About Me

Built On Experience, Crafted Through Generations

Since 1979, Robert Nuzzo has built a career around construction, remodeling, restoration, and property improvement. From custom interiors and commercial projects in New York City to residential remodeling and restoration work throughout California, his approach has always been the same: do the job correctly, solve problems honestly, and deliver workmanship that lasts.

Today, General Trade Services helps homeowners with remodeling, handyman services, maintenance, repairs, upgrades, and water damage remediation. Every project benefits from decades of hands-on experience across nearly every aspect of residential and commercial construction.

About The Owner

The Experience Behind Every Project

For more than four decades, Robert Nuzzo has worked in construction, restoration, custom carpentry, and property evaluation. His career began in New York City as a master carpenter at the Fashion Institute of Technology, where he built scenery, displays, and custom structures for fashion shows, art exhibits, and theatrical productions.
As the owner of Vertex Interiors, he designed and built custom furniture, residential interiors, office spaces, and commercial improvements throughout New York and Connecticut. His experience eventually expanded into remodeling, restoration, property repairs, and custom home building.
After relocating to California, Robert continued his construction career while working with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (I.A.T.S.E. Local 44) in Hollywood as a prop maker and set dresser. These diverse experiences helped develop the problem-solving skills, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that continue to guide every project today.
