| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | Kennewick's dry air doesn't rot much wood on its own, lawn sprinklers do. Overspray soaks siding bottoms; trim and sill plates every summer; and freeze-thaw finishes the job. We cut out rotted wood; treat what's left and rebuild with rot-resistant lumber, a permanent repair; not a cosmetic patch. |
| Termite Damage Repair | From $1,200 | In the Tri-Cities the main wood pest is the carpenter ant. Subterranean termites turn up now and then near irrigated lawns and river bottoms. We replace damaged studs; sills and subfloor and close up the moisture and entry points that drew them in. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Sagging; bouncy or soft floors in older Kennewick and Richland homes usually start in the crawl space. The cause is often damaged joists or subfloor from a slow plumbing leak; poor crawl-space venting or silty soil settling under the piers. We sister or replace compromised joists and rebuild subfloor sections; leveling floors before finishes go back down. |
| Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal | From $3,500 | Open-concept conversions and failing beams call for real structural carpentry. We install engineered beams; replace sagging headers and remove load-bearing walls, always built to the engineer's specs and City of Kennewick or Benton County permit requirements. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing done right; from new interior walls to garage and shop build-outs. We open walls; repair wind- or water-damaged framing; and keep it plumb and code-compliant. |
| Finish & Trim Carpentry | From $550 | The details that separate a real finish carpenter from a handyman: tight miters; scribed fits; consistent reveals. Casing; paneling; wainscoting and custom trim work throughout Tri-Cities homes; from Richland's Hanford-era alphabet houses to newer Southridge and Badger Mountain South builds. |
| Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation | From $450 | Crown molding; baseboards; chair rail and window trim; installed with clean; properly coped joints. Matched to the simple period profiles of older Kennewick and Richland homes; or kept crisp and modern in newer subdivisions. |
| Custom Built-Ins & Shelving | From $1,900 | Built-in bookshelves; window seats; media walls and Murphy beds; custom-fitted to your home. Perfect for Richland's compact alphabet houses and Kennewick's ranch homes alike; fitted to small rooms; bay windows and awkward alcoves. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Doors that stick; swing open on their own or never latch right are common in Tri-Cities homes. Houses settle on silty soils that shift when irrigation soaks them. 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 installed weather-tight. They have to hold out wind-driven dust; 100-degree summer sun and sharp winter cold. We repair sun-cracked frames and thresholds or replace the full unit. |
| Cabinet & Vanity Installation | From $1,100 | Precise cabinet and vanity installation; leveled on settled floors in older Kennewick; Pasco and Richland homes. Scribed to out-of-square walls; hardware aligned. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads; loose banisters; worn stringers, we repair staircases in homes old and new. That includes Kennewick's older split-levels as much as newer two-story builds. We restore original railings and install code-compliant handrails. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Tri-Cities sun; wind and lawn-sprinkler spray are hard on decks and porches. Boards cup and split; and posts rot where irrigation keeps them wet. We replace damaged boards; posts and railings; repair stairs and structural framing; and get outdoor spaces safe and solid. We repair first and say honestly when replacement wins. |
| Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair | From $700 | Sun-bleached; cracking paint and wind-driven grit mean rot or splitting has already started underneath. We replace fascia and soffits with weather-resistant material. |
What Affects the Price
- Scope of Damage or Project Size : Small repairs like interior door installation cost less than major structural work like beam replacement or load-bearing wall removal. The more extensive the carpentry needed, the higher the investment.
- Material Quality and Selection : The type of wood, hardware, and finishing materials you choose directly impact the final price. Premium materials and custom options cost more than standard alternatives.
- Accessibility and Site Conditions : Projects in tight spaces, attics, or crawl spaces require extra time and care. Poor access or challenging site conditions may increase labor costs.
- Structural Complexity : Simple trim installation differs greatly from structural repairs requiring permits and engineering. Load-bearing work and complex framing demand more expertise and time.
