After self installing a new staircase and rail system we found that the newel posts and hand rails were not stable enough. Jeremy came to our rescue and basically had to reinstall all the posts and hand rails to insure they were safely secured into the walls and floors. Jeremy did a great job for us. We highly recommend him for any stair jobs you may have.

We were struggling to find and hire a right person for our stair railing project and was lucky to find Jeremy. He did a great job and we are satisfied with his work which was done within our budget. He is very professional and flexible. He wont close the project, until we are satisfied. We were always worried how this project will come up as the existing stair walls need be remodeled with stair railing but with his experience and guidance, it came very well and we are enjoying it.

Jeremy was an absolute pleasure to work with. He had great ideas and he's a true craftsman. He installed wrought iron balusters.
Jeremy is the man. We had a broken step from me falling down the stairs and landing on it (turned one step on our stairwell into a "V" shape) and he fixed it expeditiously and professionally. If you have any stair repair needs, he's your guy!

We needed stair rails & spindles for a staircase that had none. Jeremy did a great job designing the project, especially an awkward support at the top of one of the rails. He was very RESPONSIVE & PROFESSIONAL. He was very communicative & honest about pricing & scheduling. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jeremy!

FAQs
How did you get started doing this type of work?
My dad was always known as the only finish carpenter in the family out of six boys. After he passed away I chose to be the best finish carpenter to make him proud, and have been working and honing my skill since I was 16. I have no doubt he would be proud.
Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
I committed to a kitchen remodel where my client stated her kitchen felt small and dark. I began suggesting ideas that hadn’t been though of at that point. We ended up removing the pantry closet, removing the adjacent wall and door to the secondary laundry room (she used the one down stairs and this was empty space) and turned it into a butler pantry. This opened the whole house up, leaving her with an open kitchen, extra space and storage, and a homey atmosphere. It is alway going to be a favorite project.
