Established in 2001, Paul Ferreri Carpentry continues to be a family owned and operated business serving Connecticut and some parts of Massachusetts. I take pride in the craftsmanship and quality of the work I do, and strive to deliver a high level of service. When I create your custom cabinetry and woodwork, I will work with you to design a project that enhances your living space and complements your home's style.

"Paul has done 3 jobs for me in 2023 : loft in NYC, Loft in Ct and cabinetry in Ct. I was pleased with his work. He works with you to creatively solve design problems. I thought highly enough of Paul to tear down work that had been done by another company and have him design and build a better solution...both functionally and aesthetically. My advice is that you hire an owner/craftsman like Paul, instead of working with a salesman for a carpentry company."

My name is Darren Maynes, founder and owner of Alternate Route Construction. We are located in Smyrna, Delaware. We specialize in finish carpentry and woodworking; such as Crown moulding, Wainscoting, Coffered ceilings, Accent walls, Ship lap, Panel moulding, Custom woodworking, and Historic renovations; However, we cover all phases of construction; including handyman services, tile, drywall, painting, plumbing, kitchens, bathrooms, and more.

"Darren and his team installed new, super-sturdy and beautiful handrails on a set of stairs at my father's home. Darren was friendly and helpful throughout the process, and eager to brainstorm to give us what we needed. It was a relatively small job, but Darren worked carefully and conscientiously, and he explained everything thoroughly to my father. We love the new rails and would hire him again in a second."

My Company does home improvement. This is my 35th year in business, I am a true professional. I never cut corners, always thinking about the customer’s needs. I'm the person who does all the estimates. You’re never dealing with different people. I do most of all the work myself, which I prefer. I do have sub-contractors from time to time, all with many years of experience, all insured. When a contract is signed I have three payments (State of Connecticut recommends) 1st payment when contract is signed, 2nd payment half way thru job, 3rd payment when job is completed. This gives you piece of mind. My company also offers all types of WOOD SIDING repairs and installation along with specialty services for UNIQUE COPPER GUTTER SYSTEMS.

"Kurt did an excellent job in repairing several rotted windows vs going through the tremendous expense of replacing them. Kurt is professional, friendly, always on time and communicates effectively. His pricing is very fair. I plan on hiring him for another project. Highly recommend. You won’t be sorry. Great guy!"

"DO NOT hire Jose to do any work in your home! Had him work on a couple things in my new house. He did not start on the agreed upon date. Showed up late eveyday. And didnt show up at all some days. He installed tub/shower valve BACKWARDS and he left it leaking. Had to hire plummer to fix. His work is horrible. Please save your self time and money and stay away from JJ restoration. He did not finish painting either and was sloppy with the work he did get done. He was always leaving and coming back. Oh and HE DOES NOT HAVE INSURANCE!! Beware please!!"

Built in furniture constructs FAQs

For a built-in bookshelf, always choose high-quality furniture-grade wood. Softer woods, like pine, and particle boards like MDF can sag under the weight of heavy books. Ideally, your shelves should hold 20 to 40 pounds per foot, so opt for scratch-resistant hardwood plywood or solid wood. Popular options include mahogany, cherry, koa, maple, oak, walnut, birch, and cedar.

Your built-in bookshelves should seamlessly blend into your space. Often, this means floor-to-ceiling units ending at a natural cutoff point like a door. You might also consider creating a custom corner unit or suspended units hung at eye level. If you're installing a prefabricated unit, you'll find sizes ranging from 24 to 48 inches wide, 10 to 12 inches deep, and 5 to 6 feet tall.

The installation time for built-in bookshelves depends on the complexity of the design, the size of the shelves, and the level of customization. A contractor can install a simple, prefabricated unit in a few hours, while an elaborate, custom unit could take up to a week. Installing add-ons like lighting could also extend the installation process.
