Harris Carpentry
My specialty is furniture refinishing but I also enjoy making custom furniture. Over the years I have been told repeatedly that I missed my calling when it came to the art of wood. I just enjoy any type of carpentry and making others dreams come true.
Dealing with the public all my life first as a salesman during college and have realized over the years that most people are not patient. Quality work is not possible without patience and making sure every detail is covered for pieces to last a lifetime. My pieces are meant to be passed down from generation to generation. This process can not be rushed.
No one is perfect and I don't expect to be, but I strive for perfection in my furniture making process. With a Masters in Special Education and a Masters in Business, I have learned that patience over powers ignorance.
We are incredibly pleased with our project. Derrick did an amazing job making our mailbox. He was fun and easy to work with. He paid a lot of attention to details and he really cared about what we wanted. Communication with Derrick was easy; he shared his progress along the way. He took care of shipping and the beautiful mailbox arrived safely wrapped. We will definitely return to Derrick for future projects!!!!!!
The final product turned out even better than expected. Derrick is awesome to work with and goes out of his way to make sure I was involved in the design decisions. Will definitely use him for future projects.
I absolutely love the repurposed piano key wall art that Derrick made for me! He was excellent to work with as well and communicated with me at every step of the process. I highly recommend Derrick as a maker and could not be happier with my experience and finished product!
Would have given zero stars if it was an option. I hired Harris Carpentry to build a new conference table for my office in January of 2023. I was given a timeline of 3 months for completion. I finally received my table on June 6th after getting very gruff with him. The table had been packaged improperly and was completely destroyed in shipping, so I had to refuse delivery. I had already paid in full, and the insurance company reimbursed him for the damage to the table. Fast forward to November and I still have no table, have heard every excuse you can possibly fathom, and had to get pretty nasty to get my money back. I did finally receive a full refund at the end of November. Now, a year later, I will be finding somebody else to build me a new table.
Derrick has been wonderful to work with. He has consulted with me every step of the way and has sent frequent updates and pictures. He even sent samples of stained red oak so I could select just the right stain. I recommend him hghly for any custom made items!!! I certainlly will use him again!!!
