About
I started as a carpenter after graduating college, and have never looked back. Three years as an entry level carpenter, 5 years as a lead carpenter managing full remodels, and 6 more as a site supervisor leading other carpenters and managing jobsite. I love getting to see a millwork or carpentry project come together, piece by piece!

Hired on Thumbtack

I hired Alex based on his Thumbtack self-description, his day job and a gut feeling I had after our text correspondence. I gave him a fairly comprehensive description of my project (21 feet of bookcases needed bases and crown molding) and he helped me iron out a few details because he can think on his feet. He estimated the number of hours it would take him and the cost of supplies and gave me a quote I agreed to. He showed up promptly on the scheduled dates, worked three full days and was even able to accommodate some extra tasks I threw at him last minute. His quote was spot on; it wasn’t a wild guess and the final product was well worth it. He’s a good communicator, conscientious and a solid carpenter. My bookcases look fantastic and I’d hire him again in a second. When I need a carpenter in the future I’m calling him first. I've uploaded photos of the bookcases before I caulk, fill nail holes and paint to emphasize Alex's craftsmanship.
