The Surfing Carpenter

Zach is a perfectionist and made our vision come to life. It was truly an enjoyable experience working with him and would give a 6 stars of it were possible.

Zach is very knowledgeable about trimming and did a fantastic job recommending solutions to a flooring and trim challenges. Zach and his team were punctual, professional, and did the highest quality work that was better than expected. My husband and I were so impressed with Zach and his team that we will use them again. I would rate them 10 stars if google allowed!

I highly recommend the Surfing Carpenter. Zach was a problem solver and found a way to get the plywood that covers my windows during hurricanes off the garage floor, and the custom bookshelf he made turned out great. He was very professional and went above and beyond to be sure I was happy with everything he built.

Zach did a wonderful job on our great room ceiling with tongue and groove boards stained and beams that he also painted. He built mock ups of the ceiling beams and made multiple samples of stain colors for us to choose from. He also built floating shelves and a desk for our office. The wood caused trouble with the stain for the desk and he took the time to sand it all down and restained it to match another desk we have. It ended up exactly like we wanted. He also put in molding in our ceiling tray in our bedroom and painted it. Everything is stunning. He was meticulous about protecting the rooms and other furniture, and cleaned up daily. Communication with him was great with very knowledgeable ideas and discussions to get everything exactly how we wanted it. Very friendly and a really nice guy to work with. Thanks again for a fantastic job!

Zach and his team are the absolute best! They worked super hard and were meticulous in everything they did. We had them install extensive trim (shiplap, batten, wainscoting, etc.) and everything turned out amazing. We had a pretty tight timeline and they worked into the evenings and weekends to get it done. I honestly can’t say enough good things. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Zach did a great job for us. He was punctual dependable meticulous in his construction. We are very pleased with the results and would definitely have him work on another project for us.

We had a great experience. We were transitioning to a craft room and the walk in closet needed some work. I needed hanging storage and wider shelves. We couldn’t be happier. Zach and Jonathon met with me one day. Following later that night I had a detailed quote with pictures. They showed up on time. They were courteous and cleaned up. We hardly knew they were here. 5 Stars!

We recently had our outdoor screens done and could not be happier with the results! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and genuinely pleasant. This is truly a family-owned business that takes pride in their craftsmanship, and it shows in every detail. They were timely, communicative, and treated our home with such care and respect. The quality of the screens is outstanding — sturdy, clean, and installed flawlessly. You can tell they go the extra mile to make sure the job is done right the first time. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both exceptional workmanship and that warm, personal touch. We’re so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their outdoor space. If you want honest, reliable service and beautiful results, this is the team to call!

Total excellent carpentry repairs to the rear soffit and fascia on my house.

Zach and his crew did an outstanding job removing old DIY trim throughout entryways and sliding glass doors and updating them. Each crew member can answer any questions about the project. I had an emergency come up and I had to rush out. I trusted them working in our home with no supervision. Attention to detail and pride in their work. They also clean up and no dust or debris left behind. I will def hire them again.

Absolutely the best in service, attention to detail, working in an occupied home, all care was taken to ensure protection to furniture. Upgrades to the master BR, the Den, the entry foyer (both +14 ft high) and the kitchen Island. Zach’s crew vacuumed clean every day and always stayed in communication on progress updates! Oh, and the QUALITY & workmanship! These guys can’t be beat, I’ll end as I began - absolutely the Best!!

Great experience with Zach at The Surfing Carpenter! I reached out to him with a job that ended up being a bit more in-depth than originally planned. Zach was quick to assess everything, get an organized game plan, and he made sure to communicate with me throughout every step of the repair process. Awesome and friendly service! Will certainly be using Zach for any future repairs!

I had Zach install crown and picture frame molding throughout my house and am very pleased with the results. He was meticulous and methodical in his approach, was very communicative, keeping me informed of what he was doing at every stage of the project, and cleaned up each day before he left. I recommend Zach without reservation.

The Surfing Carpenter, owned by Zach Mandeville recently did the design, layout and build of a coffered ceiling at our beachfront townhouse.

NOW I FEEL AT HOME AGAIN In 2018, the only home I had ever known since 1977 was almost entirely destroyed by Hurricane Michael and had to be demolished last year and rebuilt by Rebuild Florida - since that time, I lost a brother and a sister as well ... broken my back twice and had triple bypass heart surgery ... But I'm STILL PRAISING MY LORD AND KICKING THE DEVIL EVERY CHANCE I GET - PRAISE GOD 💗🔥💗 Well, I said that to tell y'all this‼️ I just NEVER HAVE FELT AT HOME in this here new house they built me until today when my "SURFING CARPENTER" (who is meticulous by the way) finished my "DREAM KITCHEN BAR" I've been dreaming about and praying for since I've been here in this house ... The BEST PART OF MY OLD HOME WAS MY KITCHEN & I haven't felt at home since I left my home in February of 2023 - I've felt SO LOST - SO OUT OF PLACE‼️ 😔 This new home was NOT home to me 😔 I couldn't MAKE myself be happy - try as I might - I MISSED home 😔 (Daddy had built my other home & I had even drawn the floor plans) So you can understand when God worked it out so that my dreams to have my kitchen back - well almost - and NEWER - GOTTA SHARE 💗💗💗

Zach has worked on numerous jobs for us, he’s honest, efficient, does excellent work, and is all around awesome!

The Surfing Carpenter team were very professional. We felt that they exceeded our expectation overall! Highly recommend!
