Jim and his crew were amazing. Jim is a master carpenter and his son, Zack is a GC. The crew ( Edgar and Victor) showed up everyday at 7am and worked nonstop on rebuilding my 30y/o deck which had rotted out. No corners were cut. The job was exquisite. Absolutely no complaints or disappointments. Very easy to work with. Said it would take 5 days and it did plus it was a big project. If you are going to choose carpenter, choose Jim’s Carpentry. His reviews and skill set speak for itself.

Jim came out to look at the job promptly. He gave a quote for the work. Then he scheduled the job. They showed up on time. The job was completed and the area was left clean.

Jim and his team did an excellent job with tear down and rebuild of our deck, that included expansion, at a fair price. They were very easy to work with and Jim was very responsive.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I really need to see the project in order to give an exact price. My rate ranges from $20 to $40 per hour depending on the complexity of the work.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to meet with them to see what they are looking to do. Then I give them additional ideas if requested. I alway want to have a clear process of what will be the steps I will follow to completing the work.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have over 30 years experience in construction and have my construction supervisor license.
