- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
1. Initial consultation: We talk on the phone to determine exactly what you are looking for and I give you a ballpark quote. 2. Design/Estimate: If you approve of the quote, we will schedule an on-site estimate (if need be). I will create a set of drawings and a detailed estimate of the final project. I charge $300 for a on-site estimate, a detailed quote and a drawing set. 3. Work Order: We finalize a total project cost, agree on a payment schedule and begin work. 4. Delivery: We bring your item straight to you and install it.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've always loved working with my hands. I grew up apprenticing under my father who is a master carpenter and general contractor in the San Francisco Bay Area. After graduating from UC Berkeley, I began to apply my design and engineering skills to creating custom furniture and performing high end residential remodels throughout the Bay Area.
