Baseboard and crown molding, custom shelving, door trim, and built-in repairs by a finish carpenter. Serving Elizabeth homeowners and property managers with upfront pricing and same-week availability.
Elizabeth is Union County's largest city and county seat, known for dense, historic neighborhoods of two- and three-family homes, rowhouses, and pre-war multifamily buildings. When it comes to carpentry, that context matters — Elizabeth's housing stock is older and harder-working than most of North Jersey — two- and three-family homes with plaster walls, original trim, aging windows and doors, and a lot of landlords managing tenant repairs from across town. That's exactly our lane: firm prices texted before we're booked, photo proof after every visit, and unit turnovers that pass Elizabeth's certificate inspections the first time.
Finish-grade carpentry done by hand — tight miters, clean returns, ready for paint.
| Job | Price range |
|---|---|
| Baseboard install (per linear ft) | $8 – $15 |
| Crown molding install (per linear ft) | $12 – $22 |
| Custom shelf install | $150 – $400 |
| Stair handrail repair | $200 – $500 |
| Cabinet hardware swap (per cabinet) | $25 – $55 |
