Who We Are

  • Fog & Finish Carpentry is a St. John’s–based carpentry and renovation company serving homeowners throughout the Northeast Avalon. We specialize in finish carpentry, interior renovations, and custom builds, delivering thoughtful workmanship and clear communication from start to finish.

    The company is owner-operated by Michael Grant, a local Red Seal journeyman carpenter with over a decade of experience in residential and commercial construction. In the field, he has lead many projects as well as taught carpentry to diverse groups of students, reinforcing a strong foundation in technique, safety, and precision. That experience shapes how every project is planned, built, and finished.

    Michael has a deep love for Newfoundland — fog and all.

  • Working in Newfoundland homes requires experience and sound judgement. Many properties have unique layouts, aging structures, and exposure to harsh coastal weather. Our approach focuses on building and renovating with durability and long-term performance in mind.

    Each project begins with thoughtful planning and clear expectations. From preparation to final finish, the goal is simple: deliver well-built work that homeowners won’t need to revisit later.

  • We believe good carpentry starts with strong fundamentals: careful planning, quality materials, and attention to detail. Every project, whether a small repair or a full renovation, deserves the same level of care and professionalism.

    Our work is guided by a commitment to honest communication, realistic timelines, and craftsmanship that holds up over time. Homeowners should feel confident in both the process and the finished result.

  • We believe that the process matters as much as the result. Projects begin with clear conversations and careful planning, followed by steady, well-managed execution.

    Clients can expect:

    • Clear scope and expectations from the outset

    • Respect for their home, schedule, and investment

    • A measured, detail-focused approach to the work

    We value transparency, sound judgement, and craftsmanship done properly.
