Carpentry & Repairs, By The Numbers

You're busy. Here is what actually matters, from our own job records - not marketing copy.

How a repair actually runs

  1. Assessment on site; where demolition is needed to see the damage, we say so before quoting the rebuild.
  2. Scaffolding set up where needed - site-built where front stairs prevent standard staging; plywood decking catches debris.
  3. Remove failed shingles, siding, or flashing; all debris hauled, dump fees included.
  4. Replace with pre-primed material over new building paper - starter course, woven corners, preservative on every cut end.
  5. Rot-fix epoxy on window sills and structural knees where replacement isn't warranted.
  6. Repairs prepped and painted to match your existing scheme - one crew, no second contractor.

What rot does while you decide

Wood rot is compound interest in reverse. A wet sill this winter is wet framing next winter. Of our 788 recorded projects, the expensive ones ($60,000-$119,000) are almost all deferred maintenance - hidden rot found behind siding that had been "fine" for years. A quick inspection visit is the cheapest thing on this page.

What we'll tell you up front

  • Estimates are provisional where demolition is required first - we confirm after opening up.
  • Hidden conditions (rot in structural members, improper framing, insect damage, old construction defects) are priced when found, with your approval before work continues.
  • Special-order material adds 3-4 weeks of lead time after ordering - we quote lead time separately from build time.
  • You provide access; we protect plants within reason - heavy cutting back is yours before we start.

These lines come straight from our written estimates. Contractors who don't say them up front bill you for them later.
