Jorge has worked on a couple of projects for us so far, including installing a range hood in our kitchen, updating some gas lines, and installing bollards. He’s really helpful, friendly, easy to communicate and schedule with and does great quality work. I’ll definitely be calling him again!

Jorge supervised our complete kitchen remodel over the summer of 2025. I wanted to hire him for this job because he was so detail oriented, timely and reliable when he installed new windows for us. I was not disappointed in the least! Jorge is meticulous about getting every last detail right. And he made every single day count--there was always at least one person working to get us an unbelievably beautiful kitchen! The work pace never flagged for ten whole weeks. I would not hire anyone except for Jorge to work on my craftsman house. He is a rare craftsman himself.
