Ruiz Carpentry did an outstanding job on a large custom built-in for our new home. We showed Michael a picture we found online, and he was able to replicate it with incredible precision and attention to detail. The craftsmanship truly exceeded our expectations. He used high-quality materials throughout the project and even completed the work ahead of schedule, which was a huge bonus. Michael is the definition of a true professional, reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of the workspace. He made sure everything was clean and organized when the job was finished. We couldn’t be happier with the final result and highly recommend Ruiz Carpentry to anyone looking for top-notch custom work.
Highly recommend!! Excellent work very efficient.
Ruiz Fine Carpentry has done several projects at my house, including two bathrooms and a first floor renovation. I have been very happy with the work and would recommend them to my family and friends.
I have been working with Mike and Ruiz Fine Carpentry for over 10 years. He has worked on tiny mill work projects for me, as well as much larger whole house remodels (mine included!). I also utilize his woodworking skills in boutique hotels that I develop and he always does a great job. Mike is communicative, flexible, and highly skilled.
Mike Ruiz Carpentry is fantastic!! On time. Professional and transparent. The quality of service is amazing. The price was fair and reasonable. I cannot recommend them enough. I've already hired them for two more additional projects!
