  • Bob is an excellent and efficient craftsman who has completed a number of projects in my home. Bob is a measure twice, cut once carpenter who always carries a brush and a dustpan in his toolbox. I highly recommend Bob and I would be happy to provide a reference for his work.

  • I have known Bob for almost twenty years. He has installed our kitchen, replaced all of the windows and doors in our house, replaced the stairs on our porch, installed new trim and banisters on our stairs, and remodeled our upstairs bathroom and powder room. These are just some of the things he has done for my wife and I over the years! He has always done a great job.

  • Enormous thanks to R.E. Arnold's Custom Construction for the completion of yet another home project of mine, a total kitchen remodel including a scratch-built island for additional storage and counter space. Always reliable and enthusiastic. If you can think it, he can build it. Thanks again, Bob!
