Tim was great to work with. He kept me informed and sent pictures daily on the progress of each project and tasked. He is very kind and trustworthy. I can't thank him enough or sing enough praises regarding him. I would hire him again and will recommend him to all my friends and family.

We replaced the old vinyl siding with Hardie Board siding, installed new roofs over porches, and replaced one porch completely. Tim is a pleasure to work with and his work is top-notch! He is honest, fair, and kept us advised all the way through our project. When he found our back porch could not be repaired, he was straight up and gave honest cost to replace it. Our house looks great! I will definitely look to Tim again for future projects.

Tim is a super great person. He showed up on time every day he said he was coming out. Excellent communication about what was needed and what was recommended. His work is fantastic. I would recommend him to anyone. You will not be sorry you hired him. Very happy with the patio enclosure he did for us! Thank you Tim!

Awesome experience with Tim. Showed up to give bid when he said. Started work shortly after. Very professional and takes pride in his work. Every contractor should learn from this guy.

If you are looking for great quality, reliable, and fair pricing, look no further than West County Carpentry. You will work directly with the owner, Tim. We recently bought a home around Cobden IL and needed the old 2nd-story deck replaced. The old deck was under-built and rotting. Tim removed it and built a beautiful new 2nd story deck. Tim also used some of our left-over siding to repair and fix areas where the previous deck had been: Looks great! Safety was a #1 concern of ours, and Tim did a great job. The quality of his work is fantastic, and Tim worked with us under challenging circumstances (he had to change sources of some of the building supplies at the last minute due to COVID-19 so that our 2-story deck could be completed on-time). I cannot recommend Tims West County Carpentry enough.

Wow! Where to start? Tim gave me a precise plan and projected budget. He was extremely professional and his work is very accomplished. The work is beautiful, no shortcuts or surprises. When a question arose, Tim always had a constructive solution . I was sorry to end my Construction because it was so seamless and effortless on my part. Hire Tim to do your work and you will not regret it

We hired Tim Philpott through Home Adviser and couldn't be happier with the professionalism and quality of work. Tim and Mike are doing an exceptional job and are very qualified carpenters. If these are the kinds of people you always send, we'll be using your website again in the future! Mike & Sue Flood

I wanted a screened-in porch to replace my deck. But for my budget Tim was able to build a sunporch with windows that can be used almost year around. I love it. Tim had to work around my husband's schedule (sleeps days) and winter weather, but he was here every day possible and arranged for all deliveries to be made on time every step of the way. He stayed in close contact and discussed every aspect of the project with me. He removed my old deck and also poured a new concrete patio and walkway. He made the project enjoyable...so easy to work with and did an excellent job. Highly recommended

Although the quote was higher than another it was more detailed. He was easy to work with. The quality of work was outstanding. He added to our deck for a spa.

Tim is very knowledgeable and did a great job planning and building our 16 x 32 ft covered deck. I have already asked him to help me with several other jobs around my house.

Tim was easy to work with and very quick to get the job done. When we asked him to even install a door, he had it done in no time. We would definitely recommend him.
