We had Colton and crew do some renos at our house. He is a Red Seal certified carpenter. They replaced 4 windows and 2 doors with added storm doors, repaired fascia trim, replaced the carport steel jack posts, and painted the whole house. Excellent workmanship. Was on time and on budget. Very happy customer!
Colton did an amazing job! He put together multiple IKEA pieces quickly and flawlessly, and his painting work was clean, precise, and professional. He was punctual, friendly, and clearly takes pride in his work. Everything looks fantastic, and the whole process was stress-free. I'll absolutely recommend Colton to anyone needing furniture assembly or painting—top-notch work!
