Welcome to White Birch Carpentry
Restoring Original Beauty And Creating New
What began as a 20+ year hobby, turned into a part time business. Whether it's working on the unique elegance of a historic home or creating new pieces for modern design, the attention to detail in the final product is the ultimate motivation.
Hi there,...I'm Jim.
It's all in the details...
I was rather blessed to grow up in a family full of tradesmen, it truly helped me learn at a young age. I mean, you couldn't throw a wrench at a family reunion without hitting a contractor! In the beginning, I learned simply through observation. My first, and most important teacher, was my father. What started as being a "helper" for a hard working electrician, turned into an interest for tools and building things with my own two hands. I loved seeing things come to life. During my early 20's I learned the sheet metal fabrication and welding trades. This quickly turned into general contracting and woodworking. As time went on, my attraction to older construction and finish carpentry grew into a passion and my thirst for learning this trade became somewhat of an obsession. This, combined with my attention to detail, is what drives me today. The completion of a challenging task is simply the best reward.
A Sampling of Projects and Products
What I’ve Created and Installed
I only use the finest materials when creating a new piece. Whenever possible, I source materials locally and seek out businesses with an environmental sustainability policy. Using these materials, I work hand in hand with the customer on repairs, restorations, or custom design items. To make a request for your own custom project, please get in touch today.
