"I hired Jacob to do a fireplace and some detailed finishing work for my new build in Burnaby and his work is excellent. Very detailed individual and very knowledgeable with finishing carpentry. I highly recommend his work if you are looking for detail work."
Fernando
Project Manager · Burnaby
"Ruth and Jacob are nice. Price is reasonable. Quality is good. Most importantly they keep the place clean."
Calvin Chan
Homeowner · Coquitlam
"Jacobo and Ruth did all the detailed finishing work on my house renovation and they did an incredible job! Jacobo made the most beautiful fluted closet doors for the entire house, custom stair spindles, a completely custom built-in loft bed for a very small room and two incredible lacquered wood pieces – a live edge floating desk and an old dresser that he turned into a perfect bathroom vanity. Working with Jacobo and Ruth was a delight; they are the sweetest and most caring people and they take so much pride in their work. I missed having them around when the project ended and I will have them do any carpentry project I need in the future."
