“Raphael is an amazing craftsman and human being. He built the cabinets, counter and butcher block for my kitchen. His knowledge and communication skills are outstanding. He was able to translate my vision into a beautiful functional space, turning my ideas into a coherent completed project. He asked questions to clarify my ideas, gave me examples to look at and sometimes a gentle education to move me away from the impractical and expensive and towards aesthetically pleasing choices. He was able to make me beautiful custom cabinets and a butcher block counter for a fair price and on schedule. His knowledge about building is encyclopedic. Thanks to him, my kitchen is the favorite part of my house.”
