About

Meet Nick

I’m Nick, the person behind Dovetails Home Services, based in Derry, New Hampshire.

Dovetails began as a small family woodworking business in the fall of 2019. I bring over 15 years of construction and carpentry experience to the work I do today.

I help homeowners tackle the repairs, painting, installations, and upkeep that pile up around a house—and build custom pieces when the right solution isn’t sitting on a store shelf.

I like figuring out what a home needs and finding a practical way to handle it. Sometimes that means a small adjustment. Sometimes it means repairing what’s already there. Sometimes it means making something to fit the space.

The name Dovetails comes from woodworking: careful preparation, a good fit, and work that holds together. That’s the standard I bring to a painted room, a repaired door, or a custom shelf.

Working in someone’s home is a responsibility. That means taking care around your belongings and cleaning up after the work. I want you to understand the plan and the price, feel comfortable asking questions, and know you’ll be consulted if something unexpected comes up.

I also want each visit to make the next one easier. I keep notes on the work, materials, paint colors, and things worth watching, so we can build on what we already know about your home. A saved paint color helps with a later touch-up; a material note helps identify what was used; a record of completed work gives us a useful starting point when you call again.

My goal is to be someone you feel comfortable calling again—whether you have a punch list, a property to prepare for sale, or an idea you’d like help bringing to life.

Let’s get it handled.
