"Crafting lanterns for 35 years has been our life's work. When our trusted cabinet maker could no longer supply wood sticks, we faced a crisis. Enter Tom, a skilled artisan who quickly adapted to our meticulous craft. His precise cuts and timely deliveries have made him an invaluable part of our lantern team. Tom's dedication has not just filled a void; it has illuminated our craft with a new level of collaboration and camaraderie."

"I could not be more pleased with the install work done by Evergreen Construction. Edwardo was fast, professional and very detail oriented in the work he and his team did on my new kitchen. He was able to build my RTA cabinets and install them, inclusive of some custom work in 2 days. I would highly recommend Evergreen if you are looking for quality, professions work at a reasonable price."

"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."

"Omg. The fence is so beautiful. Brock had such good ideas. The quality was exceptional. Three gates . Black hog wire in beautiful wood. It turned out above my expectations.

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

Many contractors prefer checks because they’re easy to track and have no associated fees. However, many also accept credit cards (though they might add a fee to cover their processing costs).

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, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.
