we contracted with Western Wood to demolish and remove an old deteriorating wooden deck. Then design and replace with larger redwood deck and built in seating and utility cabinet/bar/railing etc. and also a replacement fence post and large gate. Then they completely coated and sealed. They project was quoted promptly and reasonably after a significant meeting and discussion of the scope of what we wanted and expected. The project was started on time based on original quote and commitment. The quality of the materials and workmanship were very good and exactly in line with what was quoted and expected. The crew was there daily when expected and a partial site cleanup was done at the end of each day, The basic project came in at budget as quoted and all changes---adds or deletes we requested during project were always discussed in advance and quoted/negotiated fairly and reasonably. The one minor problem we had with small tile top on BBQ utility cabinet/bar---was resolved promptly and reworked to our satisfaction and at no cost to us. The owner Scott Nelson is personally involved in all aspects of a project and on site 95% of the time, He is a very detail oriented and a skilled wood craftsman who does very good workmanship. He is also creative and made several suggestions which improved the aesthetics and function of our deck/etc His small crew is courteous ,conscientious,and hard working. The only small problem we gad---was the schd. slipped out a little for completion---but most delays were due to Scott wanting the details to be correct and the quality to be better and some changes/mods we requested. And ultimately the quality and workmanship and good looks of the project outweighed the short delays. We would definitely recommend Scott and Western Wood for your wood working home improvement projects. He is knowledgeable,personable,and flexible and easy to work with.

I Needed an unordinary crown molding job done in my office. Scott didn't hesitate to tackle on the job the next day. Not only did he do a great job with the complicated project, he also went above and beyond by calking and painting areas that needed to be done. He was very polite, professional, clean, and timely in all areas. 5 star recommendation.

FAQs

How did you get started doing this type of work?
I grew up working for my Dad. He noticed I preferred Lincoln Logs to Legos. Meaning wood, not plastic. I've been making things out of wood since before I could ride a bike. To be still doing it is all that I could want from a career.
Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
Craftsmen Bungalows were built with VGDF (vertical grain doug fir). Unfortunately, it was painted over back in the 20's. You do NOT need to buy new wood (you already have it), or pay for it to be replaced. Nine out of ten times, once the paint is stripped, the wood looks beautiful with a stain/sealer. Somewhat messy, but more than worth the money and time as you're home is now a vintage display of old-world craftsmanship.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Ask them to bring their crew to your home before you hire them. Then make sure that's who actually comes into your home.
