For Concrete Pete

• Sep 11th 2022

Working with Concrete Pete was actually fun!
He was great communicating about the project, including which choices I had in terms of the base for my items (two dressers, one wide and one tall). He helped me learn the limits of the available materials and hardware, which provided me with the parameters with which I needed to describe the pieces before he finished designing them. He sent sketches of his designs, and I helped tweak them to fit my needs.
The project was completed much earlier than expected, which was a boon for us, since we had expected the project to take longer to build than it actually did.
When we arrived to pick them up, Pete helped us plan how to pack and load the two fairly large dressers into the back of our pickup truck.
It was a rainy morning when we arrived, so he helped us seal the items into tarpaulins and plastic shrink-wrap to make sure the they remained dry on our journey home (about 450 miles) even though the dressers rode in the bed of our open pick-up truck. He helped secure corner protectors onto the dressers and even helped to load them onto the truck with my husband.
When we arrived home, we realised that we'd lost some screws necessary to attach the base onto one of our dressers. I texted Pete, and he replied right away, telling me which screws he used and the size to buy. He also agreed to email us the directions on how to adjust the drawers of the dressers so that they lined up the way we wanted, so that all of the gaps between all of the drawer fronts were equal.
So, in addition to building us two beautiful, heirloom-quality pieces of fine furniture, Pete helped us -literally- for hours to make sure we got on our way safely with his creations. I highly recommend Concrete Pete for his professionalism, design sense and style, and timely execution of our project.
