Derek is a true professional craftsman that we highly recommend. Derek installed our butcher block counter tops and fine tuned our kitchen cabinet installation. We would gladly hire him again! Use Derek & you won't be disappointed. Absolutely top shelf, extremely professional and unlike so many businesses absolutely stuck to his price.
We added a few things, but he was even reasonable with that. Derek Damaso upgraded the base moldings throughout our living area and built custom pantry shelves and a decorative valance and surround for our 12 foot sliding doors. He is a true craftsman. All aspects of his work are done with pride and meticulous care.
We hired Derek to build us a custom electric fireplace in the main living area of our home. Through out the entire process, Derek was collaborative with ideas, detailed with his work and was very mindful to constantly keep the area clean of debris, dust or paint. Derek is super kind & caring, passionate about his work and is very intentional with every ounce of work he puts into a job.

We had shiplap installed on a very large wall in the living room and under our kitchen island. The work was unbelievable!!!! A true master carpenter. From the time Derek walked into our home to the time he completed the work he had treated it as if it was his own.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had our home painted by professionals shortly after he completed the job, they said "in 25 yrs of painting they had never seen such accurate cuts and outstanding quality work"!
We have moved onto having him install a custom door on our pantry. I have no doubt it will be top quality and an outstanding

Positive: Quality
Derek was able to secure the wood materials needed for a complete wall unit bookcase despite considerable lumber shortages. He then expertly constructed the unit in two weeks and installed it in one day. Truly met all my expectations and his price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend him for your finish carpentry needs!

Derek did a fantastic job. We had him replace wire shelves in our pantry with wood shelves. He arrived with a plan and all the necessary materials. Throughout the job his work was clean and neat. The quality of the materials he used and the results are excellent.
We appreciated the attention to detail in his design and the actual work. The shelves are sturdy and look great. We have no hesitation for having him back for our next carpentry project.

Derek did a fantastic job installing crown molding in 5 spaces within our new home; he came out and looked at the job beforehand, gave us a very detailed estimate and then did the installation all in one day. He was on time, did an extremely professional job and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend him for any finished carpentry work and will likely have him back to do more work in our home. A true professional craftsman!

Derek did an outstanding job in installing bead board under a section of countertop. It looks fantastic and he completed the job on time in a very thorough, neat and professional manner. If you are looking for top notch carpentry work, Damaso Finish Carpentry should be at the top of your list.

Derek is super kind & caring, passionate about his work and is very intentional with every ounce of work he puts into a job.
He went above and beyond to help us install the TV and fireplace unit, having even run out to get bolts for the TV amount that were worn after years of use & needed to be replaced.
It’s that level of detail

I found Derek on the internet after the first finish carpenter recommended to me was fired. Derek and I talked about his work and I heard the right things so I decided to give him a shot. Glad I did! He is a craftsman who I produces the high quality product I expected. His pricing is very reasonable as is his pace of work. If you don't want to mess around with going through other so called carpenters till you find a good one, I have done that for you. Call Derek.

Derek Damaso is a master carpenter. I highly recommend him for any woodworking or finishing job! He is extremely talented and creative. He is professional, reliable and very well priced for the amazing work he does. He has completed a few jobs for my neighbors in the Venice/Osprey area and every one is completed to perfection. He will be returning to do more work for me soon! 10+++
