Main Carpentry shows 4.7 stars from 28 ratings on HomeAdvisor, and the same 4.7 from 28 ratings on Angi. A recent customer says it started ok, but the railing and gates they wanted on both deck entrances were not put on. That customer says he said they were not part of the contract after he left, though he had told the customer's wife, or led her to believe, that he was going to do them. A 2015 customer said he provided a written estimate, weeded and pruned flowers and shrubs, cleaned up, and also performed some house maintenance and carpentry. A 2016 customer said the estimate was accurate and the work fixing storm damage on the house was very detailed. A 2014 customer said they already had the company coming back for other projects beyond a siding repair. A 2017 customer said Shanen was prompt, came when he said, gave a fair price, and was left the access code to the home. A 2017 customer said he quickly fixed their tenant's toilet for a reasonable cost. A 2010 customer said Shanen stayed to complete their project in the bitter wind and snow. A 2017 customer who needed an over-the-range microwave installed said he did not feel the project was within his area of expertise when he arrived to do the job, even though he had come previously to see what needed to be done.
It started ok but didn t put a railing on or gates that we wanted on bothe deck entrances as he said it wasn t part of the contract after he left but told my wife or led her to believe he was going to do them.
Quick response, friendly, Terrific to work with
While this pro is very personable, and probably capable for other projects, he did not feel that my project was within his area of expertise when he arrived to do the job, even though he had come previously to see what needed to be done. I needed an over-the-range microwave oven installed...wiring /ventt were already in place..
Shanen is very professional and dependable. He was prompt, came when he said, and gave a fair price. I left him access code to my home without any reservations. He did a nice job and I would hire him again.
He was quick to respond, quick to come out, and he quickly fixed our tenant's toilet for a reasonable cost. Very pleased!
