| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | Most Spokane wood rot begins with snow, as ice dams and spring melt soak the lowest wood. Fascia, sills, porch decks and bottom siding stay wet for weeks, and each freeze-thaw cycle then pries the damage wider. We cut out the rot, treat the sound wood that remains and rebuild with rot-resistant lumber, a lasting repair rather than a cosmetic patch. |
| Termite Damage Repair | From $1,200 | Around Spokane the wood pest we meet most is the carpenter ant, far more often than termites. Colonies settle in damp framing under leaky roofs, ice-dammed eaves and tired porches. We replace ant-damaged studs, sills and subfloor, then fix the moisture problem that drew the colony in. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Sagging or soft floors in older Spokane homes usually trace back to joists or subfloor over a damp basement. A slow leak, carpenter ants or a 1910s joist sized for a smaller kitchen are the usual causes. We sister or replace weak joists and rebuild subfloor sections, leveling floors before finishes go back down. |
| Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal | From $3,500 | Opening a South Hill foursquare or fixing a sagging beam in a Valley ranch calls for real structural carpentry. We install engineered beams, replace undersized headers and remove load-bearing walls, built to the engineer's specs and the permit that applies at your address. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Spokane remodel framing covers basement finishes, attic rooms, garage build-outs and walls opened after a hard winter. We frame new interior walls, repair framing hurt by snow load, windstorm or water and keep every wall plumb, square and ready for the trades that follow. |
| Finish & Trim Carpentry | From $550 | Tight miters, scribed fits and even reveals set a finish carpenter apart from a handyman. We install casing, paneling, wainscoting and custom trim across Spokane, from South Hill Craftsman bungalows and Browne's Addition mansions to newer builds in Liberty Lake. |
| Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation | From $450 | Crown molding, baseboard, chair rail and window trim installed with clean, properly coped joints. We match period profiles in Spokane's Craftsman, Queen Anne and Tudor homes, or keep the lines crisp and modern in newer Five Mile and Indian Trail subdivisions. |
| Custom Built-Ins & Shelving | From $1,900 | Bookshelves, window seats, media walls and Murphy beds built for the rooms you actually have. We restore original built-ins in Spokane's Craftsman bungalows or add storage to mid-century ranch homes, scribed to bay windows, sloped attic ceilings and awkward alcoves. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Doors that stick, swing open on their own or never latched right are common as century-old Spokane houses settle. Dry summers and heated winters move old wood doors on top of that. 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 that seal tight against sub-zero cold, driving snow and hot, dry summers. We repair rotted frames and thresholds where the door is still sound, or replace the full unit with proper flashing at the head and sill. |
| Cabinet & Vanity Installation | From $1,100 | Cabinets and vanities set level on the settled floors of older Spokane homes. We scribe them to out-of-square plaster walls, shim them true and line up doors and hardware so every reveal matches, in kitchens and baths old and new. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads, loose banisters and worn stringers repaired on staircases old and new. That includes the grand flights of Browne's Addition and South Hill houses as much as newer builds. We restore period railings and set handrails that are solid and comfortable to grip. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Spokane winters are hard on decks and porches, with snow sitting on the boards and ice-melt soaking the posts. Frost heave then racks the steps out of line. We replace damaged boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and framing and tell you honestly when replacement makes more sense. |
| Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair | From $700 | Ice dams and snowmelt mean rot has usually started behind the gutters and under the roof edge before you notice it. We replace fascia and soffits with weather-resistant material, clear blocked attic venting and seal the trim so meltwater runs off instead of in. |
What Affects the Price
- Extent of Damage or Project Scope : Larger areas requiring repair, replacement, or custom work naturally cost more. A small wood rot spot differs significantly from replacing multiple floor joists or removing a load-bearing wall.
- Material Quality and Selection : The type of wood, hardware, and finishing materials you choose impacts the final price. Premium materials and custom finishes cost more than standard options.
- Accessibility and Site Conditions : Hard-to-reach areas, tight crawl spaces, or structural complications require extra time and care, which affects labor costs.
- Structural Complexity : Projects involving load-bearing elements, permits, or engineering assessments take longer and may require additional expertise, increasing overall cost.

Pricing FAQ
Why do carpentry prices vary so much between different projects?
