Conor's Custom Carpentry

Eleven project galleries, and not one review. That is the shape of Conor's Custom Carpentry on Houzz — a Norwood shop whose work you can look at, but whose customers haven't written anything down. The listed trade is narrow and specific: stair building, custom millwork, fine finish carpentry, cabinetry installation. The galleries say more about where the work happens than how it went — an architecture office in Cambridge, houses in West Roxbury, Watertown, Sudbury and Stoughton, an apartment in the Boston Seaport. The company gives its address as 61 Endicott Street in Norwood and says it covers the Greater Boston area. The typical job cost it posts runs $5,000 to $1 million. That is less a price than a span wide enough to cover a single staircase and a whole-house fit-out, so it is worth pinning down early what your own job actually sits at. Houzz shows one award and two badges on the profile. With nothing on file from anyone who has hired them, there's no fair way to put a number on this one. Look through the eleven galleries, ask for references tied to the Cambridge or Seaport projects specifically, and get scope and price in writing before you commit.
