Fence RePost

Excellent work by Tom and crew. They were on-time and on-budget, and the work is first class. It was just a simple fence post replacement but something tells me this post will outlive the rest of the fence. Definitely plan on using them again.

Thank you Neil for taking the time for this kind review of the small reposting job we did for you in your home in Toronto, not Brantford! Here's wishing you all the very best!

Back yard fence and gate

Rawlinson Carpentry was excellent. They are very knowledgeable in their work. Their extensive knowledge in their trade helped us make the right decision for our fence design for our back yard. They made an excellent fence and gate for us, very sturdy and great looking. They maintain a very tidy and organized work site. We have recieved many compliments from our neighbors already. Very competitive pricing and work is completed on estimated schedule. We could not be more happy about our decision.

Deck & drainage

Rawlinson Carpentry just finished replacing our deck, improving drainage and adding other touches. The work was carefully planned, then meticulously and skillfully done. They were courteous and left the site tidy at the end of every day. And by far the lowest price. A gem.

Replace wooden stairs for deck

Thomas is very knowledgeable and is a true professional. Everything was done in a detailed and honest manner from the initial assessment, detailed write-up of the estimate, scheduling, communication, and invoicing. The quality of his work is excellent. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rawlinson Carpentry to others.

Stairs and landing

I called Rawlinson Carpentry to replace my old, rotten backyard stairs and landing. Thomas was extremely informative and knowledgeable and provided specific information including pros and cons of various options. Thomas provided me with a very detailed quote with all items explained, and made it very easy to book a time slot. The work was beautifully done, the quality and appearance are much greater than I'd even expected. I feel proud to have this quality of work in my home and it's clear that both Thomas and Tom take a great deal of pride in their work. I'm happy to recommend Rawlinson Carpentry to anyone.

Deck

We are very happy with the deck. Thomas is an excellent communicator, sharing his knowledge and recommendations, and explaining the stages of the building process. He was always accessible by email.
Thomas' scheduling was realistic and had no surprises. Any necessary changes were kept close to schedule as weather would permit.
Thomas and Tom, his assistant, were organized and totally professional. Thomas' skill, organization and workmanship produced a deck for which we are most satisfied. We are very happy to recommend Thomas any time.

J & C ....Thank you for taking the time and giving us this terrific and detailed review!
Your two decks and your beautiful yard were a pleasure to work in and yes our makeover does truly shine, and we do many of these to save many clients the price of an all new deck(s) as most times it is just the flooring portion that gets all the UV, water and wear and tear and can easily be changed as you've now seen! It looks like a brand new deck with the railings capped and the planters and steps redone... we too are proud of the final result also! Here's wishing you and family, the very best from us both!

Cedar Porch and Fence

Thomas takes great pride in his work. He hand selected the materials for the porch and fence in order to ensure each item was of the highest quality. He arrived when he said he would and kept us informed at each step of the project. The work site was left tidy each day.

Thank you so much Lois for taking the time to do this review, and for your kind words about our service, it is much appreciated. Working with hand picked cedar on both the new custom porch and the fencing is something I enjoy to do very much as WRC is a delight to work with. And the response from not only you, but many of your kind neighbors who took the time to compliment us..is the reason I do what I do and we are extremely proud of the end result and we're glad you are most happy with the work. We wish you the very best for a wonderful balance to your summer season!

New horizontal fence

We were so happy with the service and skill from Rawlinson Carpentry! While they were on site Thomas and Tom were friendly, considerate of our neighbours, and extremely tidy! We really liked working with them, and plan to hire them again to redo our retaining walls. In the meantime, we love our new fence. It turned out beautifully and has transformed our backyard. I can't recommend Rawlinson highly enough.

Too good, and it’s true!

You know the old saying, “When something looks too good to be true, it probably is”? Well in the case of RC Woodmasters Tom/Tom are too good, and it is true.

While they appear low profile in online searches I want to assure potential clients that they are legit and fantastic. I almost don’t want to post on here because you might take the spot for my next project.

Why was I happy with the 150 ft long 6-8 ft. high fence with gate? Here are my four main reasons:

Communication – Often the worst trait of a contractor is their ability and consistency in communication. Thomas on the other hand is very different. Thomas was quick to reply, accessible by phone, email and text, and didn’t shy away from taking the time to explain things which I valued. He never made me feel dumb asking many questions either and was very clear and transparent with invoicing and prices.

Cleanliness – These guys leave the place cleaner than when they started. Even after mixing a skid full of cement there was no dust anywhere or hardly even a nail left. I have a 1.5 year old and we were out playing in the backyard each day after they left I had no concerns during the project.

Value – I am not rich enough to buy something twice; so while price is important I wanted to spend money on quality. With Tom/Tom you get quality service, materials, design, and building all at a price that beat out the 3 other quotes I received.

Professionalism – Provides recommendations, guidance from experience, does all work by hand (no nail gun), knows wind load standards, hand digs 4+ foot holes for concrete all in the blazing 35 degree heat.

All in all we are thrilled. Seriously give them a call and you won’t be disappointed. I’m even having a quote prepped for our deck after seeing what they did with a fence.

Thank you gentlemen.
