Baseboard and crown molding, custom shelving, door trim, and built-in repairs by a finish carpenter. Serving Montclair homeowners and property managers with upfront pricing and same-week availability.
Montclair is one of New Jersey's most architecturally rich towns, known for Tudor, colonial, and Victorian homes with original plaster, picture rails, and serious finishes. When it comes to carpentry, that context matters — Montclair homes deserve a handyman who respects the architecture — plaster patching that disappears, picture-rail-compatible art hanging, and trim work that matches the original profile. We don't put modern butt joints into a 1910 colonial.
For carpentry specifically, 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 |
