“Fort Lauderdale Carpentry transformed our living room with floor-to-ceiling built-in shelving that looks like it was part of the original house. The team spent three days on the install and the fit and finish are flawless, everything is perfectly level and the trim work blends seamlessly with our baseboards. We couldn't be happier with how clean they left the space.”
Custom Built-Ins & Shelving
“Had them install new interior doors with custom wood frames and trim throughout the upstairs. The craftsmanship on the door casings is exceptional, straight lines, tight joints, and a professional finish that makes our hallway look brand new. They were done in two days and the cleanup was thorough.”
Interior Door Installation & Repair
“We had some soft spots in our kitchen floor from old water damage, and Fort Lauderdale Carpentry cut out the damaged subfloor and joists, then replaced them with new pressure-treated lumber. The floor is solid again and they sealed everything properly before the new flooring went in. Really professional job.”
Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair
“Our fascia and soffit were rotting on the back of the house and looked terrible. These guys replaced the whole thing with new cedar trim and it looks incredible. The attention to detail around the corners and where it meets the gutters shows they really know what they're doing. Only minor note is they could've communicated the timeline a bit better, but the end result is worth it.”
Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair
“Replaced our front entry door with a beautiful solid wood door and custom frame. They took their time getting the threshold and weatherstripping perfect, and the door swings smooth as butter. The craftsmanship on the exterior trim around the door frame is top-notch.”
Exterior & Entry Door Installation
“They installed crown molding and new baseboards throughout our entire first floor, about 1,200 linear feet total. The crown is perfectly mitered at every corner, the baseboards are crisp and straight, and they even stained and sealed everything to match our existing trim. It took them five days and completely elevated the look of our home.”

| Service | Starting from | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | Fort Lauderdale's year-round humidity, summer downpours and salt air off the Atlantic make wood rot a real threat to the city's frame cottages, Mediterranean-revival homes and mid-century ranches. We cut out decayed framing, siding and trim, treat surrounding wood, and rebuild with rot-resistant lumber, a permanent repair, not a cosmetic patch. |
| Termite Damage Repair | From $1,200 | South Florida's warm, wet climate keeps termite pressure high all year, drywood colonies in attics and trim, and Formosan and Asian subterranean termites moving up from the ground. After the tenting or treatment, the damaged wood stays, we replace termite-eaten studs, plates, trim and subfloor sections, working from your pest inspection report and restoring full structural integrity. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Soft, bouncy or sloping wood floors in Fort Lauderdale's older raised cottages and second stories usually trace to termite-damaged joists or subfloor, or to plumbing leaks and storm water that soaked the framing. 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 to the permits your project requires in Fort Lauderdale or Broward County. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing done right: new interior walls, garage and in-law suite build-outs, wall openings, and repairs to storm- or termite-damaged framing. Straight, plumb and solid, the bones your finish work deserves. |
| 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 Fort Lauderdale homes, old and new. |
| Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation | From $450 | Crown molding, baseboards, chair rail and window trim installed with the coped joints and clean caulk lines that Fort Lauderdale's Rio Vista and Colee Hammock homes demand, matched to existing period profiles or kept crisp and modern. |
| Custom Built-Ins & Shelving | From $1,900 | Built-in bookshelves, window seats, media walls, closet systems and Murphy beds designed for Fort Lauderdale's bungalows, mid-century ranches and waterfront homes, custom-fitted to bay windows, vaulted ceilings and every awkward alcove. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Doors that stick, swing open on their own, or never latched right, often the first sign of humidity swelling or termite damage inside the jamb in Fort Lauderdale homes. 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 against South Florida heat, salt air and hurricane-season wind-driven rain, properly flashed, sealed and secured. We repair rotted or termite-damaged door frames and thresholds or replace the full unit. |
| Cabinet & Vanity Installation | From $1,100 | Precise installation of kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities and laundry storage, leveled on Fort Lauderdale's often out-of-level older slabs and terrazzo floors, scribed to out-of-square walls, with hardware aligned and doors adjusted. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads, loose banisters, worn stringers: we repair and rebuild the staircases Fort Lauderdale's two-story homes and townhouses climb every day, restore period railings, and install sturdy handrails and attic ladders. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Humidity, termites, salt air and hurricane winds are hard on Fort Lauderdale decks, docks-side landings and screened porches. We replace rotted or termite-damaged boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and structural framing, and get outdoor spaces safe and solid, repair-first, honest about when replacement wins. |
| Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair | From $700 | Peeling paint and soft fascia boards are the first sign of rot or termite entry moving in. We replace fascia, soffits and exterior trim with primed, rot-resistant material, closing the gaps that let moisture and pests into the roofline. |
