What is included

From a cracked baseboard to a full built-in

Good carpentry is measured, cut, and fitted to your home, not forced into it (This Old House has a solid carpentry guide if you want to nerd out). Here is what we handle:

One real project

Same mudroom, start to finish

A custom built-in we designed and built for a Bergen County home: shiplap, bench, hooks, and shelf, fitted to the space. Left is mid-build, right is the finished result.

Honest pricing

What drives the price of carpentry work

A repair and a custom build are different jobs. Send photos and you get a clear written number before any work starts.

Repair or custom build

Fixing a cracked baseboard is quick. Designing and building a built-in from scratch is a project. Both are welcome.

Materials and matching

Stock lumber is one price. Sourcing or custom cutting trim to match a 1950s profile takes more time and care.

Structure involved

Cosmetic trim is surface work. Warped framing or a load-bearing repair means opening things up and doing it right.

Finish level

Paint-grade and display-grade are different standards. Tell us how it should look and we quote accordingly.

Custom carpentry across Englewood, Alpine, Closter, and nearby Bergen County towns.

Questions

Carpentry questions, answered

How long does a carpentry job take?

Most small repairs and installs are finished the same day. Custom work and structural fixes take longer depending on complexity and materials, and you get a clear timeline with your written estimate.

Yes. We source matching materials where they exist, and custom cut new trim to match your home’s existing style and dimensions when they do not.

Yes. Built-ins, shelving, benches, and storage designed around your space are some of our favorite projects, like the mudroom on this page.

Yes, both interior and exterior. Outside work uses materials chosen to resist weather and moisture, so the repair lasts. Rotted exterior wood has its own page: see wood rot and deck repair.

Sawdust happens, but it stays under control. We use drop cloths, clean as we go, and leave your space tidy when the job is done.
