Get matched with top carpenters in Upper Fairmount, MD

"I had a leak in my utility room from the storm. They sealed the door way and took out the weak wood and installed a new strong flooring. They also repaired my sliding glass doors which would not open and close correctly. Another carpenter told me that I needed new sliding glass doors. King's Son Services, LLC took off the doors and installed new wheels and the door opens and closes like new. My flooring looks awesome and strong. Their expert service is much appreciated and I would recommend them to everyone. I have already recommended them to two friends."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"Loved the quality and craftsmanship!"

"I cannot say enough about how happy we are with the service and quality that George's Painting provided.  We threw them a couple of curve-balls (unintentionally), which they handled very nicely and with great professionalism.  We purchased composite mouldings, which they had not worked with before and were not comfortable with.  George, Jr. did some quick research and got the information that he needed to be able to install our mouldings.  Their carpenter is very good and the "wood"work looks beautiful. 
The second curve-ball was that we hated the paint color that we'd picked out for the main floor, once we saw it up on the walls.  GP worked with us and fit in additional workers for the second day of painting to repaint what had been painted the prior day, for a very reasonable additional charge.
The work that was done is just immaculate and they were very diligent cleaning up each day.  Both George, Sr. and George, Jr. did a thorough job of assessing the environment and challenges and resolving issues so that the workforce was properly directed, before they left the site.  They were also very accessible during the course of the project and checked in afterward to ensure that there wasn't any touch-up that needed to be done.
All in all, the entire team is friendly, professional, and very talented at what they do.  We have additional painting to be done and we wouldn't even consider using anyone but George's Painting!

"OMG, Cortez was GREEAAT. Although the original appointment was rescheduled due to mechanical issues with one of their service trucks, they called me ahead to cancel and we didn't mind since it was Memorial Day weekend and we had a lot of activities going on. Well, Cortez, called me the morning of the rescheduled appointment, gave me an estimated time of his arrival and called again when he was 15 minutes away from my neighborhood. When he arrived and placed his booties over his shoes, I told him, there was no need as we have a dog who runs in and out of the house, but he still put them on and took them off as he went in and out. He listened to me for where I wanted the lights installed ( in my dead spots) and then he provided a better asymmetrical look for my kitchen that actually works and looks better. He was done in a little less than the 3-hour time frame and we are so excited about the new lights. He did tell me I purchased the wrong bulbs (got daylight instead of soft white, but that was an easy fix and my fiance' was able to change them out for me). Everyone who has visited us since having these lights installed is amazed at how bright it is and needless to say, I can finally see when I cook without relying on under cabinet lighting. Hats off to this company, because another contractor priced this same job at $900 for stuff that I even know was "crazy." There was no need for making a new outlet, patching up any drywall, and painting. Cortez was on it and even cleaned up the mess. Now how professional is that. I will use this company again without the Angie's List deal price."

"Mel does a good job. I have been using him for at about four years straight. In the past I've had him power wash my deck and cleaned the siding on the house."

"The job went great from start to finish!! Workers were very punctual and professional. The kept the construction areas very clean.There was very little material waste. They performed and finished a large amount of work each day! Very, friendly, honest and hard working! Their pricing is more then reasonable."

