We have had nothing but top notch work from Shawn and Ryan at Compass Carpentry! These guys know…read moreexactly what they are doing and how to do everything right (and if they don't know themselves they know who does). They work quickly, efficiently, and cleanly. They communicate very effectively and meet your needs. Their prices are not the lowest but neither are they the highest. They do wonderful work at perfectly reasonable prices and won't try to sucker their clients. Here is a sample of what we have had them do and it just keeps growing... Shawn resolved an electrical problem in three minutes that other electricians were estimating would take days. Shawn put in railings for our stairs and made a gorgeous mantle for our fireplace. Shawn also put up security lights for us. Shawn and Ryan replaced two broken down old windows with great new ones that are energy efficient. Shawn built a fantastic custom closet and laundry room cabinets for us that make the laundry room much more pleasant to be in and very functional and adjustable. We even had them build us a custom captains bed frame for my 6'8" tall hubby with storage drawers. Currently Shawn is repairing my Mom's back door and our gate that broke in the wind yesterday and tomorrow he'll be coming back to discuss a patio and garage project as well as fix some smoke alarms. I wish Shawn had been our home inspector because he immediately saw the issues we discovered only after we moved in. So now we are using his skills and knowledge to make our family homes better. They are great around kids too (an important thing for parents of small ones to note). I highly recommend them to anyone and everyone.

We've had Ryan help us with numerous projects and thoroughly appreciate his professionalism and…read morecan-do attitude. He and his team are easy to work with, they keep us apprised of options and suggest better ways to achieve results and they find creative solutions. We have an older quirky home that is always needing something. Ryan and team have rebuilt and reroofed our large (and old) chicken coop, built a fence, a deck railing, opened up a wall so we'd have room for a larger fridge, rebuilt a wall with numerous windows, installed several doors and most recently helped us build a garden/green house using mostly repurposed materials. It was so easy to work with Ryan. We'd express our ideas and he'd figure out a way to make our dream a reality. We appreciate how we can count on Ryan to help us keep our home and place in top shape.

Disappointment My experience with Ryan Brandt was positive…read moreat the beginning, but didn't end that way. He had good ideas for how to accomplish what I was looking for. The invoice was presented the day before completion. I paid it that day, never thinking he would leave anything undone. 2 gates still needed latches. One didn't fit its space, and had become warped from being unhung. He did finally send someone, but he only got 1 of them done. I had to hire someone else to finish it up. Be careful with this guy. Only pay when your job is completed, every detail done.
