| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | Fresno's dry heat and sprinkler overspray both invite wood rot on Tower District and Old Fig Garden homes. We cut out decayed framing, siding and trim, treat the surrounding wood, and rebuild with rot-resistant lumber, a permanent repair, not a cosmetic patch. |
| Termite Damage Repair | From $1,200 | Subterranean termites are a fact of life for older San Joaquin Valley homes built with wood close to the soil. After the exterminator leaves, we replace studs, sills, trim and subfloor sections from your pest inspection report, restoring full structural integrity. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Bouncy, sagging or soft floors in Fresno's older raised-foundation homes usually trace back to shifting Valley clay. We sister or replace compromised joists and rebuild subfloor sections, leveling floors before finishes go back down. |
| Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal | From $3,500 | Open-concept remodels and sagging headers call for real structural carpentry, not guesswork. We install engineered beams, replace sagging headers and remove load-bearing walls, always built to the engineer's specs and city permit requirements. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing done right for Fresno additions and garage build-outs. New interior walls, wall openings, and repairs to termite- or settlement-damaged framing across Woodward Park and Bullard homes, straight, plumb and code-compliant. |
| Finish & Trim Carpentry | From $550 | The details that separate a real finish carpenter from a handyman: tight miters, scribed fits, consistent reveals. Casing, paneling, wainscoting and custom trim work throughout Fresno homes, from Tower District bungalows to Woodward Park new-builds. |
| Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation | From $450 | Crown molding, baseboards, chair rail and window trim, installed with tight coped joints and clean caulk lines. Matched to Tower District Craftsman profiles, or kept crisp and modern for Woodward Park and North Growth Area builds. |
| Custom Built-Ins & Shelving | From $1,900 | Built-in bookshelves, window seats, media walls, closet systems and Murphy beds designed for Fresno floor plans. Custom-fitted to bay windows, sloped ceilings and every awkward alcove, from Tower District bungalows to Woodward Park new construction. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Doors that stick, swing open on their own, or never latch right are common as Valley clay soil shifts. We hang, adjust and replace interior doors, repair jambs and frames, and install pocket and barn doors. |
| Exterior & Entry Door Installation | From $850 | Entry, back and French doors installed weather-tight against Fresno's intense summer sun and winter tule fog damp. Properly flashed, insulated and secured, we repair rotted door frames and thresholds or replace the full unit. |
| Cabinet & Vanity Installation | From $1,100 | Precise installation of kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities and laundry storage, leveled on settling floors. Scribed to out-of-square walls, with hardware aligned and doors adjusted before we leave. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads, loose banisters, worn stringers: we repair and rebuild the staircases Fresno homes climb every day. We restore period railings in Tower District Craftsman homes and install code-compliant handrails and attic ladders. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Fresno's triple-digit summers and dry winters take a toll on decks and porches, cracking and warping boards. We replace rotted boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and structural framing, and get outdoor spaces safe and solid, repair-first, honest about when replacement wins. |
| Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair | From $700 | Peeling paint and soft fascia boards are the first sign of sun and irrigation damage on a Fresno roofline. We replace fascia, soffits and exterior trim with primed, rot-resistant material, closing the gaps that let heat and pests into the attic. |

- Accessibility and Site Conditions : Hard-to-reach areas, tight spaces, or homes requiring special equipment or safety measures may increase labor time and costs.
