Portland Woodsmith holds a 5-star Google rating from 7 ratings. A 2023 customer named Jamey as the owner and described him as the painter on a three-year custom build that included two outbuildings, where he also produced 3-D images, templated, built, installed and finished several custom built-ins. That 2023 customer said Portland Woodsmith turned a napkin-sketched idea into a mortise and tenon coffee table with iron beams, and that Jamey met them at the lumber mill to help choose the hardwood. In a 2024 review, a customer said Jamey built kitchen cabinets for a house that had none: he measured the space, drew up the idea while there, sent pictures along the way, installed everything and came back a few times to make adjustments at their request. A 2024 customer said Jayme turned unusable space in a cape-style bedroom into a closet, designing a custom layout and building it with solid plywood, and said the space was left cleaner each day than when he started. A 2024 customer described a "closet basement bar" and said Jamey left their home clean and tidy at the end of each day; that 2024 customer added that he had painted for them as well. A 2024 customer said Jamey made a sideboard for their dining room. In a 2025 review, a customer said Jamey built a bathroom vanity, kept them updated on progress and let them stop by his workshop.
We hired Jamey for a bathroom vanity, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, he was incredibly communicative—always keeping us updated on progress and even letting us stop by his workshop. Not only did he bring our vision to life, but he also offered thoughtful suggestions that improved both the design and functionality of our space. If you’re looking for someone who combines skill, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to quality, I highly recommend Jamey!
Jamey created the most magnificent sideboard for our dining room. He is a master of his skill and my husband and I feel so fortunate to have a piece of his furniture in our home. We simply cannot wait until he creates his next masterpiece for our family !!
We bought a house that had no kitchen cabinets, a completely blank slate. It has a weird layout with a lot of entrances and a random window. At some point down the road, we want to expand the space, but needed quality cabinets to get us by in the meantime. We reached out to Jamey, who we found through Facebook, and gave him the vision and the price point we needed to stay within. Jamey immediately responded and did an amazing job working through our idea. He came out, measured the space, drew up the idea while he was there, and then started working on the wood pieces. He sent pictures along the way and when it was completed, came out and installed everything. He has come back a few times to make adjustments at our request. Jamey was easy to work with and incredibly kind. We will definitely be using him for future projects!
Jayme did an amazing job transforming our unusable space into a fully functioning closet! We had zero closet space in our bedroom (being a cape style) and Jayme went above & beyond. He came several times to measure, designed a custom layout, built everything with solid plywood. He is clean, responsive, professional and all around good person to work with/talk to. He keeps everything very neat, this closet was being built in our bedroom while we had a newborn and everyday the space was left cleaner than when he started. Will definitely use his craftsmanship again & already have a list of ideas for more projects! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We are delighted with the end product of our "closet basement bar"! The entire process was thoroughly professional and stress free. Jamey is very meticulous and always left our home clean and tidy at the end of each day. He had wonderful suggestions and cared about the project as if it were his own. Jamey has painted for us, as well and did a really nice job. We recommend him without hesitation!
