When should I hire a Carpenter?

Hire a carpenter to complete the framing or finishing for a large renovation project. A carpenter's main role is to construct home frames, structures, and aesthetic features out of wood. You may hire a carpenter for woodwork projects such as a deck, or a shed, for example.

How much does a carpentry project cost?

As always, the project price depends on the project scope. Usually, the cost of a carpenter will be covered in your General Contractor's bill. But, if you plan on hiring a carpenter for a project, then you may expect the following:

• Finishing Carpentry (crown moulding, framing, baseboards): $3 - $10/ linear foot

• Deck construction: $15 - $35 /ft2 (prices depend on project complexity and materials used)

• Hourly services: $40 - $65/hr (before materials)

Is this a DIY project?

Savvy DIYers could take on simple carpentry projects. However, woodworking is no easy task. Wood expands and contracts over time, and the lines can become uneven. The pros know how to take this into account. They will incorporate the lifecycle of the wood products into the project plan to give you the best return. If you're not confident that your work can last a long time then hire a pro!

Additional tips

You can also hire a carpenter to design a custom built-in unit for the family room, raise the floor, install hardwood, install custom staircases, or design a tiny home! The possibilities are endless!
