Wow! I don’t have enough good things to say about TS carpentry. Ricardo was responsive from the minute I posted the need for help to showing up exactly on time! I am expecting and we are trying to finish renovating the nursery. I was at my wits end trying to get crown molding up. I posted the job and RS Carpentry responded in minutes. Not only that they came in as the lowest quote with the fastest start date!! He showed up exactly on time- he was so efficient and clearly detailed oriented. The trim looks fantastic!! We are so happy we are looking for more help from Ricardo. If you want 10/10 work done- RS Carpentry is who to call!

Spoke with Ricardo on Thumbtack and he gave me a quote. Came on a Saturday and finished the whole job in one day with his brother. He scribed skirtboard and installed the remaining trim in the basement. He was polite, answered our questions and stayed within the estimate he had given. Scribing the stairs is fine carpentry work and takes a talented carpenter. Ricardo was able to make this look great and handle some difficult transition. Was very happy and would recommend.

My experience with Ricardo from RS carpentry was truly remarkable. I sent him pictures and measurements requesting a quote for my project which I received the next day. A few days later he came to my home to assess the project. Within a week my project was done - in one day! He did a fantastic job installing crown around my hallway and basement stairwell. The molding he chose beautifully coordinates with the adjacent living room. He took time to wrap the corners for a finished look. He also worked his magic to incorporate an existing, intricate piece of molding which came out gorgeous and seamless. I highly recommend Ricardo and will have him back when I remodel my kitchen. He’s responsive, prompt, efficient, and conscientious… a great experience start to finish.
