As a 3rd generation Master Carpenter, My expertise encompasses all areas of the construction industry. This exposure to the building trades began at the early age of 10 with the first job being the Livingston Mall where my father led a drywall crew this hooked me with a deep love for the trade and I never looked back. After finishing high school i went to work for a local re-modeler rather than the Union my family had grown up with. My skills sets grew greatly with such trade experiences as add on's and framing whole houses. From there my Union Education began ending up as the top of my class. As a journeyman carpenter I've worked on all kinds of projects from building Waste and Water Treatment Plants, bridges, damns, high rises, retirement villages, hospitals, banquet hall woodwork and more. My specialty and favorite things to do, the small retail stores my customers shop in. Biggest project was a $12,000,000, six story building in N.Y.C. but what got me there was the small jobs done perfectly. I did the finish work in California Pizza Kitchen, Willow brook Mall Wayne, N.J. without a punch list. I helped build the first 2 Hollisters stores in N.J. before they had settled on the final name. After years of working for others at the highest levels in my field the only thing left to do is build a successful business for my family. My pledge to all my prospective clients is simple. The highest level of craftsmanship at the absolute fairest prices. There will not be an unhappy customer PERIOD.
