Work Description: Installation of new door hardware.

Comments: John works very hard-doesn't take any breaks or waste any time. He is very careful about details, neat and cleans up after himself. He underestimated the amount of time required for the job-by alot-but not having seen the doors ahead of time I understand. Overall did an excellent job.

Work Description: Removed existing Kitchen cablnets and replaced with new and provided for the granit counter tops and bar top to be installed by others. The difficulty of this job was such that three other contractors priced their proposal defensively; they had never seen an open kitchen with eight walls (Calafornia style).

Comments: The reason I selected John from a choice of three with strong cabinet design and build expierence was that he would personally do the work. My spouse and I have a very high personal regard for John as both a person and craftsman. Doug and Judy Hess, Cary IL

Work Description: John built a very large, cherry cabinet that required considerable detail. The finished cabinet is nothing less than perfect. John amazed me when he was able to install a dedicated electrical outlet that was needed before the cabinet could be finished,

Comments: On the few occasions that I have needed to hire someone for help around my home I have always been a little apprehensive ( having had a few, not so pleasant experiences and a very reputable general contractor father) and it was no different when first meeting John, but that quickly changed. I understand carpentry and after meeting John it became clear that he knew exactly what I wanted. He has an attention to detail that separates him from the others.His estimate was more than fair and the quality of his work is exemplary. He takes great pride in his work. An extra bonus with John is his great personality. John is not only an extremely detailed carpenter (which is what I was contracting for), but he is very competent at doing electrical work. John was building me a very large custom cabinet and while in the middle of the project I realized that a dedicated electrical outlet needed to be installed before the work could be finished. I hadn't realized that John could do electrical work and was very pleased and surprised that he was able to do this also and I would not need to contract out another job. I wholeheartedly recommend him.

Work Description: Replaced hinges on all kitchen cabinets

Comments: John Stalle's work was extraordinary: 1. He was flexible becasue we had to delay the start of the work; 2. He was clear about every detail of his bid; 3. He arrived for the work, removong shoes so as not to track; 4. The final result was extraordinary. Not only did he replace the hinges but he hung the doors to assure perfect fit and symmetry. Could'nt be happer with his work -- and at a very reasonable cost.

We would definitely use him again for any carpentry needs and will recommend him to family and friends.
