Brian did a terrific job installing attic stairs in our shop. He showed up on time as scheduled and got right to work. Watching him, it was obvious he knew what he was doing to build up the area to support the stairs. He knows a lot of those "old carpenter tricks" to make the installation correct. I look forward to working with him again on more projects around our house. J and J
