Quality Custom Framing
Where craftsmanship meets integrity. Serving Mendocino, Sonoma, and Lake counties with pride.
Custom carpentry is the heart of what we do.
For 39years, Rob Schmetzer has framed and finished homes by hand across Mendocino, Lake & Sonoma counties — one-of-a-kind decks, pergolas, and the oversized gates folks still talk about.
The love of the craft comes first. Everything else — the additions, the structural work, the whole-home builds — is built on top of it.
Rob takes pride in a clean and organized job site, integral to his ethos to take extra care and give special attention.

Framing, decks, gates, and one-of-a-kind woodwork.
What We Build
From decks and gates to the whole build.
Nine ways we work — starting with the carpentry we love, all the way to running your whole project from foundation to finish.
In Their Words
Words from our happy clients.
Real reviews from real clients across Mendocino, Lake & Sonoma counties — gates and decks, high-wind fencing, and whole-home remodels.
“His work is built to last and, most importantly, his design ability and creative mind will set all your projects far apart from all the rest. … one [gate] in particular looks like something you might find while entering Jurassic Park or a Castle — they are HUGE, gorgeous and always a conversation piece.”
Proof, Not Claims
Whole homes, remodeled while the family stayed put.
The receipts for the full-scale work: real before-and-afters, and a remodel done from the outside in without the owners ever moving out.
“A 2018 whole-home remodel: re-sheathing the roof, foundation retrofit, new porches, full siding and new windows. Rob and his crew kept the project immaculate — important since we were living in our house during the construction.”
