S.S. Carpentry is a one-crew framing and finish-carpentry outfit in Everett, run by carpenter Tiago Souza Silva, with seven years in business and 122 project photos posted on Thumbtack. The reviews that exist paint a consistent picture: careful, precise work. In a 2021 review, a homeowner described having studs installed behind a wood wall "without damaging a single wood panel" β the kind of detail that matters when you're worried about a crew tearing up a finished room. A 2020 review credited the crew with catching and fixing pre-existing structural issues that weren't part of the original job, and a 2021 client said a difficult finish-carpentry project came in on the original estimate despite long workdays. In a 2025 review, a commercial customer described repeatedly hiring the business to repair and assemble reclining lift chairs for senior and disabled clients. That written record runs 2020 through 2025 β five reviews over five years, not a flood of recent activity, but a consistent one. Thumbtack's own tally backs it up: a 4.7 average across 12 ratings, 92% of them five stars, plus a Top Pro badge for 2025 and a completed background check. The one soft spot in the numbers is a single one-star rating buried in that 12 β nothing in the written record explains what went wrong there. This reads like a solid call for framing and finish-carpentry work β stud walls, structural patch-ups, trim β from a crew that seems to show up, work carefully, and hold to its number. If your project is more of a furniture repair or assembly job, there's at least one recurring commercial client vouching for that too. Worth asking directly about current availability and getting your own written estimate, since the reviews on file don't say much about turnaround times or scheduling.

Highly recommend! Our company uses SS to help repair and assemble reclining lift chairs for our senior and disabled customers. It's always a wonderful and fantastic job. Our customers are always happy. We look forward to working with you again!!
He was great. Punctual, knew what needed to be done took care of everything cleaned up. Great Job will keep him on my list!
Tiago not only did the original job but also a difficult finish carpentry project I needed done. He worked long days but stayed w/ his original estimate! I will call him again in future!
Job very well done, cleaner than what I expected. I needed to install studs behind a wood wall, and he managed not to damage a single wood panel. It looks as if no work was ever done. Perfect!
Was great working with Tiago. He went above and beyond to do the job right. He fixed some pre-existing structural issues as well as a bonus.
