Testimonials

Over the years we've had the privilege of working with quite a few amazing clients. Here's what they have to say about the experience:

  • Bryan did a FANTASTIC job on a custom built in dresser/cabinet install in our 1913 craftsman home. Our bedroom is a half story with sloped ceiling and was seriously lacking some efficient storage. Portland custom carpentry totally brought my vision to life, to include extra long custom depth dresser drawers to maximize storage. He was extremely communicative throughout the process, as well as creative with solutions required due to our house not being perfectly ‘square’ at all angles, given the age. The results are amazing, all that’s left to do is paint! Looking forward to discussing future home projects with Portland custom carpentry!

  • Contacted Portland Custom Carpentry with a very rough design in mind for a built-in shelf. Bryan was extremely communicative, thoughtful and friendly throughout the process; including, helping finalize the design with helpful suggestions and address unique "old home" installation challenges. I would recommend his work to anyone interested in upgrading their home with built in cabinetry/shelving.

  • I needed a custom cabinet built for our downstairs bathroom and had no idea where to begin. I was able to find Portland Custom Carpentry through a search. I didn't realize how lucky I was until the finished product arrived and was installed. Bryan and his team have been fantastic from setting out clear expectations and making sure we were on the same page, keeping me updated throughout the project, and then delivering in a most amazing way. I love our new cabinet and am very grateful that I found Portland Custom Carpentry!

  • Bryan is incredible: he’s one of the most friendly, sincere and talented people you’ll ever meet. He’s truly an artist! His work is beautiful but also highly functional. He’s a perfectionist in exactly the way you want for custom carpentry projects to be perfectly aligned. He built us a beautiful juniper shed and gate, a lovey screen door, and custom myrtle wood kitchen shelves that we get endless compliments on from house guests. Bryan appreciates the wood he uses and you can see how he honors that through his work. He’s exceptionally skilled yet humble and a joy to work with! We hope we can hire him back for future projects!

  • I looked around and luckily found Portland Custom Carpentry to do some custom kitchen cabinets. I need to match some existing cabinets, modify some and move some upper kitchen cabinets to make room for new appliances. Bryan was great to work with, he was responsive, did super quality work and was very reasonable for the kind of work I wanted done. I'm a woodworker myself and really appreciated someone who enjoys the craft and was interactive in the design, installation and constructions. So much so I'm going to see if he'll come out to my place in Montana and do the kitchen cabinets there next year!

  • Bryan installed custom wood paneling and shelving in an unusual space for me: he listened to my design wishes, offered his design advice when asked, and overall made sure that the end result was something that I would be happy with. The quality of his work was excellent, and the finished project ended up being both exactly what I wanted but also a lot more elegant than I would have imagined. Bryan was very professional and easy to work with, and I would definitely recommend his services. Also, he’s a really nice person.

​

  • It was obvious, from the start, that Portland Custom Carpentry place as much attention on their clients as they do their projects. Bryan was very knowledgable and helpful from the beginning to the end of my custom wood project. He has a wealth of knowledge, has an eye for detail, and the skills to back it up. He was in constant communication with me to make sure that the custom counter tops were exactly what I wanted and provided great recommendations when needed. Super happy with the final product!

  • Bryan designed and built a breakfast nook for our kitchen. He was professional, on time, and maintained a clean and safe work space throughout. He was even inclusive of our two young kids who were fascinated by the work he was doing. The finished product is beautiful, functional, and a perfect fit with the existing design and character of our home.

  • A true artisan!
    This level of build quality and trustworthiness is rare indeed. Bryan's thoughtful and beautiful design, material quality, and implementation of detail oriented, no-corners cut, super solid building skills is second only to his quality of character. I loved working with him and can say that it's been at least 20 years since I've found such a quality oriented and trustworthy contractor. He has all-around skills to do all kinds of projects and drive to learn how to improve and thrive in new and old techniques alike.
    My only complaint is that I don't have enough space for him to make the infinite number of beautiful and functional projects I'd like him to make for me.

  • Bryan has been the best contractor I've dealt with since moving west. Being from Michigan, Bryan took me back to the kind and transparent mid-western roots I came from. Bryan's outside the box thinking on the two projects he tackled flawlessly for me and my family have me making a list for the next projects I can ask him to help with. I would recommend Bryan to anyone that's looking for a talented multi-skilled contractor who plans ahead and goes above and beyond on everything I've seen him do.​
