**★★★★★ — jmteeter, July 2014**

> Beautiful work at reasonable rates.  We've invited Vertex back to our historic home several times to perform delicate work on 200-year old flooring, decorative woodwork, and similar needs.  Jim has an eye for detail and cost-saving processes.  He's very, very good.  Highly recommended.

**Comment from Vertex Carpentry:**

> Thank you for your recommendation! We really appreciate your time, and confidence in our work. We always love working on your home for the unique challenges and creative solutions.

**★★★★★ — Sheila Kling, July 2014**

> I've used Jim Fernen and Vertex twice now to build and install cabinetry, bookshelves and a TV cabinet in my family room.  Jim went above and beyond in completing the job in a timely manner.  He was able to make some serious construction flaws in my room appear as though they never existed.  His attention to design, construction and even the most minute detail is excellent.  I plan on using him again in the near future.

**Comment from Vertex Carpentry:**

> Thank you so much for your recommendation, it really helps others get to know our service. Really enjoyed working on your project.

**★★★★★ — gstopc, June 2014**

> Put the finishing touches on a guest room, pantry and replaced doors in an upstairs hallway, including crown and baseboard molding in all the rooms refinished.  His carpentry work is outstanding with attention to detail.  Made sure his helpers stayed on task and cleaned up spotlessly a upon completion.. Cannot recommend him more highly.

**Comment from Vertex Carpentry:**

> Thank you for your confidence in our work, we appreciate the time you took to share this

**★★★★★ — Jan Duffy, June 2014**

> Vertex Carpentry has worked both on the inside and outside of our home ~ from custom carpentry work to replacing our roof, siding and damage exterior woodwork, and a host of other jobs.  Never - not once - were we  unhappy with the work performed.  We could always count on Vertex to arrive on time and, if returning the next day,  they cleaned up leaving the area where work was being done spotless.  We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Vertex - and specificially, Jim Fernan, to anyone needing work done.  Without question they are \#1 in our book.

**★★★★★ — paperme, June 2014**

> It is always a pleasure working with Jim his attention to detail from proposal to completion of services  are always provided in a professional manner, giving the customer full knowledge of what they can expect from start to finish. When faced with difficult challenges his creativity and solutions are always welcomed knowing they will be unique along with the superior craftsmanship he always provides. Vertex services for me have always been dependable and consistent in all projects we have engaged.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Will these tiles damage my hardwood floor?** *(in Product Questions)*

Are these removable for cleaning? Will the adhesive damage the flooring underneath?

A: It very much depends on the type of adhesive used, as well as what type of flooring you have. A solid wood floor can ultimately be sanded if there is an issue. There is another consideration however. Often these types of adhesive backed tiles need a completely flat surface to adhere to look their best, a wood floor likely is not completely flat and level, especially if it is at all worn. An underlayment may be your best bet.
