Introduction: STOP!!!! PLEASE read my profile!! It's important that you know what I do , and that is specialty work.. I am a retired licensed general contractor. I recently relocated from Orange County to the East Bay. I was one of the top rated pros in the most affluent areas (Irvine, Lake forest, Costa Mesa, Newport, San Juan Capistrano, etc.). I am a one man operation, sometimes I will include a helper. I like to work with general contractors on their trim packages. I have been specializing in accent walls and panel work; from California moderne to Boisserie, Board and batten, wainscoting, coffered ceilings, and shiplap walls and ceilings. Crown molding also. Price really depends on conditions and details. I DO NOT PAINT. My painting makes my work look ok. A pro painter makes my work look wonderful! I will come take a look and give a price if the job is not too far away. Otherwise, phone and pictures help to price a project. Because I am a one-man operation, my overhead is low, but I can handle many of the projects general contractors do. I keep the job site clean and safe, always protecting finished surfaces in my work area. I am punctual and reliable. I do my utmost to do the job without shortcuts, preventing call backs.

John is a highly skilled trim and finish carpenter. He expertly replaced side and head casings in our living room. We were matching the woodwork in previously renovated rooms and had a hard time finding the right header cap. John kindly recommended a substitute that worked well for us. He did a great job for us.

John did an excellent job with all of the finished carpentry work at our new home that he completed in connection with our remodel. From shiplap to wainscoating to window casing to crown molding to door casing - he does it all and well. What set John apart from most craftsman was his punctuality, communication and organization. John was always on time with a great attitude. We loved working with him and would welcome the opportunity to do so again. Thanks for the great work! You added the character to make our house a home!

John was a huge help when we were in a bind and needed a finish carpenter to patch our old craftsman’s wainscoting. He told us exactly what we needed to get, showed up on time, and got the job done in a timely manner. The work turned out beautifully. A perfect match! And we were so happy we hired him to fix something else for us right away. We hope to work with him again soon.

My husband and I spoke with about 3 moulding installers and was absolutely impressed with John's knowledge and we hired him. His work and price value is 2nd to none. He did an excellent job. Kept his work area clean and knew exactly what he was doing and brought our crown moulding project to a beautiful finish. We highly recommend him. Mr. & Mrs. John & Dawn Wright. Anaheim

Details: Crown molding • Drywall • No, I will need the carpenter to provide the molding or trim • This is just an installation job - no design needed • As recommended by carpenter • I would like it painted

John is just the best. He installed several hundred feet of baseboards and window and door casings for me. He also put up several shiplap walls, and built me some incredible built-in benches and cabinet tops. He was absolutely key to my project success and I’m certain I’ll work with him again. His attention to detail and quality workmanship is hard to find these days. I would give him 10 stars if I could. He’s also great to have around the project site for general advice given his many years of experience in building and carpentry.

Details: Baseboards • Casing • Wainscoting (less common) • Drywall • Plaster • No, I will need the carpenter to provide the molding or trim • This is just an installation job - no design needed • As recommended by carpenter • I do not need it painted or stained
