About

Twenty years of woodworking and carpentry in Western North Carolina. I work with homeowners and small businesses on everything from custom built-ins and kitchen cabinetry to deck construction and structural repairs. Every project starts with a thorough consultation and 3D rendering so you know exactly what you're getting before any sawdust flies. I source locally when possible and stand behind my work 100%.

Carlos built us a massive deck and it is STUNNING. The attention to detail is incredible — the cable railings, the pergola, all of it. Worth every penny.

The built-in bookshelves he made for our library are gorgeous. Using locally sourced wood was important to us and he found the perfect match.

Repaired and refinished our old hardwood floors — they look better than ever. We thought they were past saving. Carlos proved us wrong.

The 3D rendering process before starting was so reassuring. We knew exactly what we'd get. The finished mudroom is even better in person.

Our kitchen cabinets are beyond what we imagined. Carlos listened to what we wanted and delivered something even better. He's a true craftsman.
