“We needed new kitchen cabinets installed and Akron Carpentry knocked it out in two days. The crew was efficient and left the kitchen spotless, no sawdust anywhere. Really impressed with how they handled the tight space and got everything level and flush.”
Cabinet & Vanity Installation
“Had them build custom shelving around our fireplace. The attention to detail was incredible, they matched the existing trim perfectly and the shelves are rock solid. My wife said it looks like it was part of the original house.”
Custom Built-Ins & Shelving
“Our back deck was rotting in a few spots and we were nervous about the cost. Turns out they only needed to replace two sections of the substructure and reinforce the joists. Much cheaper than we expected and it feels brand new now.”
Deck & Porch Repair
“Got a beautiful new wood entry door installed last month. The fit is perfect, no drafts, and they sealed everything properly. The whole job took less than a day and they cleaned up after themselves.”
Exterior & Entry Door Installation
“One of our interior doors was sticking pretty bad so we called them out. They adjusted the frame and rehung the door, now it closes smooth as butter. It's a small job but they treated it like it mattered, which I appreciated.”
Interior Door Installation & Repair
“Our old staircase had some loose treads and the railing was wobbly. They reinforced everything underneath and tightened it all up. My kids can now run up and down without me holding my breath. Safe and solid.”
Stair & Railing Repair
“Installed a sliding closet door for us and it works perfectly. The track is smooth, the panels slide without catching, and they got it done in an afternoon.”
Interior Door Installation & Repair
“Our fascia and soffit were in rough shape, some water damage, some rot starting to show. They replaced the damaged sections and everything looks fresh and clean again. They explained what was wrong without trying to upsell us on extra work we didn't need.”

| Service | Starting from | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | In Akron, wood rot is mostly a snow problem that shows up at the roof edge, the porch and the sill. Lake-effect snow, ice dams and spring melt keep fascia, sills and the lowest clapboards wet for months, and freeze-thaw cycles pry each soft spot wider. We cut rot back to sound wood, treat what remains and rebuild in rot-resistant lumber. |
| Termite Damage Repair | From $1,200 | Around Akron the usual wood pest is the carpenter ant, nesting in damp framing near ice-dammed eaves. Eastern subterranean termites also turn up in some older homes. We open the wall, replace hollowed studs, sills and subfloor with new lumber, then fix the moisture that invited them. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Soft, bouncy or sloping floors in older Akron houses usually trace back to the basement beneath them. Old leaks, carpenter ants and century-old joists sized for a different kitchen all play a part. We replace or reinforce failing joists, rebuild soft subfloor and bring the floor back to level before finishes go down. |
| Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal | From $3,500 | Opening a Highland Square kitchen or curing a sagging beam in a Chapel Hill split-level is structural work. We install engineered beams, replace undersized headers and remove load-bearing walls, always to the engineer's drawings and the permit process that applies at your address. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing around Akron runs from Green basements to North Hill attic rooms and Stow garages. Heavy snow and old leaks add damaged rafters and wall framing to rebuild. We frame new walls, repair water or snow damaged members and keep every opening plumb and square. |
| Finish & Trim Carpentry | From $550 | Clean miters, scribed returns and steady reveals mark a finish carpenter, not a handyman. We install casing, paneling, wainscoting and custom trim in West Hill Victorians and Fairlawn Heights estates as well as newer Hudson colonials, and we work lead-safe on painted trim from before 1978. |
| Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation | From $450 | Crown, baseboard and window trim with coped joints that stay closed through humid Ohio summers. We match the period profiles of Akron's Queen Anne, Tudor and Arts and Crafts homes, or keep the lines simple in newer subdivisions. |
| Custom Built-Ins & Shelving | From $1,900 | Bookcases, window seats, media walls and Murphy beds built to the exact size of your rooms. We restore original built-ins in Goodyear Heights and Firestone Park cottages and add storage to Cuyahoga Falls ranches, fitting them around bay windows, sloped attic ceilings and odd alcoves. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Interior doors that swell shut in July and rattle loose in January are common in old Akron homes. Settling frames and old wood both play a part. We plane and rehang sticking doors, true up jambs, and install new prehung, pocket and barn doors. |
| Exterior & Entry Door Installation | From $850 | Entry, back and French doors fitted to keep out drifting lake-effect snow and below-zero wind. Ice melt rotting thresholds and the bottom of door frames is a common Akron repair. We rebuild rotted frames and sills or replace the whole unit, sealed and trimmed. |
| Cabinet & Vanity Installation | From $1,100 | Kitchen and bath cabinets set level even where an old Akron floor has settled out of true. We scribe runs to wavy plaster walls in Kenmore and Ellet houses, fit vanities into small older baths and line up every door and drawer front before we leave. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Creaking treads and wobbly newel posts show up in West Hill Victorians and Goodyear Heights cottages. We tighten and rebuild staircases, repair worn stringers, restore period railings and add handrails that meet current code. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Northeast Ohio winters are hard on outdoor wood, from snow on the boards to frost heave under porches. We replace damaged boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and framing, and tell you plainly when a repair makes more sense than a rebuild. |
| Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair | From $700 | Ice dams push snowmelt behind gutters and into the roof edge long before rot is visible from the yard. We replace soft fascia and soffit runs with weather-resistant material, restore attic venting and leave the eaves primed and painted. |
