We took pictures and followed up verbally as well as email to be sure we were both thinking the same thing. We talked about what I wanted and he shared what he could do. He provided options along the way. He had a slab which he thought fit the style I wanted and was very thoughtful in the process. He provided an accurate estimate of time and shipped the top to me. Very well packaged. I would highly recommend him for custom work. I was drawn to him because I liked his art work and I thought I'd love a usable piece of art in my home on wheels. Looking forward to doing future business with Landon and Redwood Burl.

Having grown up in Humboldt, I really wanted some redwood in our San Diego dream home. It was sentimental because my dad passed before seeing our dream home but a part of him is here in our dining room. Landon made it come to life and we couldn't be happier with a beautiful table & statement piece for our home!

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.

Peter brought my grandmother's chair back to life!…read more I inherited a wooden chair that had been stored in a shed for decades. The finish was checked and gummy. It looked and felt horrible. But it also carried cherished memories for me. Peter listened to my feelings about the chair and suggested he sand the checking out of the finish but leave some of the worn places that bore my grandmother's imprint. By the time he was done restoring the chair, it looks and feels like what it now is: a graceful hundred year old spindle chair by Phoenix that has seen love (but not neglect). It came out better than I ever imagined. Thank you Peter. Every time I see or sit in that chair, I am reminded of the loving woman who used it.

I crawled underneath my house (as did mark) and found evidence of rust and leaks that Mark never even mentioned. This is stuff that was going on for years and was easily detected by an inexperienced new homeowner. Mark doesn't use a moisture meter which indicates how much moisture is in the wood and if he had he could have told us what we needed to know about the condition of the house we we're buying. I do not recommend this company to anyone looking to buy a home. We also learned the door to our garage isn't fire-rated, another thing he missed. Here's some pictures of the mess we are now dealing with that we purchased thanks to Mark. Never hire a home inspector in HumCo who doesn't use moisture readers- it's like walking into a huge financial obligation completely blind.
