A custom living-room bookcase is one of the projects a customer described hiring Michael Trippi to build. In a February 2025 Thumbtack review, that customer said he took time to understand the project, asked questions and offered ideas along the way. They praised his craftsmanship and attention to detail. The customers planned to paint the bookcase themselves; Michael recommended and left a paint additive to help minimize brush marks. Thumbtack lists him as a Worcester-area interior finishing contractor offering flooring installation and finish carpentry, along with interior painting, drywall installation and shelving or closet organizers. His Thumbtack rating is 5.0 stars from eight ratings. In a December 2024 review, another customer said Michael responded quickly to their ad and started working within a few days. He installed a dog door, helped with its outside trim and removed a screen door. That customer described a clean work area and said he also helped with boxes that needed to go. A March 2022 customer reported that Mike refinished kitchen cabinets and installed flooring. They praised the efficiency and precision of the work and were happy with the timeframe.
We hired Michael to help us construct a custom bookcase in our living room. Michael took the time to understand our project and asked good questions and offered ideas along the way. His craftsmanship and attention to detail were great. Since we were painting the finished bookcase ourselves, he recommended and left us some special paint additive to minimize brush marks. We are really happy with the end results. We would definitely recommend Michael for your next carpentry project.
Michael responded quickly to my ad and was here working within a few days. He installed doggy door and then helped with outside trim of same door and removal of screen door. Very clean, never left a mess and even helped with other boxes that needed to go. I’m so impressed I keep finding more things for Micheal to do.
Mike refinished my kitchen cabinets, installed flooring, installed mounding, Thanks you so much for your time and effort. It was done so efficiently and precisely. I am extremely happy with the performance and timeframe given. I can’t thank you enough it is beautiful
