"I founded Blade and Brush Finishing in 2020 after recognizing a demand for the type of work where my experience truly shines. With over twenty years in restoration, painting, carpentry, and project management, I’ve built my career working as both an employee and subcontractor, gaining a deep understanding of what homeowners and businesses value most: quality, trust, and results that last.

Blade and Brush was created to fill the gap between large nationwide companies and high-end design build firms that often come with inflated costs and/or impersonal service. My goal was simple; deliver a high-quality product with a small footprint, keeping overhead low so that clients receive exceptional craftsmanship at a reasonable price.

Today, I lead a small, dedicated team that includes a trusted helper and a network of skilled mechanical contractors I rely on for specialized work. Together, we bring the same attention to detail, reliability, and pride of workmanship to every project: whether it’s historic restoration, a full home renovation, or a single-room transformation like a kitchen or bathroom.

At Blade and Brush Finishing, our mission is to understand your needs, create a clear plan, and deliver durable, long-lasting results. We believe your home deserves more than a quick fix. It deserves a finish that will stand the test of time."
