Carpentry Plus Building Inc

Brad was amazing, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He was able to give us a quote through email by viewing some pictures of the proposed project. (He really worked with our budget too!) Since the quote was through email, he was able to get the project started incredibly quickly, since we didn't require an in-home visit to do the estimate. We had originally asked for just the wood paneling and wet bar/cabinetry to be removed. Brad did this super fast. However, once that was down, we realized the drywall was in really bad shape, and it needed to be completely replaced. We also needed some of the wiring reworked. Brad gave us an estimate, and again, was able to work within our budget. Even though he was incredibly busy, he was able to work us in between other jobs and finished up well within our proposed timeframe. Brad kept the room clean and kept us up-to-date on how the job was progressing. He will be our first call when we're ready to move ahead with additional projects!

Called ahead to say when he would be arriving at the house, and placed plastic runners over my carpet so as not to dirty it. Did the job in a timely and tidy manner and cleaned up well after he was done with the work.

Responsible, hardworking, professional from start to finish. Finished work on time.

I am very happy with the service I received. Brad was VERY good to work with! He was prompt with responding with a quote and even "squeezed" my job in to get it done before there was any water damage to the roof. He contacted me the day that he was coming out and *voila* when I came home from work that evening the job was done! The repair was done well and the area was free of debris. (I have had repairmen leave large messes behind and I appreciated having no mess to clean this time.) I will definitely contact him for future repairs.

See previoius comments. The project went exceptionally well start to finish. No complaints. Finished product is everything I'd hoped for and more.

They seemed okay. We just got a bid on some work but we didn’t end up using them. We didn’t do the project actually.

Brad did a great job with this project! He got the tile removed quicker than expected. He kept us informed as he progressed with the project. He did a great job with the joist repair which was necessary to make sure the new toilet would not sink like the old one. Brad had a big challenge with the installation of the tub and surround because the old window trim and floor register made the installation of a 32" tub impossible. Brad helped us find a 30" tub surround and did a great job of making everything fit. The window trim looks great and he replaced the old register with a new smaller register which looks much more modern than the original unit. All of the trim work looks great. Brad worked with Plumber Randy and did a great job replacing all the old cast iron plumbing. In addition, they took on some additional work outside the scope of the project to replace an enclosed sump pump in the laundry area and bringing the plumbing up to code to allow us to use the basin in the laundry room again. We would be happy to use Brad again in the future.

The work went very well! Brad was always on time, very professional. When he had others working on site, was always on top of what was happening & kept good track of the work. He also worked well with the park manager at the time, Harry Jones, and was willing to work within the limits set by the regulations of the mobile home park Sycamore Village. He was very quick in his work, but accurate, no sloppiness at all. Work site was orderly from start to finish of all projects done at this site. He was also willing to take the time to explain just what was going to be done & time expected for work to be finished. He did well at staying within the time limits he set for the work. I'd recommend him to anybody who asks.

Brad is extremely prompt - we contacted him via e-mail through the Angie's list site and he got back to me the same day. We were communicating through the e-mails, as this was the easiest for us. With the pictures of the area that needed repairs and our description of it, he provided us with the estimate and gave us the rough scenario what might be encountered as the work was being done. he was very accurate, and very detailed. Because of his and ours schedules we agreed to have the work done when we were out of town. We just left the materials we could provide and he worked on this as promised. He was very prompt in answering any questions, and the work was done according to our discussion ahead of time. We found everything done, clean and ready when we got back. We also asked him to look at some repairs that we needed to the garage walk-in door and he provided us with the estimate. We were so happy with the work he did for us that we accepted his offer and had him do other repairs as well. His professionalism and promptness in contacting us and addressing all our inquiries makes these repairs an example for everybody else.

Mr. Greene never came out to my house but instead gave me a quote via email after receiving the kitchen remodel design (via email) from Home Depot where I purchased the majority of the materials needed. I felt that his quote was outrageously high, and my conclusion for this was because he really wasn't interest in doing my project. He might have lowered his prices because of his statement to "Please let me know what you think of these prices and if they are what you had in mind spending." At the time I had nothing to compare it with, but once I received a second quotation, I knew he was out of any further consideration.

Brad worked with us throughout the project, he explained options, and gave us all the choices without forcing us to compromise on quality or price. He was able to deliver several amazing upgrades not included in our original plans including a huge egress window that provided fantastic natural light, and decoratively framing out the duct work and beams to maximize head space. He worked with multiple sub contractors who were all courteous, prompt, and highly skilled.

We received a prompt email declining the work because we were out of his district.

They did as they said they would and were very professional. I liked their services and will use the same in future.

This was the second time we had Brad do work for us and he did an excellent job. We needed to get a new sink and disposal put in before an upcoming bridal shower and Brad accomodated us even with his extremely busy schedule. The faucet he put in was one of the new Delta ones that turn on and off just by touching it. Brad had never installed one of these before, and even though it was quite a challenge, he stayed about twice as long as he was expecting late into the evening to finish the job without having to come back another day. We are already hiring him for some electrical and drain tile installation in the next couple of weeks. Thanks Brad!

