Tom is the most wonderful man to work with. We would use him again in a second! We had a laundry room closet which had had doors and other parts ripped out by a previous occupant. Other prospective carpenters, who looked at the job prior to Tom, could not figure out any way to put the closet back together, since what was left was so badly damaged. Tom came in and looked it over, thinking out loud and energetically coming up with plans full of great ideas for how to make the space work. He won our confidence and we let him proceed as he thought best. He constructed oak doors to match the style of the existing ones amazingly. He added a new floor and a toe kick, while making additional changes that made the space look so great in a few hours that one could never tell how wrecked it had been before. It was an amazing transformation, and Tom was friendly and helpful the entire time. Tom and his assistant also installed a crown moulding in a guest room, as well as a trim over the double sinks in one bathroom. Both jobs were done to perfection. Tom also repaired a broken oak cabinet door in our garage. Again, his work was so perfect that one would never know there had even been any damage to the door. Finally, I asked Tom to do a couple of things we hadn't talked about. I asked him to wall-mount a TV set, and then to saw and attach three trims to go over a large built-in desk, rip out the old trim that was over the same desk, and then attach the new trims. Without our asking, he finished off the trim on all sides with a beautiful mitered edge. The previous trim was simply sawed and pasted. Tom spared no efforts to make everything beautiful. His extra charge for the extra work was more than fair — it was generous. And it helped us tremendously, as the entire renovation of our house had taken a huge bite out of our wallets, and we were still able to afford Tom's magnificent work. We are very grateful to Tom, and we will take every opportunity to recommend him enthusiastically to any people we know who need work done around their home. Since this house was a severely damaged foreclosure, it required dozens of workmen of different kinds to repair the house. We had some good ones and some not-so-good ones. The best by FAR was Tom!
