About

Need a hand around the house? I'm your guy! I'm a reliable, friendly, and detail-oriented individual with a knack for fixing, assembling, and improving things. My passion for woodworking and cabinetmaking (longtime hobbies of mine) mean I have a keen eye for quality craftsmanship and a problem-solver's mindset. Whether it is wobbly chair, a picture that needs hanging, flat-pack furniture that's defeating you, or a custom woodworking project you've been dreaming of, I'm here to help you get it done efficiently and to a high standard. I come equipped with my own tools, a can-do attitude, and a commitment to leaving your space better than I found it. Let's chat about your project.

Very easy process all the way through. Less than 24 hours after connecting with Gary Zeal, my new mail box is installed and he also fixed a door of mine that was sticking, and all at a reasonable price. Nice guy. Responsive. Flexible. On Time. Made it all easy.

Although I have not executed this project yet, Woodworking with Zeal has offered me a lot of excellent advise and alternatives I had not thought of, with no pressure to award them the job. Very refreshing! Thanks

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 • Solid wood • I do not need it painted or stained

Woodworking with Zeal's reply

Thank you, James. I hope your crown molding comes out well.
