About

In person estimates only. I've specialized in finish carpentry, door installation, and cabinet building and installation for over 15 years. I'll never accept a final payment until you're happy with my work. Full disclosure, this is side work for me to supplement income from my full time job (finish carpenrty, of course), so I won't be able to be there on weekdays. Any questions? Just ask!

From beginning to end it was a smooth and wonderful experience. He came out right away and provided a competitive rate with quality work. He finished sooner than expected and gave a discount because he’s an honest man. I’d hire for any carpentry projects you have.1

James replaced my baseboards throughout the house and I'm super pleased. He is very responsive, punctual and easy to work with. He's one of those progressionals that I trust and feel like he's getting it done the right way. I'm looking forward to having James help with other projects in the future.
