Wood-N-Things

He was phenomenal. He just really went extra mile. He was responsive and did a great work.

Work was performed in the time it was quoted, but left out some caulking and trim adjustments. Pretty much got what I paid for.

We found a deal on Angie's List for $200 for door replacement, but new we would pay more for fixtures, door, new screen door, etc. They arrived on time and did the work described. Brain actually purchased the door and new screen door on our behalf at the local Home Depot. When he began the installation he used the old hinges, but we asked for new ones, so he stopped work, went back to HD and got new hinges. The day after completion of the job I noticed that some nails by the lock were pushing out the window moulding so we called for a follow up. He came back without question within a couple of days and fixed the moulding. The only thing that I would change: I should have purchased the door in advance, so I could have painted it before installation. I now have an unpainted front door. I don't mind painting it, but to do this correctly I need to loosen the hinges, and lock to avoid painting over these fixtures!

Brian is very professional from his proposals to time management on the job. It made the construction experience much easier.

Brian was very responsive, on time and is an excellent craftsman. I also had a short and narrow timeframe for completion, and this was met.

Brian was on time, took necessary care with the carpentry and installation and it is a pleasure to have doors that work.

Evidently my piddly job was not important enough to warrant a return phone call since they couldn't even be bothered to acknowledge my request for help (no phone call, no email, no nothing). Adding this company to my list of those who will never get my business or the business of my friends or family. Actually none of the companies I found on Angie's List returned my calls. That's $17 down the toilet.

Brian does a great job, and obviously loves his profession.

Brian gave me a quote for the work which involved removal of the old storm door, removal of the old exterior door, reframing as needed, and installation of the new door including all finish trim. The job was more involved than he planned for -- this is a 108-year-old house, and when he removed the old door and trim he found that the reframing was more involved than what was expected. There was also a problem with reconnecting the security alarm sensor which he had to disconnect when removing the old door trim. Even though the job required more time and materials than he based his quote one, Brian didn't even mention additional cost and just charged what he'd quoted. The end result is extremely professional and just what we wanted. Another thing -- the only evidence that he'd even been there was the new door. He thoroughly cleaned up all dust and debris.

First Brian measured to provide an estimate for a replacement deck. After my husband and I selected Brian for the job, he met with us to outline his plan of work. Then we paid him to for the Trex decking material. Brian worked every day, Monday through Friday, not weekends to remove the old deck and build the new one. When the deck was completed to our satisfaction, we paid him in full. Because we liked Brian?s work, we asked him if he would give us a bid to add a lattice fence top above our established fence. He did. Brian built all the lattice sections in his shop. Each section had to fit like a puzzle to match the established fence. When he brought all the sections over to install, it took him a day to anchor each section. We highly recommend Brian Tilson of Wood-N-Things.

Excellent work. Highly recommended.

Bryan works quickly and efficiently. He makes quality work. Each job took one day and he would have been done after the third day but one piece of wood dried and broke in the heat. He came back for a couple hours the next week and fixed it for free, no questions asked. Totally professional.

We moved from Indiana to Colorado and had horrible movers. They snapped the end of my handmade Amish bed footboard off. I contacted Wood-n-Things and received a prompt response. They came to my home, took the footboard to their shop for repair and had it back to me within a day or two as promised. They even offered to help assemble the bed. Looks good as new. Would use them again.

Brian works primarily alone and I had to just be patient. He was about a week behind. Trust me. He will get back to you and you will be glad you hired him. Best contractor I've ever had in my home.

I am extremely happy with the work that was done!

He was very good and accommodating. He did a very good job and everything worked out fine. I would use him again in the future.

Brian was professional from the first email contact about this job. He was busy with many projects but promised to contact me in a month when he had more availability and he did!! He gave me a reasonable estimate on the work and always showed up on time. The refinishing of the door took a little more work than anticipated but he was able to fit the extra time in his schedule and mine and the finished product is fantastic!! I would definitely hire him for any project around my house.

Wood-N-Things did an excellent job putting crown molding around my sun room. This was a very difficult job since my ceiling was uneven on one side and it took great skill to hide the imperfection and make the molding look beautiful. My room looks stunning and I am very pleased with it!Brian and his helper came on time on Wednesday and began to measure everything very carefully. They moved some furniture to enable them to work. Then they began to nail up the molding. After the molding was up they very carefully painted it. When they were finished, they replaced the furniture and cleaned up the room. I am very happy with the results.

The work went extremely well, as usual.

Excellent work and attention to detail. Brian insures the materials are of the best quality. He worked hard to make sure the project was done correctly. We are very happy with the results. We used Brian on a door project and were so impressed we asked him to come back and build our deck.

Brian and his helper were perfect, I am very pleased with the work and now know who to call for any of my wood working in the future. Brian is an artist if one can be an artist at fencing. I had called a couple fence companies for estimates along with Wood N Things and the fence companies were double the price of Wood N Things. The job Brian and his helper did was fantastic. I hope Brain out lives me because he has all my future business when it comes to wood.

Left phone message on 4/6/2012 inquiring about his service. Still no response by 4/19/2012. Perhaps he is extremely busy. Didn't mean to give him an "F" but the options were limited. A "Did not respond" button would be more appropriate. The "F" is not a measure of his service.

He truly is a master carpenter, who has worked for us often over many years. We regard him as the #1 finished carpenter in the Denver area. He always is punctual, thorough, incredibly competent, very fair and reliable. He gives a detailed plan of the job beforehand, with a reasonable estimate of costs. His making us a birdhouse now was basically a gift that he surprised us with.

Brian did an excellent job. The job was done quickly, professionally and the door looks beautiful.

Brian was absolutely professional, punctual, and courteous. He worked tirelessly and completed the job in a timely manner. He was very accomodating. When one piece had to be reordered because the designer had not measured correctly, he had to complete the job on additional days. So completing the job meant he had to make a separate trip from his workshop after the new piece arrived. He also stained and installed molding purchased separately and matched the cabinets perfectly. He did a great job of cleaning up after each day's work. He was very easy to work with and totally knowledgeable about his craft. I would use him again without a doubt.
