About
All around skilled handy person/carpenter. I have built high-end custom cabinetry and museum pieces, ultra-streamlined solutions to meet a budget, and everything in between. I have an architecture degree and 25+ years of experience building, making, troubleshooting and repairing - still love it. Excellent listener and client partner to ensure you love the end product; speedy and meticulous about getting it done. I leave my work area at least as tidy as I found it and take care of any and all any mess created by the project. For custom work, if you have a clear idea (or a fuzzy idea) of what you want to have built, I can help you understand the options, pick materials and a design, and get it done on time and on budget. PLEASE READ: I have a 2-hour minimum for service calls/coming out in person. No charge or time limit for working with clients remotely to review jobs, estimate time requirements, and identify materials and equipment - I want to be sure that I can execute your project once I come on site. For exterior work, nothing 2nd story or higher. I look forward to working with you!

Eric is an absolute pleasure to work with. He is very meticulate and takes the time to go over your vision on what you want done, as well as makes helpful suggestions. The task is then executed flawlessly and he leaves the work area flawless. I would definitely recommend him for anything carpentry related!

I had an attic entry on my second floor big enough for a gnome. Wanting to get the attic insulated, I had to have it widened, so Eric swooped in to help. He explained what he was going to do and then widened it as I wanted, giving me a thing of beauty. It still needs finishing with texture and paint, but I can do that. He cleaned up his workspace, barely living a fingerprint. I will definitely be hiring him again. In fact, I almost wish I had a lot more carpentry projects to keep him busy. He's that good. (And don't you guys go booking him up so that I can't get him again!)

Eric did an outstanding job attaching cabinet pulls to our newly painted kitchen cabinets, as well as handling several other projects in the kitchen. He is highly professional and responsive, very well-prepared, and knowledgeable about what he’s doing. Eric quickly dispelled our uneasiness about hiring someone without a personal recommendation. He exceeded our expectations, and we recommend him highly.

Details: Kitchen • 26-30 • Yes, I need my cabinets assembled • Both wall and base cabinets • No existing cabinets to remove or I will remove them myself • Residential
