Hire a good Amish carpentry crew and relax. They know wood, even ersatz
wood, they show up on time, clean up after themselves, they don't drink,
they don't smoke, they don't do drugs, and they don't steal. Union
contractors around here won't touch small-scale individual residential
work, like a deck,so when I need carpentry work, I contact one of the
elders.

Can you recommend a Amish carpentry crew in the CT, MA area?

There aren't any.

I did have an experience with an Amish barn crew though - that was
incredible. I bought a old post and beam barn at an auction - barn
and contents - and looked around for a crew to disassemble the barn
and rebuild it. One of the local farmer's recommended a crew out of
Pennsylvania.

After all the prep work on the new foundation was done, I called these
guys - they gave me a great quote - deal done.

Torn down, transported and the skeleton back up on the new foundation
the same day. Barn sides and roofed the next - done.

Amazing.
