Barry did a great job with designing and building a built in wall unit in the space that used to be a standard bedroom closet along one wall. His workmanship was very good and the price was what I would have expected for a custom wall unit built from scratch. Looking around for his next project. -

We had a great experience working with Barry! We needed built in bookcases around our fireplace, a built in TV unit, and storage benches. From the start, he listened carefully to what we wanted and worked hard to think of creative solutions to make the most of our unique space. The finished product is beautiful! We were incredibly impressed with his attention to detail and desire to make sure the finished product turned out as well as possible. In addition, he is a genuinely nice person who is very easy to work with and loves what he does! We definitely recommend SoCal Carpentry. I think my husband is secretly trying to find another project for Barry to do for us! -

I hired Barry at SoCal Carpentry to create custom wall units and cabinets for my home library. I gave him hand drawn sketches of the architecture and he turned these into 3-D drawings with precise dimensions, before commencing work. The final product looked exactly like the 3-D drawings. The detailed work is of exceptional quality. Barry is a craftsman and a perfectionist. His attention to detail and fine workmanship turned the room into a professional library. Im extremely satisfied and totally delighted with the results. -

Edgar did a great job. I should have had him put a sliding door screen in for me. Quick, friendly. -

I cant say enough about how much I enjoyed working with Barry. Complete professionalism, superlative craftsmanship, and seems to be a genuinely nice guy to boot! The quality of Barrys work is very noticeably better than other small custom cabinet shops because Barry is the sole craftsman - the continuity of thought and execution is evident and worth the investment! Truly a pleasure! -

Berry was great to work with!!! He was very collaborative and reliable throughout our entire project. He worked very hard and was detail oriented to make sure that every aspect was exactly what I wanted. Most importantly he was very patient and passionate about his work. I would highly recommend Berry for any job.The built in shelf was a last minute addition which led to a time crunch for Berry. He did a great job finishing the shelf in the time frame provided with only a few minor touch ups that the time frame did not allow him to finish. He scheduled a time to come back before he left the last day. When he did come back he fixed every tiny detail. Berry was responsive, professional, and personable. I will definitely use Berry for any future jobs! -

WOW! Barry is a find! He is extremely talented and his craftsmanship is to perfection! He built a cabinet which was difficult as it had to be exact for the existing space and matching the surrounding cabinets. When he delivered the finished product is was absolutely stunning. He was very professional, excellent to communicate with, gave a fair and reasonable price and delivered more than he promised. He is a true find! I would refer him without hesitation to family and friends. -

I am grateful and fortunate that I chose SoCal Carpentry for my project. When I envisioned a built in cabinet in the dining area of my home, I consulted Barry Cantrell of SoCal Carpentry for assistance. He used my ideas, and incorporated his expertise to create a beautiful cherry wood built in that adds beauty, warmth, and functionality to the room.The few extra dollars and few extra days from the original estimate proved to be more than worth it! Barry’s skill, patience, and attention to detail resulted in a quality addition to my home. I highly recommend SoCalCarpentry! -

I was trying to install a portable AC unit in my apartment but the window spacer that was supplied was too big for my window. I called SoCal to ask if they could help me. He was very quick to respond to my call, requested pics so he could understand what I needed & made room to see me that same day. When I showed up at the shop, he took a look at the parts & explained what he could do to help. After cutting the piece so it would fit in my window, he showed me how to connect the various pieces & made sure I felt confident before I left. He went over and above for a very simple job. I would highly recommend him for any custom needs you may have. -

I was in a last minute pinch with a project, and my table saw broke. Barry took me in within an hour and helped me with the cuts I needed, not only saving my project, but showing me tips and tricks that really helped me in the end.He was friendly and professional while also took care to enforce current COVID rules even though it was just him and I there. -

Barry reached out to me to photograph a custom cabinet from his collection and was fantastic to work with! Providing a clear vision of the style and aesthetic he was seeking, the entire process was very smooth and Barry was always extremely prompt in communication. On the day-of our photoshoot, Barry was timely, professional and an overall joy to be around. Upon seeing the piece we were photographing, I was amazed at the craft and passion Barry has for his art. I would highly recommend his craftsmanship and look forward to working with him again! -

Barry did an amazing job building us a walk-in closet. I’ve always dreamed of a closet where everything has its place, and he made that a reality. He was extremely reliable and offered reasonable pricing. I wish everyone worked like him; he was so easy to communicate with. Barry provided a quote upfront, and the final cost matched perfectly. I highly recommend him! We are extremely happy with the outcome! Thank you so much, Barry! -

Barry did a great job for me on my custom cabinets! I was originallylooking to replace my kitchen cabinets but I saw the SoCal Carpentrywebsite and decided to give Barry a call. We scheduled a time to go overthe cabinets that I have and he suggested that I refinish the cabinetsrather than replacing them because they were in decent shape and justneeded to be more modern. I love the finished product! Barry was ontime, professional and saved me a ton of money. I highly suggest usingSoCal Carpentry, I know I will in the future. -

SoCal Carpentry is a great place for your wood working needs. I reached Barry through a Google search. I had a small live edge olive wood project that he was happy to work on. He was very responsive and easy to talk to about my vision. His skill and expertise produced an simple and beautiful piece for my home. He welcomed me into his traditional wood-shop and explained how he would achieve my goals for the piece. His services were fair for his high end woodworking. Furthermore, he sent me home with multiple tips and suggestions on how to care for my piece and ensure its beauty never dulls. I am truly greatful for Barry and his help with my protect. -

Barry took on a fine woodworking project for me in the stunning hard wood Cocobolo.From initiation of the project he was immediately engaged from my initial contact with him, and he understood my requirements well. He skillfully executed the project in a timely manner, keeping me up to date with progress. The completed project exceeded my expectations. Barry went the extra mile for me to “Do it Right”So Cal Carpentry is without doubt my go to shop carpentry work.I recommend his work,and work ethic. Contact him with confidence. -

SoCal Carpentry did an amazing job on my bookshelves! Barry did a great job designing and creating the look I was going for. He put in a lot work in the details that I wasn’t aware of and it came out better than I imagined. I’m excited to do more projects with SoCal Carpentry and would definitely recommend them! -
