Bartholomew WoodWorks

Swapped out some old wood doors to new 3/4 glass doors. Really updates the curb appeal! Brightens up both entrances of the home as well. Side door was shorter than a standard door so I had to shorten the transom window and raise it up. #durhamregion #carpenter #curbappeal #whitby #notjustatrimcarpenter

New deck build in oshawa! Approximately 320 square feet. Built in raised garden beds (dirt and plants coming soon - along with new sod) river rock around the AC unit for low maintenance. #deck #durhamregion #carpenter #deckseason #oshawa

Small trim job today. Waterfalling down the stairs always looks awesome. Just needs some nail filler and some paint! #trim #durhamregion #carpenter #weekendwork #nodap @ Whitby, Ontario

Small job today to finish off some cabinetry and crown that another contractor couldnt/wouldnt finish. No job is too small! #smalljob #cabinetry #durhamregion #courtice #carpenter

Big step towards my own business! Starting September 1st I am out on my own as a contractor. Been hustling 6-7 days a week working full time and doing my own thing on weekends. Finally taking the plunge. Trailer from @viatrailersbolton Jason was a huge help! Looking forward to loading it with shelving and tools. #durhamregion #carpenter #contractor #newbusiness @ Whitby, Ontario

Not bad for a morning... Posthole guy worked his magic before i got there. Rained out for the day. Finish it tomorrow! #fence #durhamregion #carpenter #handyman #rainday

Bathroom reconfigure and shower addition complete. Took over an old closet and made it a laundry room. Moved walls around and added a shower to the mainfloor. Bumped a new closet into the garage as well. #handyman #renovation #bathroomremodel #durhamregion #mainfloorlaundry @ Whitby, Ontario

Project from the other day. 16 foot long garbage/recycling area attached to the side of a house/ B+B. Automotive pistons to keep the doors up. Client is going to be paiting it as well. #whitby #carpenter #handyman #durhamregion @ Whitby, Ontario

Small project from the other day. Replaced some small retaining walls around some patio slabs. Old ones were falling apart. #durhamregion #handyman #patio #oshawa @ Oshawa, Ontario

Heres the deck that I did over the last 2 weekends. Tore out the old, reframed the entire thing, moved the stairs and finished it all with pressure treated lumber. Huge difference to this house! #durhamregion #deck #carpenter #curbappeal @ Oshawa, Ontario

A recycling cabinet I made a few weeks ago. Finally got some handles for it and popped them on. Just barely enough space for 4 bins, but we made it work. Painted white cabinet with a maple top stained to match the kitchen cabinetry. #recycling #durhamregion #carpenter #custom @ Oshawa, Ontario

Its deck season! Getting material today so that i dont have to wait in the weekend lines. Look at that new camera, finally got a new phone. #deck #durhamregion #lgg8x #colorado #trucklife #carpenter

Swapped out a few doors today. From old flat slab doors to something a bit updated. Wish i had taken some before pictures. Looks so much nicer now! #carpenter #durhamregion #handyman @ Oshawa, Ontario

Got an odd request the other day to make a guitar into a shelf. Theres a first time for everything right? Went surprisingly smooth. Looks awesome I think! #shelf #guitar #carpenter #durhamregion @ Whitby, Ontario

A little before and after of this closet space. All the paint touch ups were finished today. Sorry for the blurry pics, its time for a new phone. Stained the oak benchtop to the same color as the floors. White cabinet cubbies under with some shelves above. Hooks for coats/backpacks. The only struggle now will be getting the kids to use the hooks. #durhamregion #carpenter #entryway #bench @ Oshawa, Ontario

Setup plastic and a fan to keep most of the dust out of the rest of the house. Drywall sanding day is always the worst. Painted and ready to go for cabinet install tomorrow! #drywall #painting #durhamregion #handyman #renovation @ Oshawa, Ontario

Cabinets painted and ready to go out for install. Need to sand/paint the walls before though. Installed pictures coming saturday hopefully! #bench #mudroom #carpenter #durhamregion @ Whitby, Ontario

