Introduction
All around skilled handy person/carpenter. I have built high-end custom cabinetry and museum pieces, ultra-streamlined solutions to meet a budget, and everything in between.
I have an architecture degree and 25+ years of experience building, making, troubleshooting and repairing - still love it.
Excellent listener and client partner to ensure you love the end product; speedy and meticulous about getting it done. I leave my work area at least as tidy as I found it and take care of any and all any mess created by the project.
For custom work, if you have a clear idea (or a fuzzy idea) of what you want to have built, I can help you understand the options, pick materials and a design, and get it done on time and on budget.
PLEASE READ: I have a 2-hour minimum for service calls/coming out in person.
No charge or time limit for working with clients remotely to review jobs, estimate time requirements, and identify materials and equipment - I want to be sure that I can execute your project once I come on site.
For exterior work, nothing 2nd story or higher.
I look forward to working with you!

I had an attic entry on my second floor big enough for a gnome. Wanting to get the attic insulated, I had to have it widened, so Eric swooped in to help. He explained what he was going to do and then widened it as I wanted, giving me a thing of beauty. It still needs finishing with texture and paint, but I can do that. He cleaned up his workspace, barely living a fingerprint. I will definitely be hiring him again. In fact, I almost wish I had a lot more carpentry projects to keep him busy. He's that good. (And don't you guys go booking him up so that I can't get him again!)

Eric was fantastic to work with. He is very clear, patient and proactive in his communication and is able to offer creative solutions to unusual problems. The built-in bathroom cabinet he built and installed for us looks great and Eric's rates were very reasonable. Would definitely use for future projects, highly recommended!

Eric was awesome! Very professional! Very responsive and helpful.
I had been trying to get some roof soffit and facia repaired by the “pros” from the big orange Home store for a couple of years with no follow through and high prices. I finally checked out Thumbtack and immediately found Eric.
Eric was quick to reply and had the job completed in half a day one week after we made our initial contact, and all for a very fair and affordable price.
Eric’s expertise is worth every penny.
I could not be more pleased with Eric’s work and professionalism. I am already putting a list together of more work that I want to have Eric do.
