"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"I hired Chuck to help restore and paint my 110 year old home. This house was no small project as it is four stories high, includes 3 dormers, and had an ugly peeling paint job all over. Not only that but I wasn't sure what colors I wanted to use. I was very lucky to get Chuck and his crew. I've dealt with several contractors who do okay work but I could tell Chuck had a passion for helping me restore my home. He gave me several suggestions out of the Benjamin Moore catalogue of historical colors where I found a set I really liked. He had about a 4wk lead time until he was ready to start my home and during this he gave all sorts of tips on how to do some work myself and even bought me the supplies (Duramax paint, rollers, buckets, 5 in 1 tool) his crew would use so I could do some DIY. This helped me immensely and I got a good bit of work done. He showed up when he said he would begin the job and he and his crew worked tirelessly for nine days straight. This included a lot of scraping and prep work, some wood repair for damaged clapboards, painting my gutters and down spouts, and extensive caulking of the siding and around every window (20+ widows on the house). They put 50+ tubes of caulk into my home to seal it and they had to rent a lift to reach the dormers and top of the house. There were times when those guys worked 8am to 8pm. These guys spent a lot of time on the prep to get the surface right and a lot of time around each window to seal it properly. The end result was beautiful restored home. Chuck did extras for me as well including fixing my antique front door, added a new front and rear porch light that looked historical to match the house, reattached a fallen gutter, and added a long horizontal board along the bottom which not only protected some of the weaker clapboard but also was a good aesthetic choice. More over my house has a lot of trim and Chuck had the idea to paint some trim the body color so there were less lines overall and it really looks amazing. The bottom line is Chuck has been doing this for a long time and has a lot of experience and it really shows. His crew was solid and worked very hard. They didn't just do the minimum but added some nice details and extras and having someone that cares about their work goes a long way. They cleaned up nice and we had no disputes about labor or payment. I would personally rehire them for additional work and would also highly recommend them for future jobs."

"It is a waste of money. The great majority of people are not going to find any value out of the service. If you need design consultation, you need a full service consultation. If you already have knowledge and experience, and you just need to get a few ideas, then you don't need to pay for that. You can just get a magazine or a book since you already have the knowledge of basic designs in your head or a little bit of experience. To have someone call you and give you information over the phone, you are not getting the personal service that you need. You may as well take the money $49 and apply it to something else like getting someone else to come out and give you the service that you need. Because, you are not getting much, you are not getting anything at all. They are going to have you do the work. After talking to them and I was talking to other home designers, I found out that that was a waste of time and waste of money. I gave them a C because they didn't fail at what they do but they don't offer any value for what they do. There's not much value to it. The cost was fair. They didn't do a terrible job and the cost isn't terrible, it was only $49. It just has a very low value. For responsiveness I gave them a B because they will answer your phone and answer your emails."

"We called Machen for an estimate to tear off our old roof on our house and detached garage. They were very responsive and Jodi even came out on a Saturday to give us an estimate. He was very knowledgeable regarding the materials and products we needed, and we were impressed that he actually climbed the roof to take all of the measurements, where other contractors we had contacted did not. The estimate we received was fair considering that the roof deck would need wrapped and the amount of ice guard we needed. Jodi and his team were on time every day and got right to work. They took their time on the job and were very conscientious about the work performed to ensure it was done correctly. Jodi takes a lot of pride in ensuring the job site remains neat and takes a lot of care to ensure they thoroughly clean up before leaving for the day. We ran into heavy rain halfway through the project and Jodi even came out on the weekend to ensure that the roof was water tight before the rain hit. The new roof looks great and we are very pleased with the end result!"

"The sales person, Suzy, described their process, (which turned out to be mostly accurate), and suggested materials, which I chose (which turned out to mostly the ones available). The linoleum I chose did not look much like the picture she showed from the Web, but it's OK. There was a bit more time than promised between her visit and the call from the office, but not much. My construction manager was Jason, and he was here every day and made sure that all worked well. Ryan was my installer. Everything is wonderful; the cabinets are great and the installed tile is really striking. Ryan cleaned up every day, came promptly, and did excellent work. The only negative things are that the cabinets (by Wolf) have "moveable" shelves that are so hard to move that each one takes about 10 minutes of sweat-inducing strain to unfasten. They want their shelves to be sturdy, and they could accomplish that with the same system, but make the shelves about 1/8 of an inch shorter. Also some quarter round still needs to be put in the closet. One of the electrical outlets took some adjusting because it was set too deep. Remodel USA will do the kitchen etc, but does not paint, so we spent a fair amount of time cleaning, priming, and repainting the walls and some woodwork. I worked on some other parts that were difficult (electrical and heating), but that is because it's an old house."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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).

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.

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.
