Last 6 months: 1 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Two decks sat on rotten home framing, and a recent customer said Matt and his crew at The Ridge Carpentry LLC took the extra time to make sure everything was properly attached to solid house framing before the replacements went on. A 2026 customer said Matt and his team completed the unfinished second level of their cape and found solutions to preexisting construction issues along the way. That 2026 customer also described the work as reasonably priced. In a 2025 review, a customer said Matt and his crew sanded and stained the deck and screened porch they had built a year earlier, and rebuilt a lower deck section previously left open for pool access. A 2025 customer said Matt and his team completed a half-wall and cabinet install between the living and dining rooms, talking through several unanticipated challenges as the job went. A 2025 reviewer wrote that Matthew and Team installed a built-in. A 2024 customer said Matt and his crew did the work on a shed roof garage addition to their home. A 2024 customer said Matt had completed a few projects for them, including closet work. A 2023 customer said Matt built a deck with pergolas and a ramp, channelled roof water away from the house with underground pipes and finished underneath with stone; that 2023 customer said he also trimmed and tiled around their wood stove. A 2023 reviewer called Matt and his crew honest and the price fair. In a 2022 review, a customer said Matt was on budget and on time on a cedar siding and portico salvage and rebuild. A 2022 customer said The Ridge Carpentry built their new covered porch and completed the project on time. **Strengths:** - Deck replacement — a recent customer said decks were tied to solid framing - Garage addition — a 2024 customer described a shed roof addition - On-time porch build — a 2022 customer said the porch finished on time - A fair price — a 2023 customer called the price fair ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A recent customer said Matt and his crew replaced two decks and made sure everything was attached to solid house framing despite rotten framing _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT25OMlVubHhjSFJMVlRSVVF6VTBiMlZtVHpaeFJuYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x5fc8a3de52e6090!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOnN2UnlxcHRLVTRUQzU0b2VmTzZxRnc%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Matt and his crew at The Ridge Carpentry just finished replacing two decks at our home, and my wife and I couldn't be happier with the re…” - A 2026 customer said the team completed the unfinished second level of their cape _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2xaWVpXZzBkM0F4TnpaM1ZqSlNSalJmT0dkelVGRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x5fc8a3de52e6090!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOlZYZWg0d3AxNzZ3VjJSRjRfOGdzUFE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Matt and his team were the best!They recently completed the unfinished second level of our cape which was long overdo.
