Carpentry Repairs

Carpentry Repairs done the way it should be

Painting over soft wood is the fastest way to waste a paint job. The paint looks good for a season, then the rot underneath pushes it off. On older houses around Arlington, window sills, the bottom of corner boards and fascia are the usual suspects.

We probe the wood during the estimate, mark what needs to come out, and replace it with new stock cut to match the profile. New wood is primed on all sides before it goes up, then painted with the rest of the house.

Because we do the carpentry and the painting, you do not have to schedule two contractors or wait for one to finish before the other can start.

What is included

  • Window sills, casings and drip caps
  • Corner boards, rake boards and fascia
  • Clapboard and shingle replacement
  • Porch trim, columns and railings
  • All new wood primed before installation
  • Painted together with the rest of the house

One crew for the carpentry and the paint. No waiting between contractors.

Carpentry Repairs: common questions

Carpentry repairs are usually done together with painting, since new wood needs to be painted anyway. Ask us about your project and we will tell you what makes sense.
We probe trim and sills during the estimate. Soft spots are marked and listed in the price.
We match the profile as closely as standard stock allows and tell you upfront if something needs a custom piece.
