    Carpentry

    Trim, built-ins, doors, stairs, and framing — woodwork that keeps homes sound and looking sharp.

    Scope

    Carpentry Services

    Trim and finish carpentry

    Baseboard installation and repair, door and window casing, crown molding, chair rail, and wainscoting. Precision work — gaps and misaligned miters are visible.

    Door and window installation

    Interior and exterior door installation, window trim, and rough opening adjustments. Set plumb and level so they swing, latch, and seal properly.

    Stair work

    Stair tread replacement, riser repair, handrail installation and repair, and baluster replacement.

    Built-in cabinetry and shelving

    Custom bookshelves, window seats, mudroom benches, entertainment centers, and storage units built to fit the specific space.

    Framing repairs

    Structural framing — sistering damaged joists, repairing notched or cut framing, and correcting improper modifications from previous owners. Common in older Metro Detroit homes.

    Deck and porch framing

    Framing built to code with properly sized members and correct fasteners.

    Subfloor repair

    Squeaky floors, soft spots, and damaged subfloor sections. Most squeaks are a fastener problem — re-fastening eliminates them without tearing up the finished floor.

    Attic hatches and access panels

    Properly framed and finished attic hatches, crawl space access, and plumbing access panels.

    Craft

    Finish vs. Rough Carpentry

    Finish Carpentry

    The visible work — trim, molding, built-ins, doors. Requires precise cuts, tight joints, and clean installation.

    Rough Carpentry

    Structural — framing, subfloor, sheathing. Needs to be sound, square, and properly fastened.

    The finish work on top is only as good as the rough work underneath. We do both.
