Testimonials
“Nolee was a godsend, truly. The project I sent her was massive, complex and incredibly meaningful to our family. Nolee got to work immediately. Not only did she make our vision come true, but she put us to rest throughout. It’s impossible to find someone as competent, capable and downright good as Nolee.You can keep searching, but I think you’ve found your person here. Hire Nolee, or I will!”

“ Nolee came with smashing reviews from our mutual friend, so we were eager to hire her for a built-in bench for a breakfast nook in our kitchen. Nolee is so talented. She answered all my questions and walked me through her tools and processes - I’m a wannabe DIY queen, but alas, I hired Nolee because I’m certainly not a DIY queen. During her three day visit to my house she told me about how she’s giving back by teaching other women how to build. I LOVE THIS IDEA. Carpentry is a woman’s place too. And she’s proof 100%. Additionally she had a wonderful and professional presence to have in my home and around my kids. She has remarkably easy and kind conversation and I’d ultimately a very skilled craftwoman. Proud to have a woman-built piece of furniture in my home. Hire her.”

“I met Nolee through a neighbor and was fortunate to hire her to complete a few projects in my kitchen. She was so helpful while walking through the space and really took the time to understand everything that I wanted to complete. She was meticulous in setting a new cabinet, adding new shelves, plus building and installing a new pop-up platform in a lower cabinet for our kitchen aide mixer. Her attention to detail was so appreciated. Nolee went above and beyond to complete the project in a timely manner with the highest level of craftsmanship. She even installed new weatherstripping on my back door when she noticed mine was faulty. I would absolutely hire Nolee again for anything in my house. She is smart, talented, and so kind! 5 stars!” — Meagan H.