With a workshop full of old tools found on kijiji. This is my favourite. Made in 1998 and aside from new blades its original and still taking 15" of oak all at once. #busybeetools #durhamregion #oldtools #oak #carpenter

Joined the Festool club today. Hurts the wallet, but it saves alot of time and cursing! Cant wait to get into really using this thing. Starting it off easy with some carcass and faceframe work. So far so good #festool #carpentry #durhamregion @ Whitby, Ontario

Had a bunch of scrap wood around the shop so I decided to make an end grain butcher block. Mostly walnut, with some ash and sapele thrown in. Finished with BoosBlocks butcherblock oil. #endgraincuttingboards #boosblocks #durhamregion #forsale #beauty #walnut @ Whitby, Ontario

Side table complete! All solid maple construction, baltic birch plywood drawer box. Finished in a cabinet laquer, in the benjamin moore color Coventry Grey. With a solid soapstone top. Dimensions are: 28" tall 24.5" wide... 16" deep If you are interested in purchasing it please message me! #carpentry #soapstone #benjaminmoore #custom #quarantineprojects #solidwood #nopocketholes @ Whitby, Ontario

Making an end table or night stand. Using some meterials I have laying around and a slab of soapstone for the top. The new toy saves so much time sanding these doors. Especially when you are avoiding changing your planer blades.... Table may be for sale in the near future! #durhamregion #carpenter #busybeetools #newtools #imtoolazytochangemyplanerblades... @ Whitby, Ontario See more

Washer/drier relocation is done! Tucked away in a cabinet within the bathroom. All plumbing and venting is accessible from the old closet doors. With a little bit of storage left over for brooms or mops. #mainfloorlaundry #durhamregion #handyman #carpenter #samsung @ Oshawa, Ontario

Washer and drier cabinet is now in! Paint color matched to the vanity. Drywall work is all done, and painted. Washer and drier are going to be stacked in anyday now. Excuse the bad lighting, my camera lense is cracked. #mainfloorlaundry #durhamregion #carpenter #bathroom

First coat of mud went on today. 2 more then paintinf time! Washer/drier relocation well on its way! #durhamregion #handyman #renovation #drywall @ Oshawa, Ontario

Dont normally do plumbing, but certainly can do small jobs. Had to add a drain for a washer/drier and had to do some creative work on the waterlines to make it through. Once the electrician comes in, its onto drywall and taping! More pics to come soon #handyman #durhamregion #mainfloorlaundry

Doing a bit of evening workshop organization while my daughter visits grandma. Shelving was torn out of a kitchen renovation, so working with what i was given. Every little bit helps! #durhamregion #workshop #organization #recycle #carpenter

Well most of the baseboard and casing is up! Homeowner now wants to continue through the whole house. Not looking forward to painting the 900 feet of casing and 600 feet of baseboard. If you are a painter and are prepared to work for a particularly picky client, hit me up and we can maybe get a quote going. ... #painting #trim #durhamregion #handyman #carpentry @ Whitby, Ontario

Nothing too exciting this weekend... Just a drive out to the Royal woodshop to pickup casing and baseboard... Then painting... And painting.. And ... More painting. #benjaminmoore #baseboard #painting #durhamregion

Cabinets all made and installed! Tight fit, but it made it! Lots of storage added to the laundry room in the basement. #custom #cabinetry #durhamregion #carpenter #handyman @ Oshawa, Ontario

Let the cabinet making begin! Love it when an old client calls and wants more work done. #repeat #custom #carpenter #weekend

Here we go again! Terrible doorways by the previous contractor. All fixed up! This time with 'after' pictures. #hardwoodfloors #doors #carpenter #handyman #durhamregion @ Whitby, Ontario

Well these are some pictures from the terrible previous contractor. Seems like he didnt know how to undercut door jambs, or work around them. This is just one example of the 5 doors i fixed today. And yes - even in this weather, I still do all my cutting outside. To keep your house and your lungs clean while im working! Sorry, im new to social media and forgot to take some after pictures! ... #flooring #handyman #carpenter #butcher @ Whitby, Ontario

Got an interesting little job coming tomorrow. Replacing some hardwood floor boards! Pics to come tomorrow
