What my clients are saying
-
"Jeff has done work in our 1889 house since 2006, beginning with trim work in our existing house and eventually performing all the trim work in the 3-story addition and major cabinetry work in the kitchen. Additionally, he crafted and installed a floor to ceiling bookshelf and four-person "cubby" unit in our mudroom that we use every day. He has worked in every room of the original part of our house, be it restoring original windows to working order, installing missing cornices or repairing damaged trim. Jeff listens to what owners want, and is easy going. He is extremely talented, very precise, and his work is outstanding. I would highly recommend him to anyone."

"I have known and worked with Jeff for over 20 years now! When I was a builder, he trimmed out our houses and did custom woodwork where needed. Since then, he has done several built-in shelves for our houses and some nice pieces of furniture. He is always a pleasure to work with, is a great listener, a kind and soft-spoken person, and a good friend as well. I am looking forward to seeing what Jeff does next with his talents."

"Having known Jeff for more than 15 years and I can honestly say that he’s the genuine article. As a friend, Jeff is honest, compassionate, quick to humor and simply put he is just the kind of human you want to spend time around. As an artist and woodworker — he’s a master at his craft. As the daughter of a carpenter and wife of a furniture maker, I recognize quality work when I see it and would be thrilled to have some of Jeff’s beautiful work in my own home. Jeff is deliberate and thoughtful in all the ways that matter — most visible in his approach to life and art. I consider myself lucky to know and love Jeff — he’s one of the good ones."
