Ray came out and did a thorough look over of our porch and only fixed what was needed. I really appreciated this since other people wanted to replace the whole porch and be instead focused on what was needed. He also did the work himself along with a partner so good to know the person you hire does the work. We had some back and forth challenges in getting a hold of one another that took a longer to start the work than we wanted but once we connected Ray did a great job. We were unhappy with one board so he replaced it when we asked with no complaints. Ray is a nice guy who is honest and does quality work.

Ray came out to replace my wooden stairs and did a wonderful job plus he cleaned up all the garbage. Ray gave me a reasonable price. I would definitely say that Ray is honest, efficient, and takes pride in his work. I had a wonderfully honest experience. Would recommend him to anyone needing carpentry work.

Ray was great to communicate with, did quality work at a fair price. Ray and the man who came to help out were great to work with. I made some changes to the shoe base and they were both flexible with me and helped me to make the best decision. They were careful with my new flooring with is important for me. Ray is honest, efficient and the work he did looks great. I had a pleasant experience and would recommend him to anyone needing carpentry work.

Ray was easy to work with for a number of reasons: he proposed materials that made sense for the application, he provided a lot of samples for us to allow proper matching, he communicated well, came when he said he would, started the job when he said he would, and finished the job on time. He provided a budget and stuck to it. He even fixed an outlet we didn't know was out free of charge. Highly recommend and will use again.

We had our front porch stairs, railings, etc. completely replaced. We had a step that was rotting through and splintering and the whole thing was showing a lot of wear and tear. Ray got back to us immediately and scheduled something within a week or two. The whole replacement project took just part of an afternoon. Our next door neighbors saw the job being done and kept telling us how fast and efficient he was. The stairs look amazing now, plus he thoughtfully added side panels where there was an opening before to keep critters out, which I greatly appreciate! We were so happy with the job and will definitely hire them again.

Ray was amazing to work with!! He called me right away, looked at my project and gave me options within my budget, he called to let me know if the time line needed to change based on the material I chose and finished the project so fast. Not only was Ray and his team very professional but they kept the job site clean (I have small children) I highly recommend them for any project ur looking to complete.