"Hello, My name is Phil Carr-Jones, I am reviewing my experience of working with and building my own kitchen, using cabinets and doors from Arkansas Wood Door. While I am an Episcopal Priest, it turns out I get to do a lot of things they don't teach you in seminary. Over the years, I have had to get fairly skilled in all the trades, including, no surprise, carpentry. But I am by no means an expert. For instance, I employed a retired carpenter to help out with the crown molding and other trim. Apart from that though, this is all my and my wife's work. So let me state up front, Arkansas Wood Doors is the go to place for the DIY’er who is thinking of remodeling their own kitchen. Here's why: I searched the web for months, literally doing comparisons and research on flat pack rta cabinets. I went to the big box store for a design and pricing in their three lines of cabinets, and I went in for a consult with a small custom shop in my area. Here's what I found. 99 outof 100 rta cabinet companies have their product made in china which means the standards for formaldehyde are going to be as fishy as they smell, plus you can only get cabinets in fixed sizes so if you looking to eeck out every last inch of space you're going to lose a lot and you'll be using a lot of filler strips wasting what could have been useful storage. If you want to go custom, then you only have less than a handful of online options, companies that will make to order in any dimension. For instance, I only wanted an 8 inches deep spice cabinet to allow for greater working room over the counter. My wife and I are pretty serious about cooking from pastries to mains and sides. We want a very serious kitchen. Plus, I'll tall so I needed the room. In any case, if you want something custom your choices online are limited. The big box stores don't really do custom and are just as limited in their options as are the online rta places. Most online rtas offer far cheaply made boxes with construction methods less sturdy. I have found that if I buy cheap, I shouldnt expect my kitchen to hold up past a few years. The finish will fade. The drawers will warp. The joints will open up. The big box stores basically offer the same thing, too. When I go to a big box store to buy something, I do it knowing I probably willl get a year out of it, whether that’s a lawn chair of a power tool. I mean when was the last time you regretting spending too much money on a better grade of power tool? So if you want quality, a better and safer grade building material and much wider choices in sizing then your basically down to three or four options. I went with Arkansas Wood Door and am completely pleased and impressed by the experience. Now I could have spent twice what I did and gone to a small custom shop and gotten the same thing, but I am in to saving money and frankly I enjoy the challenge. AWD worked with me directly. Working up the order and getting the plan for each box just right. If you have never designed and built a kitchen before, there are plenty of tips and guidance on the web and I recommend you heartily research all of the aspects and complications involved. I hit a couple of unexpected bumps. But more about that below. So do your research. For instance you can save a lot of money by building the plinths yourself and only order squared off boxes without the toe kick. By making the platform on which you place the lower cabinets first, you can get that plumb and level, so throwing up the boxes is a breeze. And again, the cabinets are also less expense, a complete all around win. AWD uses an easy system for matching up box parts so assembly was easy. No special tools required. Given the many parts and I used a mix of frameless and face framed cabinets, there was a moment or two when in amongst all the materials I got nervous about having everything I needed, but low and behold, all was right there in the end. I also recommend the concept from French cooking "mis en place" that is have all your ingredients in place and all your tools where you need them before starting out. Also, it was a lot easier to work with my wife than doing it alone, but I did a few by myself and so if that is your only option than you should have no problem. I've assembled a lot of cheaper Swedish flat packed furniture in my day, and the quality and sturdiness of AWD leaves no doubt about how long these will last. Just rock solid. Great thing about AWD is the cost to quality ratio. Cant beat it. Which also means if you make a mistake the replacement is so reasonable it becomes not big deal. I mis-measured one box and so I needed to order the right size. Worked out fine, but that was because AWD had an incredibly fast turn around. The other few reliable companies are several weeks to months. And these other places are crazy expensive. And in truth, the other companies are a complete rip off on trim and accessories. AWD pricing was so amenable that my mistakes cost me so little in comparison with what I was saving. So there's a built in confidence for the first timer. Also AWD made one mistake on the placement of a hinge in two doors. They immediately and without question remade them and sent them out in under ten days. You just can't get that service anywhere in the custom cabinet world. It was so affordable I upgraded on one side to black walnut. Trying doing that at the other quality shops. The quality of the roll out drawers and top drawer boxes is superb and the hinges and under-mount sliders are top grade excellent. The hardware was the easiest part frankly. Their system, for lining up the hardware is just so easy. Drill driver is all you need as the placement is already leveled for you. SO: high end quality custom built cabinets, superior custom support, fastest turnaround in the marketplace, most affordable pricing out there, excellent hardware, and oh yeah, I almost forget, color choices. They offer complete line of lacquer - just pick a SW color and they'll match it. SO completely and truly custom for a fraction of cost without sacrificing any quality. The Rev. Philip Carr-Jones"

"They arrived on time.  They got right to work fixing the things I asked them to do.  The work on the deck required one of the men to leave for a while to get some quick-set concrete, but other than that they had everything they needed on hand.  They did a good job and left everything clean.  I feel that I got a good value and I would use them again.

"They did a really good job and the workmanship was very good. We are very happy with the end result."
