What types of carpentry services do you offer Southern Maine homeowners?
We offer a wide range of structural and aesthetic carpentry repairs to strengthen homes against New England’s extreme weather shifts. This includes replacing compromised clapboard, shakes, shingles, trim, railings, columns, doors, and internal structural components. We also recreate intricate trim details on older homes.
How do you ensure carpentry repairs withstand Maine’s seasonal changes?
We use weather-resistant woods or engineered products for cold, coastal climates. We also properly seal all repairs to prevent further water infiltration and wood rot as temperatures fluctuate.
Can you match existing architectural details on antique New England homes?
Absolutely! We specialize in recreating the ornate trim and profiles that give antique Capes and Victorians their distinctive heritage charm. We can also custom-build replacements tailored to match later architectural styles.
What types of sealants do you use on coastal homes?
We exclusively use heavy-duty primers and sealants formulated to withstand salt air, dramatic temperature changes, high winds, and heavy moisture. This ensures all surface repairs are fully protected.
How long does an average carpentry repair project take?
Every home is unique, but most projects take 1-3 days, depending on scope. We’ll provide a detailed timeline specific to your needs and keep you updated from start to finish. Our team works efficiently without cutting corners that could compromise durability.
