    custom doors

    I am an architect who was searching for a carpenter who is attentive to detail, and has fine craftsmanship. Martin is not only a skilled carpenter but a real joy to work with... very communicative, fair pricing, on time, willing to listen and collaborate with your design/work. He installed a total of 11 solid doors and there are four different types (pocket door, sliding door, hinge door with concealed magnetic catch) at my home. This proves that he has a wide range of skill sets plus his persistence of perfection is what I appreciated the most. He has earned my trust for my next project and I would strongly recommend him.

    Perfection!

    Martin replaced our builder home entrance with double solid wood 8 doors. It was a very complex job that involved widening the original opening. We are extremely pleased with the exceptional result. Martin is a highly skilled carpenter who is tremendously professional, committed to excellence, and very respectful and pleasant to work with. Martin plans each step with great care and precision to ensure perfect results. We highly recommend Martin and we look forward to engaging Martin for future work at our home.

    New Door Installation

    I was lucky to find Russell Custom Cabinetry and hire them to install all new doors for my clients second floor. Martin was highly skilled at fitting doors accurately which is a special talent. He took his time to measure each doorway precisely, ensuring that we order the correct size doors for each space. Very often in older and newer homes, the doorways are not perfectly square. Martin worked his magic, patiently structuring the frame, trim and fitting the door perfectly. My client was delighted. Martin was a pleasure to work with and reliable. Martin is the first person I would call whenever I need doors fitted for future projects and you should too!

    Door instal

    Martin is friendly, experienced, diligent and reliable. He installed an interior garage door and persevered through a tricky commercial lock installation and the end result was clean, neat and looks great. I would highly recommend for any carpentry project.

    Doors Galore

    Martin is a door guru! He's helped us install two doors in our house so far and it won't be our last time having him around! His attention to detail is matched by his passion for what he does. Martin is a pleasure to have around, and has given us a new appreciation for excellence in doors.

    Front Porch, Basement Stairs, Trim and Door Hanging

    Martin was such a pleasure to work with. We were impressed with him from our first meeting. We appreciated the detailed quote he provided us and his work was so well done. He did a lot of work on our home - a new front porch, new basement stairs, various trim work around the home and installing new doors and their trim and a few custom pieces like a custom grate. He is truly a craftsman with strong attention to detail, a great work ethic and great personality. He works hard and it shows. We would absolutely recommend Martin and would not hesitate to hire him in the future.

    Roof Deck in Leslieville

    Martin was amazing to work with on our roof deck project. With the weather warming up I wasnt sure that I would be able to secure someone, and it was on the third floor of the house. Martin was a pleasure to communicate with- he worked me into his busy schedule and got the project done quickly, on budget - and it turned out even better than I could have expected! We looking forward to working with Martin again on future projects. If you are considering working with him, take this as your sign to do it!

    Installation of 11 interior doors and hardware

    Martin just completed a several day project hanging 11 interior doors and installing all hardware and doorstops. We are extremely pleased and impressed with the results. The upper floor door frames in our 1929 house are no longer square, yet Martin seamlessly hung each door to perfection. He is talented, meticulous, and detailed oriented. We noted that he actually enjoyed the challenge of hanging new doors in existing door frames. He protected our floors, cleaned up each day before leaving and was most respectful of our home. Martin's workmanship is absolutely outstanding. It was a pleasure working with him on this project. We highly recommend Martin and will definitely hire him again.

    Interior Door and Trim Installation

    I just recently had my interior doors hung and trimmed by Martin. He did an excellent job. My wife and I couldn't be happier with the work. Amazing attention to detail and very professional. Martin has fair pricing and stuck to the timelines he set out. He showed up on exactly the day he said he would to start, and finished on time too. He was also very responsive prior to the installation. He made recommendations and answered all my questions. Hire Martin. You'll be glad you did.
