Platinum Woodworking
Dean Rovedo Jr.
What is your role at Platinum Woodworking, and how long have you been with the team?
I founded Platinum Woodworking back in 2011. Over the last 15 years, I've guided our growth from general custom carpentry into a full custom cabinet shop, focusing on creating high-quality, standout pieces for our clients' homes.
What got you into woodworking or craftsmanship, and what is your favorite type of project to build?
My true passion has always been cabinetry, precision woodworking, and custom closets. There is nothing better than taking a design from paper and turning it into a beautiful, functional centerpiece that completely transforms a homeowner's space.
What is one thing you love about working with Platinum Woodworking?
Our name and reputation are built entirely on our results, and I love that our whole team shares that standard. We aren't finished until a homeowner is completely satisfied, and seeing a client's excitement when a project comes together makes it all worth it.
When you are not on a job site or in the shop, what can we find you doing?
When I'm not clocked in, which isn't much! You can usually find me out on the soccer field watching my kids play, or tackling projects around the yard and house. I love being outside as much as possible and spending time with my family.

I specialize in bringing custom projects to life from scratch, handling every single step of the process from raw wood to the final finish.

My passion for building started right at home, working on small projects around the house with my dad. I’ve loved working with my hands since I was a kid. While I enjoy crafting just about anything, I have a real sweet spot for unique, intricate projects that require fine detail and absolute precision.

When you are not on a job site or in the shop, what can we find you doing?
When I’m off the clock, I like to keep moving. You’ll usually find me out riding my dirtbike or motorcycle, catching a live concert, going for a run, or just kicking back and spending quality time with friends and family.
