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.

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.

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.

This was a complex project requiring precision across multiple disciplines, and the team delivered flawlessly on every front.

Interior Finishing: The drywall work and painting (both inside and out) were handled with meticulous care, leaving the office looking better than the original build. Product Quality: They selected and installed an excellent XO configuration window by Imperium, which has completely transformed the light and feel of the space. What impressed me most was their professionalism regarding logistics. TNT navigated the Carlsbad city permitting and inspection process with ease, ensuring everything was carried out in a timely, compliant, and careful fashion. A special thanks goes to the project manager, Ethan Dreiman.

It is rare to find a firm that balances high-end technical skill with such proactive communication. I highly recommend TNT Design & Build for any homeowner looking for high-quality, stress-free renovations.
