on moving.
