How we do it
Our Carpentry & Trim Process
- 1
Measure
Precise measurements and profile matching before anything is cut.
- 2
Cut & fit
Coped inside corners and glued miters for tight joints.
- 3
Install
Nailed to framing, level and consistent.
- 4
Finish
Fill, caulk and paint-ready — or painted, if you choose.
Tight joints, filled and painted
Coped inside corners, glued miters, filled nail holes and caulked seams. We finish trim so it's ready to live with, not ready for someone else to finish.
Catch wood rot early
Soft window sills and door trim usually mean water is getting in. Replacing the bad section and sealing it properly is far cheaper than waiting for framing damage.
Handyman carpentry services
Finish carpentry is where a room gets its polish. Our handyman carpentry services cover trim, small built-ins and the repairs that keep wood from failing.
Wood rot repair
Soft window sills, door frames and exterior trim are cut back to sound wood, replaced and sealed so water stops getting in.
Custom touches
Wainscoting, board-and-batten and simple built-in shelving give plain rooms character.
A carpenter handyman for small carpentry jobs
Replacing a stretch of baseboard, building a closet shelf or fixing a rotted sill is too small for most carpenters and too detailed for most handymen. Our carpenter handymen do both.
What affects the price
Every job is different, so we price after we understand yours — and you'll always know the cost before we start. The biggest factors:
Linear feet of trim
Trim profile and material
Removal of old or rotted trim
Painting included or not
Tip from the Fox
Caulk the top edge of baseboards, not the bottom. It hides gaps against the wall without trapping dirt at the floor.
