Our reputation speaks for itself
Andy & his crew did an outstanding job on our master bedroom LVP flooring. They removed the old carpet, layed out the new floor to minimize waste and repainted the base and installed new base shoe.
We had Andy & his fantastic crew do several upgrades to our home (Aug 2025): install new front door, install new patio door, sand and paint bannister black/white, remodel half-bath. The work is OUTSTANDING! It is of the highest quality and completed in a timely manner. Andy & crew always arrived ahead of scheduled times and had wonderful communications with us. Andy & crew are highly skilled and are meticulous craftsman. When Andy encounters problems he is able to troubleshoot them quickly and correctly. Very easy to work with. We HIGHLY recommend Burns carpentry for all your home remodel needs!
Andy and his crew at Burns Carpentry built our 20x20 Timbertech deck.As a woodworker myself, I appreciate attention to detail. Andy and his team came on time every morning and left the job site clean and orderly every day. All cuts were accurate and straight. We just love our new deck. Well built and sturdy. It should last many years and be easy to upkeep. Highly recommend Burns carpentry for any home remodeling project. I will be using them again.
What an amazing crew. They are extremely professional, fairly priced, and unbelievably meticulous. You can tell they really care about getting every detail just right. They go above and beyond in everything they do and stand by their quality work. Very kind, communicative, and accommodating as well. The best contractors I have worked with—I would recommend them for any job. 11/10.
Andy and his team are beyond amazing! We could not have imagined a better, more responsive team than them to help us finish our basement. Not only did they do a wonderful job, they were so fun to work with and witness their eye for detail. We could not recommend them enough for all of your home project needs!
Wish I could leave 25 stars!!! One of the nicest contractors I’ve dealt with for sure and the quality of his work is MAGNIFICENT!!
Andrew and team built a deck fo me in the summer of 2024. His price was fair, he kept in touch throughout the process, (excellent communication) and did an absolutely SPLENDID job. Attention to detail and craftsmanship is unsurpassed. Many people have commented on his work and the deck is really gorgeous. .
Also had him do some wall repair and painting for me in the cold months— again, SUPER work. He’s definitely my go-to guy for all carpentry and painting work. Can’t say enough good things about Andrew Burns!
