Oakleaf Carpentry rebuilt our deck. The work was done ahead of schedule, on budget and with no surprises. Rudi and team offered design options and ideas. When we encountered some unexpected problems, Rudi offered a series of suggestions and was able to immediately resolve the issues. We recommend Oakleaf Carpentry without reservation.

I have used Oakleaf Carpentry on multiple occasions for remodeling projects. I found the quality of their work to be outstanding and their level of service excellent. Rudi listened carefully and made sure he understood my needs. He offered a number of insightful suggestions that helped me refine my project. Once we finalized the design, he told me how the work would be completed, and he did exactly what he said he would do. I was especially impressed with the attention to detail and workmanship. A fantastic experience all around and I recommend Oakleaf to anyone without hesitation.

Oakleaf Carpentry helped rebuild our deck at our home a few years ago. Rudi was very thorough and courteous and I have recommended him to my neighbors. I was very particular about the quality of the cedar decking used and Rudi was very kind to take back many of the deck boards with holes/blemishes and brought back new decking that I found more suitable. Rudi felt that my happiness was more important to him than the inconvenience. Rudi is an excellent communicator and he made sure to communicate both in writing and verbally. He was very careful to avoid any chances of miscommunication from start to finish. I would recommend Oakleaf again to my friends and neighbors. I plan to use Oakleaf Carpentry for any future home improvement projects.

When I needed my deck replaced (for the third time), I really wanted to find someone who could replace it for the last time. Oakleaf Carpentry came very highly recommended and I am so happy I contacted them! After just a couple of conversations, we agreed that replacing the deck with composite material was the way to go and I have been enjoying the deck ever since! Rudi was always just an email away, and responded quickly. The estimates he gave for the timing and cost were spot on, and what impressed me the most was that after the job was completed, Rudi was out working on the stairs because he said he didn’t like the way they looked and wanted them to be perfect. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Rudi/Oakleaf for any other work that I need.

We hired Oakleaf Carpentry to design/build some cabinets with drawers next to our fireplace. There were existing electrical outlets that were in the way of the drawer design. Rudi was able to work through that problem and move the electrical outlets to accommodate the design. He didn’t charge us anything extra, even though he lost a half a day solving the problem. Rudi’s communication was excellent. He kept me informed at all times. I was working from home while the built-in cabinet work was being done and he was very conscientious of the noise and dust that is created while doing this kind of job. I would highly recommend Oakleaf Carpentry to friends and family. Our overall experience was very pleasant. Rudi was very courteous and worked hard to make sure that my wife and I were completely satisfied.

I have had the pleasure of working with Rudi on two projects to my home. The first was the rebuild and expansion of a deck in 2005, which is still as solid as the day it was built. In 2015, I contacted Oakleaf about renovating my townhouse, including the gut and remodel of two bathrooms. As usual, Rudi was prompt to respond and once we got going he stayed on schedule and on budget. Rudi’s attention to detail was apparent from the start of the job. He kept me in the loop about what was happening and his scope of work was to the T. He also thought of items and additions I had never considered, which made him an incredible asset to this project. His organization and coordination of all the activities could have had some hitches, but I never knew. He kept me informed of all developments and was thorough in everything that took place. If there was an issue, he quickly had it remedied. He also kept an immaculate job site. The results of the transformation are so much more than I expected, mainly because of the quality and the craftsmanship that Oakleaf Carpentry puts into their work. Now, I’m looking forward to the next project.

It is now one year after the deck that Oakleaf Carpentry built was completed. I have thoroughly enjoyed my deck and the underdecking providing a dry area and a carport. Oakleaf handled the permitting, design process, and building the entire project in a timely manner. Rudi’s suggestions were all excellent and added to the success of the project. He incorporated my wish list for the deck and enhanced them. I couldn’t be happier with his work and will definitely call on Oakleaf again for future projects.
