About

For over 30 years, I’ve built a career as a trim carpenter, millwork designer, molding expert, and faux finisher. I take pride in precise, clean work and bringing out the best in every space. Whether you need detailed finish carpentry, new trim or moulding installed, or expert picture and art hanging, I focus on craftsmanship, clear communication, and respect for your home. My profile images show a range of the designs, materials, and finishes I work with. If you’re looking for high-quality finish work with attention to detail from a small, dedicated team, I’d be happy to talk about your project. Thank you, Dominic

Don was great to work with. We talked through the work before he did it, exchanged ideas, and the final outcome was exactly what I was looking for. The task was to make a custom floor transition/threshold for a door entryway and around my fireplace base. I am generally critical of work being done and I am truly happy with the outcome of this work.

Dom did a fantastic job for us -- and truly saved our foyer renovation project! We had a disappointing experience with another contractor who misrepresented their carpentry skills – and couldn’t deliver what we wanted. Dom came in, immediately understood the design issues, and offered smart, professional solutions to get us back on track. The picture frame moulding design he installed in our stairwell looks awesome! He was meticulous in his work—from precision installation to thorough cleanup—and delivered everything within the exact timeframe he promised. His craftsmanship and attention to detail are outstanding, and he handled a stressful situation with total professionalism. We’re incredibly grateful we found him—and without question, we’ll be asking Dom back for future projects in our home. If you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing and takes pride in their work, Dom is your guy.
