Our project has a particular challenge - our Gazebo floor has to be sloped properly to drain water and prevent flooding. One of the selected review photos will highlight situation if you look closely enough at the feet I was really worried about this problem, but Yury and his team came up with creative solutions to make our final vision come to life. Their ingenuity and work ethic kept the project schedule and the project budget on target. When it came time to finish the project, we discussed our remaining concerns, and rest assured, Yury's professionalism, skill, and creativity delivered a fantastic, well finished solution. In very little time, he delivered 3d conceptual designs on the bits of custom work, allowing us to see the final product before making a decision. This made it very easy to understand the vision and left us very comfortable with the direction. He even went the extra mile and made special accommodations to come back and provide the finishing within less than a week.

Charley was our project manager; he kept the project moving forward and was extremely responsive to texts and calls. They helped us change the cabinet layout a bit and it ends up being more functional while also having much more usable space. The flooring and baseboards turned out terrific, it really changes the look and feel of the space. We had picked out something that was not one of their usual suppliers, but that was no problem. They really work with you to get exactly what you want. All the workers were friendly, skilled and left our house clean at the end of the day. My thanks to everyone that worked on our project. Chuck finished the kitchen up and did fine work with our plumbing which required some intricate work to accommodate our layout. I highly recommend Mastercraft and would use them again for any future work.

He also is detailed and pointed out a few things we hadn't thought of in a very low pressure way and gave us some good ideas to consider. I could tell he knows what he's talking about with decks. He was also super friendly - he even asked if my son wanted to say hi to his dog, which my son was stoked about. The estimate was thorough and in the same ballpark as other licensed carpenters. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Shaun on carpentry projects in the future.

The job was small but Shaun was on time and prepared with all the right tools including a chop saw, table saw, hack saw and drill. His work was precise and at a very good pace. I had to replace custom gate slats that were different sizes that also required precision holes to be drilled so they could be placed back onto the metal frame, in the right spots. He did a great job and I will definitely call Shaun for the next job.

We had him out to see if he could fix our ancient door trim and he had some suggestions that would look nice, be affordable, and not open a huge can of worms. His rate per hour is definitely reasonable - we ended up paying half compared to another quote (though to be fair I requested something that was a lot more work and the contractor didn't try to suggest any other ideas). Alejandro's work was wonderful and we are super happy. Thank you - he will definitely be our go-to handyman!

Then I chose to ignore it for an undisclosed length of time...cue the windstorm and wala, more repair than I wanted to deal with.

He came out quickly to assess the situation, gave me his next available start time and took care of the problem like a pro. There were some challenges as the neighbors on the other side of the fence had put up surfboard storage racks, etc. We talked through some additional costs and the end result was better than anticipated. Very pleased - thanks Dave.

I called him and he had completely forgotten about me coming by and like a typical boomer, must not keep an electronic calendar. When he finally showed up we agreed that he would sand, stain, and lacquer the top to remove the damage of 8 years of usage for $400. When I went to pick it up it was apparent that he didn't sand the top at all. Surface scratches and glass marks were still there. I confronted him and he just lied to my face and said he sanded it. Look at the pictures and judge for yourself. This man is a fraud and shouldn't be trusted. I wasn't going to argue with him and then leave my expensive table in his possession, so I paid and left. I asked for my money back by text and he continued to lie to me. I would guess that he just rubbed stain on the cracks and put one layer of lacquer on it. 10 minutes of work. $400.
