"Andrew was very professional with his work. He was great to work with, I added other work because his work turned out great . He was honest with pricing / bidding. Also picked up materials for me. Great communication. Call Drew Pro Carpentry for all your Carpentry needs ."

"I have a metal framed awing over my patio with a canvas cover. It is like the kind that you would see at a bar or restaurant. Thomas and his crew have been helping me for years now, installing the cover in the spring and taking it down in the fall. They have been great to work with. Very timely and professional."

"I told him the chores that I was wanting to be rectified. These were lights, fan in two bathrooms. Decisions for ceiling lights, under the counter lights updated, using existing cut spaces to fit the updated lighting. Checked all electrical outlets for appropriate wiring. Same with existing ceiling fans, wiring appropriately. Sanded, primed and painted the ceiling joists that were not taped but caulked incorrectly by a previous handyman. Discussed fixing many cracks in the ceiling throughout the open concept for 3 rooms. He sent me an itemized quote for all items . Also redid 5 ceiling lights with new lighting electric boxes. Will be discussing a choice of floor for a home on a slab. His work is thoughtful, compliant for coded work. He is nice, respectful, and descriptive to his work status and work status. I will be hiring him again when I need things to be done. Excellent worker ethic. Suzi Sxxxxx Homeowner"

"It was a great find: CJ Construction & Jeff Morris! He knew what needed to be done, got the materials to do the job, and went to work in early heat & atrocious humidity. His estimate was good. He completed our BARN repair yesterday. We are pleased with his work and highly recommend him for carpentry & construction."

"Drywall Repair and Framing a Wall: We hired Jim to fix a hole in our ceiling which was caused by a water leak and to rework a closet in one of our bedrooms. He gave us an estimate on a Monday, completed the work on Tuesday and Wednesday. His work was impeccable. You cannot tell where our ceiling was repaired. The closet work was exceptional with great care to ensure it matched existing. He was very, very clean and his attention to detail was second to none. Would hire him again without hesitation."

"Art gave me a quote for only what I needed. He did not try to sell me on a new deck but said he would be able to repair and replace only what was needed. His price was very reasonable. Art came to the jobsite by himself. He would not let me help at all. He was professional, finished the job when he said he would and cleaned everything up and took garbage away. Very nice guy and would hire him again if ever I need him."

"COS did great at scheduling and confirming the April 17 meeting for an initial design.   All personnel were on time throughout.  My instructions to the designer, Tom Mayfield, were to give me cabinets for $1,000 for the items I then had in a wire bookcase and plastic boxes and bins on the floor of the laundry room, and if space were left over to build in room for large bags like sports bags.  I told Tom that I could not read an architectural sketch, so that I was relying on his design.  He told me that his design, which was to use the whole wall, would offer a lot more space than I currently had in my wire bookcase, and that there would be room left over for a hanging closet.  We spent way too much time with him trying to explain to me his drawing, because I can't visualize widths, angles and directions of doors from architectural drawings.  I decided to trust him since I had explained my priorities and what I wanted and since COS had such great reviews.  I then faced a few surprises when it came time to sign.  The price was well over the budget I had provided, included 3 doors of the design we had discussed and a fourth flat panel, and included no backing (shelves were flush against the wall, which in fact worked out but I find it inappropriate to be told at the end to initial that backing would cost more when we had always discussed "cabinets").   When built on May 7, the system was very nice, solid and well made by installer John Lyons who was very pleasant and also did a great job of keeping the area clean), but Tom's design was poor.  Over one quarter of the space was wasted with a hanging closet accessible only through an 8" wide opening the user would have to reach through standing at an awkward, diagonal angle.  One quarter of the remaining space was wasted through narrow shoe shelves, wide enough for only 3 shoes at a time, to create the 8" access (my husband's muscular arm is as wide as the amount of access given to get into a 22" wide, floor-length hanging closet!).  The bottom portion of the other half also wasted space.  After an unhappy meeting with Tom and various emails and calls expressing my disappointment and explaining the problems, COS was very helpful about removing the useless design features and substituting conventional shelves in the unacceptable half.  The replacement install on June 8 finally gave me the space I had expected and is very satisfactory.  My lessons learned were (1) I had read about and hoped for a good organizer being able to design shelving to hold things in a logical way and maximize use of the space.  Either that hope was a waste of time, money and effort, or I did not get a good design.  The replacement shelves installed June 8 (the full width of the space, straight all the way across, like a bookcase) were far more efficient and generated far more useable space than Tom's fancy attempt at different widths and sizes.  (2) my m.o. has been that if a provider gets as good reviews as COS had that I may not get multiple estimates and seek designs from multiple companies.  Given that I am paying $2,000 when I told Tom I hoped to spend $1,000 (and truly expected beforehand to pay $1400), this did not serve me well, and I definitely would recommend getting another estimate besides COS. (3)  if I can't understand the plans, don't do it--simpler is better.  Be cautious trusting the "designer."  (4) if I get hit with surprises in price when it is time to sign, next time, I hope I will walk away.  At the time I felt like I had invested too much time (I work) to go through the same process with someone else, but the last minute surprises in price were obnoxious and probably a warning sign that the design hadn't been well thought out.    With the replacements, the system is very nice and well-made, give me the space I had wanted, and should add value to the house, but I would definitely get multiple estimates and go with a straightforward design next time.

"Excellent job! We hired the company for few projects- custom walk-in closets, cabinets and laundry. The precision and attention to detail was exceptional. It was very nice to work with and they listened to every request we made. We were very pleased with the overall experience and will hire them again. Strongly recommend."

"The work looks good and I had a great experience. The project manager Walter was very informative and the carpenter lance did amazing work."

"Dan and Joe did some basic finish carpentry work in our kitchen including installing a range hood. They did a great job overall and were done in a day and half. They were professional and communicated well, asked me specifically what I wanted done, did great work and cleaned up after themselves each day. I would recommend them and hire them again."