Brad was able to do the work the day after I called him. He was late for the appointment because the previous job he was on had taken longer than he had anticipated. He did call as soon as he could to make sure it was okay to stop by. He was able to fix my leaking kitchen faucet and my toilet right away with no problems or parts. He did have to get parts for my out-door frost- free faucet, which had to be replaced. I have been looking for hinges for my front door for some time with no luck. Brad was able to get them that day and replace them. He also noticed that I needed a seal for my door and replaced that as well. He also removed some warped plastic trim from the door allowing me to prep the door for paint. He was also able to give me some estimates on a few other jobs that I need to have done in the future. Brad was professional and cleaned up completely. I will call him again.

We had Brad come in to remodel a walk-in closet, as well as installing some shelving units in the garage. He was punctual when he showed up to look at our place, and was very patient with our questions. He was able to give us a variety of options in terms of the materials that he will use, the design of the closet/garage space, and such. He gave us a preliminary quote for the closet and garage before he left, and the final quote that included the floor price was provided to us after a day. He was able to fit our job into his schedule within a week or so, and he finished one day before he said he would. Brad was clean and neat and kept the working area tidy. We were very impressed and will definitely hire him back for future renovation jobs.

The job went very well. In his estimate he also included some helpful suggestions and recommendations that could be implemented either with this current job or in the future (he included an itemized costs for these). He was professional and corteous. As he was proceeding with his work he noticed that a window in the lower level of the house was in desperate need of replacement, he was able to add this to our contract and still finish the job in a timely manner. The area was kept quite neat. And the house looks fabolous. We are very happy with the job.

Brad got to the house promptly, gave us a realistic estimate and time frame, kept us informed on the work, and worked quickly. He left the work area clean and followed through quickly on billing. The work is what we had hoped for. We would use Carpentry Plus in the future. I did not get other estimates and am leaving the cost off for now. Brad was very good about letting us know if costs changed as the problem unfolded.

I am very happy with the job! Brad Greene, the owner, did an excellent job of installing the tub, tile, and ceiling fan. The existing drywall in my house is 3/4 inches thick, covered by about 1/8 inch of plaster. The few patches I've made never come out flush without hours of patching and sanding over and over again. Brad's drywall work is a perfect match to the existing adjacent work. The work was completed sooner than Brad estimated, except for the extra drywall work. Even that only took longer because of the care taken to apply a thin coat of plaster over the drywall to match the existing. I think most contractors would have thrown up a sheet of drywall and called it quits. I obtained another bid for the work beforehand that came in $500 above the Carpentry Plus estimate. I would not hesitate to recommend Carpentry Plus for a similar project. Brad's work is excellent quality and he is very responsive to questions and phone calls.

It went well. Brad was very considerate of the time. Things had to be messed up in order for him to do the jobs. Very thoughtful.

Contacted the company in November, received an estimate immidiately. This job went very quickly from start to finish, the only delay was waiting for the windows to arrive. Mr Greene showed up in a timely manner and made sure that he kept the area exceptionally tidy. He was always extremely professional. This job was performed in the middle of winter and yet Mr. Greene made sure that everything was ready for the installation before he removed the existing windows so that we would have minimum heat loss. Definitely recommend this company. In fact I plan on using them again real soon to have new siding installed.

Working with Brad was extremely convenient. I was able to contact him and talk about the problem and we discussed ideas over the phone. I sent Brad pictures of the areas that needed repair (a piece of detached siding and a separate chimney flashing leak) and he was able to schedule a time to fix the areas when I was at work. Brad came by, fixed the areas based upon our conversation and the pictures, and then sent an invoice via e-mail. The work was sound and I haven't had any problems since. In fact, I called Brad initially because the first handyman that "fixed" the problem didn't quite do the job. Not only did Brad complete the work effectively, he said that if there was a problem with the job or if the siding became detached, he would come back out and make things right. Nice guarantee - but he did the work right the first time and no problems since! He accepted payment via PayPal, further increasing the convenience of working with him. I really liked how I was able to coordinate everything over the phone and e-mail with Brad (including payment). This is the type of convenience and workmanship that is rare to find in providers. I have kept Brad's information and plan to work with him moving forward, especially as the weather is turning warmer! Highly recommended!

Brad is fantastic. He remodeled our bathroom in the fall, so we asked him to return to help us with the closets. He listened to our needs, viewed the old spaces, and came up with a plan (detailed drawing) for his recommendations for a new organizing system. Each closet was a different size/shape and in different places in the house. He thought of every possible way we would use the space, and accommodated us. The result is just great: Overflow pantry off the kitchen that has increased our storage by 10-fold compared to its original shape; outfitted the cedar closet on our second floor to be truly useful. The amount of space we have for storage is incredible. Plus, with the custom shelving, each closet solution perfectly fits our lifestyle and needs. In addition, it's nice to have sturdy shelves, made of wood, and customized by function.....so much better than those flimsy organization units that cost a boat-load and never really fit the space well.

Excellent to work with. Does great work, excellent prices. I asked a plumber to install a shower veil and was blown away at how much he was asking. Brad's price to do the same work was less than half what the plumber wanted and he did a great job. Would highly recommend.

Communication was excellent... Work was done promptly and very professionally. I was totally satisfied with the results.
