We found Brett and his team to be very accommodating to our needs and helpful with suggestions. The work was done efficiently and on time. Great care was taken with the job site and the quality of the craftsmanship was superb. We have now contracted Sherwood for additional work in our village.
It's been almost a year and I've hoped Brett Murphy would man up and admit he took my money and failed to complete the work promised. Reading the other reviews, I suspect Brett takes these small jobs between bigger jobs, then bails when something better comes along. He was quick to ask for a deposit and I should have been suspicious when he put the one fence post he had to sink in totally the wrong place. Yet I gave him more money when I said I wanted some decorative iron added to the project. Because I was going away, I shook Bret's hand and gave him the balance due as he assured me he'd be finishing the next day. I returned the next week, having paid 100%, and found no gates, unfinished fence panels and missing material that I had bought and paid for. Much like other reviewers, I had multiple attempts at contact (even before this point he was sending red flags that I ignored), I received a couple of empty promises and learned a valuable lesson. Please, learn from the mistakes of others and don't hire Brett Murphy or do any business with Sherwood Carpentry. It is people and companies like this that make it hard for the honest, hardworking contractors. Brett, if you're reading this, at best I'd like you to refund my money; at the very least, be a man and admit you were unprofessional and dishonest and offer me an apology. And to everyone else reading this, consider yourself warned... DO NOT HIRE or do business with BRETT MURPHY or SHERWOOD CARPENTRY.
Brett Murphy is s good guy to work with. Ee met..discussed briefly the scope of work....went on a trip.....came back and was pleasantly satisfied with the end result. Actually the job that was done surpassed my expectations.
Brett and his team were extrememly professional. Many nights they asked to work late to ensure the basment was done quickly but properly paying attention to all tje fine details. Nothing was rushed and the teams attention to detail can be seen as soon as you walk into the room. I would highly recommend Sherwood Carpentry and Contracting to anyone and feel that they are worth every penny.
I hired Brett Murphy from Sherwood Carpentry & Contracting to supply and install pressure treated fence and upgraded gates. We initiated contact in 2016, but with the winter weather approaching, I was advised that the work would commence in the Spring of 2017. In May 2017, I paid a cash deposit of 30%, signed a contact indicating that the work comes with a 2-year workmanship warranty. The posts were installed and full fence installation soon thereafter. After the job was completed, I paid the balance of the work. In just 2 months after the installation, I noticed the gates were both misaligned and the hinges were not engaging. I messaged Brett and received no response, messaged again the next week, and no response, left voicemails and no response. After 2 months of messaging (and I know he was reading my messages) he finally responded with a message saying that he would come by and look at my gates. It is now 6 weeks since that message, and haven’t received any indication that he is following up on that statement, despite numerous reminders from me. I decided to take a good look at the quality of his workmanship, and noticed that all of the screws used when fastening the rails were too long and are piercing through from the other side leaving sharp points all along my fence. The gate has very long screw points also all over. Very dangerous with kids playing in the back yard. I would advise anyone if hiring this company to holdback 10% for warranty services because once he’s got your money, you no longer exist. Pretty sad and disappointing.
Sounds to me like the 3 other review for this this company had to have been done from within. He did fences for 5 houses along my row and was everything opposite to the reviews here. First off he said he would have fences done in 2 weeks, instead took him 2 months, and it almost went to a law suite because he started the job but wouldn't finish. Destroyed the grass on 3 properties to the point where he had to re sod everything. Terrible job with workmanship, no professionalism whatsoever. The list of disappointments goes on and on with Brett, but I've already wasted too much time on him to continue on here.
Horrible experience. Truly regret it.
Without a doubt, Sherwood Carpentey & Contracting provided superb workmanship on our new fence. Neighbors came by to check it out and were impressed with the quality and look of it also. Waiting for the other side of fence to fall over now so we can replace with the same quality and durable fence that SC&C completed.
Brett and his crew were friendly and professional ... book this company if you looking for very reasonable pricing and quality work.
The entire staff was very professional, efficient and polite. They did an amazing job and got it finished within a day. I'm very happy with the results of my deck and the service they provided. Would recommend to anybody looking for deck installation!
We had Brett and his crew at Sherwood Carpentry & Contracting build a fence for us and our neighbours in a new subdivision. Brett and his crew are extremely professional and do fantastic work. Workmanship and quality was 100%. They do landscaping and build decks as well and when the time comes I would definitely use then.
Thanks Brett for all your hard work.
