So quick and easy! I found this company from Angi and they responded to my request within 15 min. Our bed support beams needed repair and a redesign. Lucky sent Mike and he did a great job analyzing the problem and what our issues were with the bed. He came up with a plan, bought the parts and returned to finish the project. Our broken bed had been a problem for months and we did not know how to fix it ourselves. I am so happy that we found Gorman Carpentry and Restoration. They did a great job for a reasonable rate. I would definitely use them again in the future.

Stairs on my 3rd floor deck broke and were hanging in mid- air. I needed someone to remove them ASAP, inspect the deck and make the repairs. Lucky got David out to remove the stairs same day when no one else would. David did a great job in a light rain. Thanks again David.

They called me back the same day as my Angi request and offered to come fix my window casings the very next morning. The workman showed up on time and did a great job. Would definitely recommend to others.

We had a major structural issue in our new house that had been identified during a home inspection. Prior contractors who had installed plumbing and HVAC in the basement had compromised the key supports for the house and put pipes and vents in the way of them. Gorman Restoration was just what we needed. They came up with a practical solution for the structural problem and also fixed some inadequate plumbing in the process. The work is top quality--you can feel the floors are more solid. And the cost was at the low end of what our home inspector and structural engineer said a project like this would likely cost. They were also dependable and professional when they were in the house. This company shows up when they say they will; they are not the type of contractor that takes a check and disappears. We'll be hiring them for future remodel needs for sure.

Hired Lucky to repair/replace interior doors. Lucky was very considerate and flexible to my situation. I had a prior contractor walk off the job, due to a disagreement with his partner, right before thanksgiving having only completed barely half the job and at an extremely poor quality. Lucky sent Mike who was able to save and restore my current doors. Mike was extremely hardworking and was able to finish the job earlier than the original quoted time frame. Will be using Lucky again to finish and fix the prior terrible contractors work, ie painting/minor repairs.

I hired Lucky Gorman to assess an exterior door between our outdoor balcony and hallway. The original builder did not install and seal correctly and water was getting into the unit as a result. Lucky and his associate Christian were knowledgeable and responsive. They sourced a new door and also replaced the wood trim and baseboard that had water damage. The quality of the work was great and I would hire them again .

I needed an exterior door and storm door replaced because it’s was never originally installed correctly. Also a bathroom pocket door repaired. Lucky and his carpenter Christian evaluated the project correctly and quickly got to work. Christian is highly skilled, worked efficiently and left us feeling very comfortable working in our home. I will us Gorman again for future projects and recommend.

Would not re-hire the company. The project took weeks when it should have taken days. Consistent problems getting materials and workers. The company did not complete the project. When I told the owner he would not get a 5-star rating, he ghosted me and left the project unfinished.

Gorman Restoration is not cheap. Start from there. They will not cut corners, nor will they ignore problems. (Be prepared for a phone call that starts with "We need you to take a look at something." That's never good news.) I hired them to replace my front steps; they discovered significant water damage with structural considerations. It's all been repaired and I've got a great looking set of steps that fit in with the styles on the block.

Working with Gorman Restoration was an absolute pleasure. They tore down and removed some old wood steps leading out from my house to my back yard and replaced them with beautiful new steps and small deck. Honestly, the steps turned out better than I imagined. Lucky reached out to me the day I posted for this project on Angi. He and Christian stopped by my house multiple times to discuss the project before starting, just to make sure what they were proposing was what I wanted. Lucky's leadership, professionalism, and communication is top-notch. Christian's carpentry skills are amazing. He also communicated with me every step of the way to make sure the project was proceeding the way I expected. I cannot recommend Gorman Restoration highly enough. Thank you for everything.
