Poulad Ketabforoush
Sole Owner
He is very honest and trustworthy and quite reasonably priced. He made a very custom mini bridge for my front walkway and an extra long buffet table with glass doors, lighting, and granite top. I wanted a very rustic look and extra long length that I could not find anywhere. I described what I wanted to him, he drew it, and then built it. Even the doors were custom built by him and it turned out even better than expected. It was exactly what I wanted and couldn't find. I have recommended him to a few friends for various remodel jobs, and they have all been quite pleased with his work.
