I reached out to So Cal Woodworks on February 12th to schedule an appointment, and my experience…read morewas extremely frustrating. My appointment was rescheduled four separate times, often last minute. As a mom of 10-month-old twins, my schedule is very structured, so the repeated changes were especially disruptive. I understand things come up, but the lack of reliability was disappointing. I ultimately had to move forward with another company. **Update: After the owner's response, I went back and reviewed our messages and he's correct that there were two reschedules, not four. I appreciate the clarification and understand that one of the cancellations was due to a family emergency. Hope all is well with your mother. That said... scheduling delays, limited availability and multiple reschedules still impacted my timeline and planning, which ultimately led me to move forward with another company. I understand that unexpected situations come up, but reliability and consistency are important factors when choosing a service. Sharing this for transparency so others can make an informed decision.

After getting a few quotes, we decided to go with SoCal Woodworks, and I'm so glad we did. James and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with: professional, punctual, courteous, and always respectful of our home. James patiently addressed all of our questions and offered thoughtful, expert guidance, especially when we found ourselves wavering over details (who knew choosing the perfect shade of blue could take 20 minutes?). The craftsmanship and attention to detail were truly exceptional. The final result is stunning, and I'm already looking forward to working with them on future projects.

HIRE WITH EXTREME CAUTION !!!!!!!…read more DO NOT PAY HIM ANY ADVANCED PAYMENTS OUTSIDE OF WHAT IS STANDARD BY LAW !!!!!!! POOR COMMUNICATION !!!!! Marcus is meticulous and his finished product is awesome, IF / WHEN he finishes it. We initially hired Marcus back in May 2021 to do a custom accent wall and hidden doors. There were a few set backs and the "finished" product looks great. While working on this job we had him complete a custom mantle and stair tread trim. We are very happy with those two projects and mostly happy with the custom doors/accent wall. "Scheduling issues" delayed the hallway project but Marcus threw in painting the bathroom trim because we had been pretty flexible with things. Our house like most others is a challenge with wavy walls, floors, and ceilings and he did a fantastic job making everything look great. We initially agreed upon a 50% down payment on the accent wall/door project with the remainder due when it was completed. When we added the mantle and stairs, he agreed to take payment on those when he finished them. We paid promptly once those 2 projects were completed. There were a few set backs during these 3 projects but nothing that seemed out of the ordinary. As we neared the end of the hallway/door project in early August 2021, he asked if we could pay him the remainder of the balance for the hallway/door project because he was struggling to get more work during COVID. We liked the quality of his work and asked Marcus if he could build us a desk and bookcase. We worked out a design and Marcus promised a one month timeline for completing the project and he offered us a discount if we paid for the project in full. We felt he would complete it due to our experience with him for the first 3 projects. THIS IS WHERE WE F'D UP!!!! The desk was supposed to be completed by September 17th, 2021. He was in communication and led us to believe he was going to be delayed a week because he was sick. Then excuse after excuse, no show, ghosting, you name it. I drove over to his shop to see our finished pieces that he said he had and discovered him working on another project. He had nothing started on our project. So on Monday November 22, he drops off the desk. There was pitting and scuff marks on the desk top, yet no bookcase. On Thursday December 18, 2021, he started to install the bookcase. We are still trying to get him to come finish the project. Update 01-29-22: After posting my review Marcus finally got in gear to get this "finished". The bookcase and desk are installed. There are fresh scratches on the front frame of the bookcase and the cabinet lights quit after 4 hours. Had enough and pulled the plug on him. I am going to hire a painter and electrician to finish the project. Sad ending. Dude needs help.

At first he is acting very professional and texting you on time and answering all your questions to get a 50% deposit from you and after that he will disappear.

Now it's like 6 months I been texting him calling him and last I stopped at his work shop but it didn't work out to get my money back . Please do not trust this GUY .

Bill is a true craftsman! I've had a wood gate that has needed rebuilding for the last 8 years…read more Pieces of the wood gate were rotting. Over the years, I've had other handymen pass on the project. I had a handyman who was able to fill the rotted areas with wood filler, sand it, and restain it. I've even had a gate company tell me that they could not save the gate; it would need to be completely replaced. Bill was able to cut out the rotted pieces of wood, replace them, and restain the whole gate (he also repainted the decorative hardware on the door as well). Moreover, he discussed the project with a buddy of his and they determined that the gate was sitting over a muddy part of landscaping which is probably what facilitated the deterioration of the wood. We found some leftover pavers in our storage shed and Bill extended the pavers so the gate would sit over pavers instead of mud. Before he embarked on the wood gate repair, Bill also installed a valance/shade over a window. He made the necessary calculations to ensure that the valance/shade would be centered on the wall and window. He also made sure that the valence was leveled. Bill is honest, meticulous and detail-oriented. If you want someone to treat your project and your home, like it's his own, I would give Bill a call.
