We recently purchased our forever home and the stairs to the basement were horribly steep and even dangerous. We walked away from this house once because of that, but when the house came back on the market, we knew this was the home for us! We purchased it "eyes wide open" knowing we had to do something with the stairs. We spoke to a lot of knowledgeable people who all said the same thing. This would be a challenging job because the stairs would have to be demolished and rebuilt, but we still only had the space that was there to get the correct rise and tread sizes, which would impact the head space at the bottom. In other words, a tall person would have to duck...and this would never do! I had three carpenters look at my stairs. The first carpenter shook his head and said he had no clue where to start. The second carpenter was Brian from B&C, who I found through an online search and was blown away by their great reviews and the pictures of their amazing work! Brian immediately started calculating available space, and thinking outside the box. His knowledge and transparency inspired me to have great confidence in him and his price was super reasonable! The third carpenter came across as this being not a great challenge, which I knew better, and proceeded to give me a price that was nearly double of Brian's. So, our choice was clear. Brian had pre construction meetings with us to keep us apprised of his plans, as well as meetings during the construction. After calculating and brainstorming with his crew, he said he could reframe the ceiling at the bottom to give more head space. He also discussed cutting into and reframing the top landing to get additional space. Brian kept us informed each step of the way and his craftsmanship was impressive. We started the work on November 1, with our only deadline being completed before Thanksgiving. Brian completed our work in about 10 days! While I did post a couple of finished photos, B&C's websites will have good before and after pictures. I wholeheartedly recommend B&C for any carpentry job. You will get honesty, integrity, transparency, great communication, fair pricing and old fashioned craftsmanship! read more

I contacted B&C for handyman repair. The called back immediately. They let me know when they would arrive. They even texted me when they were going to be 20 minutes late. They are professional, courteous, knowledgeable and friendly. I was missing parts for my job so they improvised with things on the truck. The price was reasonable. They are through and cleaned up after themselves. They brought paper for the floors in case they needed to put it down. They worked efficiently. They got right to work when they arrived. Overall a wonderful experience. They fixed multiple things that had been waiting for a long time. I recommend them highly. Give them a call. You will not be disappointed. read more

Brian was superb, couldn't have asked for a better professional to help with our house repairs. After calling he came over to view the proposed projects and set a reasonable price. Our house hasn't looked this good since we moved in. I'd highly recommend B & C to anyone else in the area. read more
