    Amazing experience all around! Carlos helped us build a 12'x16' gazebo. He arrived right on time at…read more7am. He originally estimated that it would take them approximately 6 hours, but they had it done and cleaned up in 4 hours! We will definitely use them again in the future!

    I had Carlos and his team assemble our European style kitchen cabinets. They were made of finished…read morewood and lacquer cabinets. We sent our kitchen assembly instructions ahead of time to make sure they were aware. My overall sense is that Carlos is fairly capable and experienced but either his team or him are not as careful as we had damages to our finished wood toe kicks and our lacquer cabinets looked like they had been dragged over nails as they were being assembled. I didn't appreciate that they made 0 mention of it at all and I had to point it out. As the homeowner, I essentially had to baby sit them for 5 days through the install since it felt like they were incapable / unwilling to read the kitchen cabinet installation instructions in detail and I caught several mistakes early on during the cabinet assembly that made me hesitant to leave it unattended. Carlos's attitude was particularly bad through the entire experience as well. Always made it seem like we were inconveniencing him or being too nit picky even if we caught some mistakes. At one point, he even threatened to quit after the assembly but before the installation simply because he had underestimated the complexity of the project. We did have a 1 day delay due to some plumbing / electrical issues but that's pretty typical as far as kitchen cabinet installations go AFAIK. In the end, they were able to get all the kitchen cabinets installed, albeit with a lot of effort from my end due to the more custom nature of the project. The price was affordable and the work was solid (minus the scratches) but for me the bad attitude wasn't worth it.

    Exceptional craftsmanship, professionalism, and care…read more I had two TVs mounted today -- my new 77" Samsung and my existing 65" Sony Bravia -- and I couldn't be happier with the service. The installations were not exactly straightforward. The main TV was going over an original brick fireplace, and I chose a pull-down mount, which requires much more precision and skill than a standard TV mount. I'm the daughter of a long line of carpenters, so I tend to notice how someone approaches their work. From the moment Jay arrived, I could tell he was extremely knowledgeable and skilled. He took the time to prepare properly, worked confidently and carefully, and I could immediately relax knowing that everything was going to be mounted securely and correctly. Watching someone who truly knows what they're doing is such a pleasure. He was also incredibly clean and respectful of my home. His wife worked alongside him throughout the installation, and the two of them were exceptionally efficient without ever making the work feel rushed. He was also wonderfully resourceful. I had planned to purchase a separate bracket for my soundbar, but he found an elegant way to attach it using the existing TV mount, saving me about $90 while actually giving me a cleaner-looking installation. I really appreciated that he wasn't just there to install things -- he was thinking about the best solution for my setup. The entire experience was professional, thoughtful, efficient, and beautifully done. Both TVs look fantastic, everything feels extremely secure, and the work area was left spotless. Highly recommend. It's rare to find someone who combines technical skill, craftsmanship, efficiency, and genuine care for the finished result. I would absolutely use him again.

    Jay was very precise and quick to work through my tv mounting and curtain rods at my home. He was…read morepunctual. I'm very happy with the service. I would totally recommend them.

    I reached out to Mauricio to help with getting a smart door lock installed with my double entry…read moredoor with a custom mortise door lock handle that would've cost me as much to replace with the same type of handle and lock as getting the smart lock added with his help. Mauricio helped me to add a new deadbolt opening into the exact right spot, had all the right tools for the job, and made sure to take the exact measurements needed to make sure my new smart door lock fit and worked perfectly. I needed someone exactly like Mauricio who takes his craft like art and does the job right the first time. One mistake and I'd be looking at doing a new double entry door replacement that would've cost at least a couple thousand more. I'm definitely glad I reached out to Mauricio for this type of job and would recommend him for any custom wood project.

My plumber had to come out and a company was hired to remediate the mold and dry out the wood, but in the process, they had to open up the ceiling, and the water pipes were exposed. My plumber gave me Rob's contact information, and I got in touch with him. He responded in a timely fashion, came out and looked at the job, gave me a reasonable quote and I hired him. Rob is highly competent, professional, honest, nice, and communicated with me all the way through what they job would entail, how long it would take, when he could be at my house, his start times, if he was running late, etc. Compare this experience to the other company I had inquired working with where they did not show up twice to take a look at the job, no phone call to give me a heads up and their estimate was $500- more, there was simply no comparison. Rob is the only handyman I plan to use in the future! Thanks Rob!!
