I had a water leak in my kitchen and they found it had been happening for a long time. So they ripped out my lower cabinets and wood floor. So I hired Jose of BK Carpentry because he had so many good reviews on Yelp. I had a couple of estimates, one said I would lose my granite tops, they cost $5,000. Jose said he could save them, and he did. He and his crew did a wonderful job. I would hire him again in a minute. read more

Brian is a superb carpenter. He wants things right! He's friendly but professional in every way. He pays attention to detail. He has done many jobs for me like replacing old outdated doors, repairing fencing, building a new fence around my ac unit to make it quieter for the neighbors! Repairing a vanity so i didn't have to replace it. From small jobs to big jobs, i highly recommend him. He has years of experience and is excellent at selecting the quality materials for a job that will last. read more

Truly outstanding work at very reasonable prices. Brian and Eric are the best - they did a superb job fixing a bunch of dry rot at my house along with some other projects. They show up when they say they will, do the work as promised, and clean up everything better than any other contractor I've hired. They're also really nice guys. They get 10 stars! read more

Shout out to Brian and his brother Erik who just finished a complex and very difficult replacement of a large supporting beam on my deck. It was not an easy task but Brian figured out a way to get it done and kept me apprised all along the way. Super high Quality work and customer service. I highly recommend BK Carpentry. read more

Brian talked us through exactly what we wanted in two custom-built wall shelves, then built them both with his (twin) brother. They were efficient, reliable, affable, meticulous and tidy. We waited awhile for them, but it was well worth the wait! read more

When I moved into our new office space, I needed some specialty doors and all the trim work done. After calling Brian, he got us set up with the right suppliers, parts we needed to order and a schedule for everything to be completed. The work was done right on schedule and everything looked great. I highly recommend BK Carpentry. read more

Brian did an amazing job on a remodel of the front of our house. The work he did was high- quality and he is a stickler for getting things done right and looking right. He even milled custom siding to match our existing siding when it couldn't be sourced due to supply chain issues. It looks fantastic. He is very responsive and trustworthy - I'd use him for any job! read more

Brian is awesome... He has worked on our home in Mill Valley on multiple projects, including updating deck railings, installing new doors and windows, installing new trim, and helping with both kitchen and bath updates . He has been incredibly professional, meticulous, timely, communicative, and kind throughout his time with us. You never feel with him, as I have with other tradesmen, like you are putting him out... his passion for good work is evident. He is also one of those amazing people to have on a project who can see not only his work, but also look at the bigger picture and save you time and energy (and money) in seeing how the pieces all fit together. We would recommend him absolutely, and will certainly be using his services again in the future. read more

I endorse the reviews below and stress that Brian passed my "3 Cs" test: 1. Competency-offered valuable input and executed the job extremely well; 2. Considerate/Courteous- respectful that he was working in a home and mindful of working in my presence; and 3. Cleanliness-left the work area clean after each day and after the project was completed.

Projects have included: completely replacing all my decks, rebuilding a stairwell, replacing my interior doors, building shelving underneath a stairwell, remodeling a basement, etc. I highly recommend BK Carpentry. read more

These guys were a pleasure to work with. Honest, transparent and the work was of great quality. We will use them again.

Brian at BK Carpentry did a great job! He replaced the wood railings on our front steps as the old ones had rotted out. They look great now! Brian was very professional and trustworthy. I would not hesitate to have him do another project. He even offered to replace a broken latch on my gate, without my asking. read more

Brian Knutson (BK) is an excellent carpenter and did a terrific job modifying a large shelving unit for us. He was prompt, friendly, clean and delivered exactly what he promised, when he promised. In addition, his rate is more than reasonable. I'd recommend BK highly for any home carpentry project. read more

We were very happy with Brian's work, diligence and his excellent customer service. Brian installed crown moulding and did a great job. He listened and offered helpful suggestions, communicated well and frequently about the plan/expectations and completed the job beautifully and under-budget (if you can believe that!). We will be using BK Carpentry again for future projects and highly recommend Brian. read more

This is the second time I've used Brian at BK Carpentry, the first was to turn my carport into a legal garage. This time he remodeled my kitchen, dining room, living room, hallway and family room. It turned out better than I had even hoped. He created remarkable custom touches throughout the house including a fireplace surround that hides a 55" TV and a midcentury-inspired banquette. I'm in awe of what this guy can do. Plus he's honest, tidy and loves dogs. Hire him! read more

Absolutely by far one of the best contractors we have ever had work on our homes. He tells you up front that he is adamant about giving you a job of the best quality, the time it will take, barring any job changes that you make, all with a respectable and friendly manner. We couldn't be happier. Decks, bathrooms and kitchen. He's tops! And wait, there's more, you get way more in return than you paid for! We have another project for next year that we're already planning. read more

Brian was hired to build an outdoor trash cute to allow easy disposal of trash and recycling from a second floor balcony on a historic house in Mill Valley. It was first thought that the chute could be built on top of the existing trash enclosure that was there. Brian knows best. He showed why it would not work out and detailed out his recommendation for the correct project. What can I say. He described what he was going to build but his vision was amazing when all was said and done. It blended with the historic house it was build against and looks like it was an original feature. The shingle job to match the house blew me away. Brian does top notch carpentry and never cuts corners on quality. We paid more for the work, but all great work costs more. If you don't mind spending a bit more for a licensed contractor to do phenomenal work, Brian is your guy. He does many projects for us and always makes us happy to invest in the projects we do. Thanks Brian! You are so easy to work with and you take all the guess work out of the projects with the experience you have developed over the years. Glad to know you! read more

Brian Knutson is a gem of a person and a fantastic, honest carpenter. He replaced a sliding glass door with a window and a regular door with glass on the top ( literally opening the side of the house to do it) and I could not be more pleased. He built railings, ramps, a decking, steps and fixed many small things inside and outside the house reducing the risk of falling as I am handicapped. The best thing about Brian is he listens to what you want and how you want it. He understood what I imagined and did a superb job. I could not give him a higher recommendation. He does things right down to the minutest detail. He also took everything away and left me tidy and DONE! read more

Brian is our "go to" person for construction work for us, personally, and for our friends. He is the consummate professional, e is scrupulously honest and a model for other contractors to aspire to. Brian's work is excellent-from his initial conception of the work needed through its execution. He sees things we don't and has solutions we haven't thought about. He has completed both simple and more complex jobs for us over the years. Unlike our experience with other contractors/carpenters we can trust that Brian will perform just as he promised and leave us more than satisfied with the quality of the work and always at a price often considerably less than expected. We have been so pleased with his work that we have recommended him to friends, something we don't do lightly. And those friends have been more than pleased with his work as well. We wouldn't consider working with anyone else now that we have worked with Brian. read more
