    Where to start? Terry was here so much he was like part of the family! Our adventure started in July of 2014, with the dining room remodel. Terry put in a hardwood floor that carefully matched up to the existing hardwood floor in the living room, and ran seamlessly into the kitchen. In the kitchen, in addition to replacing the existing old floor with a new hardwood floor, Terry took out all the old cabinets and countertop and sink and lights and installed our new cabinets (including a modification near the window to give us more cabinet space), ceiling lights, and a vent hood above the stove, which he also vented out of the rooftop. (The quartz countertop was installed by the countertop company and the plumber worked with Terry to install the sink, garbage disposal, and dishwasher). Terry modified the electric wiring, bringing it up to code, and giving us more outlet and switch options (including a motion sensor light switch) He also did the tile backsplash. One really neat feature of having Terry re-do a kitchen is the temporary sink set up he brings in, so you don't have to be without a sink the entire time. Terry has connections with a veritable army of artisans and if there was something he needed one of them to do, he brought them in, such as the company who sanded and poly-ed the floors, and the drywaller and painters, in addition to the aforementioned countertop company and plumber. When it was time for the master bathroom remodel, we were delighted to see Terry again! He gutted the entire bathroom, removing old cabinet work and the tub (as well as the sink, vanity, and toilet). Again, we had him put in ceiling lights, including above the shower. One awesome feature of our new bathroom is the heated floor! Terry worked with an electrician to ensure all the circuitry was up to code and the heating elements were properly installed underneath the tile. He tiled the floor and the shower, putting in custom cubbies, and installed the shower base and shower doors. He made modifications to the wall so that our custom recessed cabinet would fit. He vented the exhaust fan out of the rooftop, and, as above, he made sure all the electrical wiring was up to code while giving us more options for outlets and switches. He moved the floor register over, too. The finishing touch on the bathroom was the sliding barn-style door between the master bedroom and the bathroom. Terry figured out a way to hang the sliding door track securely yet discreetly. There are many great aspects to working with Terry, but one of them is that he believes the client should be the one with the final say. The client designs and Terry implements. If the client wants something that isn't possible Terry gives alternatives, but it's still up to the client to decide. He genuinely, truly wants his clients to be happy. When the work was done we were sad that we wouldn't be seeing Terry regularly, because we enjoyed working with him so much. He's conscientious, hard-working, inventive, polite, and communicates well. I can't think of a better professional to do a remodel. Services Rendered: Full kitchen remodel, full dining room floor remodel, full master bathroom remodel

    He is great. He is reasonably priced and very thorough. He works for everything and he didn’t give me a number. It was thorough and he did it right. I think everybody should be like him. His prices came right in the middle, its good price. Services Rendered: I used Carpentry And Home Repair to install garage door openers and he redid stringers on some steps. He also tarred a roof and fixed some soffits.

    The work was completed on time and on budget. Services Rendered: I had the garage wall, side entry door and garage door replaced. This included framing in the new items, buying custom pieces due to low clearance, and complete installation.

    Terry was very prompt, professional and helped me make new door decisions. He installed an electronic dog door perfectly even without clear instructions from the company. He completed the job in a timely and cost effective manner. Services Rendered: Terry replaced a back garage door, installed new trim and installed an electronic dog door.

    I planned what I wanted, called Terry for input and discussed my options. Upon his advice, we made several changes to the project. He refigured the pricing and changes were made to the contract. Work progressed as planned. He was very neat and took great care to see that nothing was disturbed, putting things into place at the end of each day. The job was finished as promised and on time. We are very pleased. Services Rendered: New wood ceiling in Sunroom New entry door New closet doors Added fireplace
