They are skilled professionals with an artistic touch! We absolutely love our mudroom transformation!!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We feel lucky to have discovered Finish Carpenter. We moved into a new home from out of state and asked Davyd to bid several projects. He and his team proved to be incredibly professional, talented, and meticulous. Every thing they did in our home exceeded our expectations. We're so happy with the improvements they made that we've already started planning a few new projects for them. I would absolutely recommend Davyd and his team to anyone looking to have carpentry, construction, wood working, or painting done in their home.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Davyd and his team were easy to work with and they did an exceptional job with the beams project in my office. They worked quickly and kept everything very clean. The craftsmanship is excellent and I look forward to working with them again in the future. Thank you!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I recently bought a home with an early 2000s builder grade cutout in the living room and an asymmetrical fireplace that we’ve been wanting to change since we moved in. After talking to a woodworker and other contractors who couldn’t do what we envisioned within our budget, I decided to reach out to Finish Carpenter. Within days of contacting David, we had our EXACT vision for a bookcase and remodeled mantel custom built ready for us to enjoy. We were blown away by the craftsmanship and efficiency. We’re already thinking of other projects for David’s team to help us with in the future.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Eli added a beautiful beam plus tongue and groove pine to our large great room ceiling. His work is high quality. He takes pride in doing it right and making his customers happy. Eli communicated well in the initial planning and also kept me aware of progress. He and his crew were respectful of our home, taking care to cover floors and clean up at the end of each day. The overall experience working with him was excellent. I highly recommend him.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Eli Interiors does amazing work. Every interior door, every inch of baseboard and every inch of casing in the house was replaced. Also, several new exterior windows and doors were trimmed out and a vaulted ceiling was installed in white pine. Every cut is precise and perfect and Eli's attention to detail is unmatched. He also did demolition of our kitchen and his careful attention to detail really paid off there, too. He precisely and carefully demo'd the kitchen. And Eli is just a pleasure to work with. Good humored and smart and, above all, complete honesty and integrity. A rare combination of traits in this business. 100% recommended.

They created two custom built-in bookcases and then I asked them to make three custom jersey cases. They coordinated with other contractors for drywall repair, electrical, and painting. I highly recommend them for your project.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These custom cabinets provided space for my collection of cookbooks and vintage fabric. A perfect combination of form and function which blends with the details of the home. Excellent craftsmanship.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Eli was great. He replaced baseboards, trim, installed new closet doors (the old ones were broken), vent covers, a cabinet. He has really good attention to detail, thinks through the projects to ensure everything functions and aesthetically looks good. He is a thorough cleaner... each day, it was like he was never there. This was incredibly helpful as I have three kids and he was working around them (bless his soul) for several days. Very patient and kind.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Davyd and his team at Finish Carpenter did a great job installing crown molding and a custom wood hood in the kitchen. The job they did looks fantastic and I highly recommend them.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Alder Box Beams Installation with custom hand-hewn woodwork
This project showcases the installation of Alder Box Beams Installation in a farmhouse setting, crafted in a hand-hewn style to bring rustic charm and architectural interest to the interior. Completed over five days, the work combined skilled woodworking with precision installation, resulting in a warm, inviting living space.
The client requested custom alder beams to enhance the farmhouse aesthetic. Knotty alder was selected for its rich grain and natural color variations, giving each beam a unique character. The hand-hewn style emphasized texture and craftsmanship, creating the appearance of traditional, manually worked timber while maintaining modern structural reliability.
Installation began with precise measurement and placement of each beam. Hollow box-style construction reduced weight and simplified mounting without compromising durability. Brackets and supports were carefully aligned, and each beam was secured to ensure stability and uniformity. The result is a seamless integration with the existing ceiling and overall interior design.
Beyond structural function, these beams dramatically transformed the space. The exposed wood introduced warmth, texture, and contrast against lighter walls, creating a cozy yet refined atmosphere. Incorporating decorative beams like these adds both aesthetic appeal and a sense of history, elevating any living area with depth and personality.
Box-style and hand-hewn beams are versatile solutions for homeowners seeking classic timber looks without the challenges of solid beams. They provide authentic style while offering flexibility in design, finish, and installation.
For professional installation of custom beams, trim carpentry, millwork, and other woodworking projects, Finish Carpenter LLC delivers trusted service and expert craftsmanship.
