KMS Custom Carpentry

After sterling work on our first job, he left us hanging and failed to return numerous calls regarding a second job.

Originally called in because of mysterious water damage to some baseboards and we wanted better doorstops than the house came with (all moldings were and quot;medium density fibreboardand quot; and too flimsy for the usual stuff). He gave us a firm estimate, a clear timetable. Both were quite reasonable, and he honored them. On seeing mold behind the baseboards, he advised looking into the walls a bit, and sure enough, there was mold there too. A lot, but localized. It appeared to have come from a water heater that had previously failed and been replaced. Full treatment of the situation would require at least temporary removal of the existing water-heater, and he recommended a plumber for that. We decided to do some other plumbing as well, and he and the other guy collaborated well on getting it done with minimum disturbance. At every stage, we got written quotes, reasonable timetables, and excellent service. It was a relief after some experiences with other providers to not feel we were oversold or overcharged on any part of this work.
