Custom Carpentry & Wood Rot Repair
From elegant interior woodwork to crucial exterior structural repairs. We build it, we repair it, and we paint it—saving you time and hassle.
The Perfect Finish Starts with the Right Foundation
You can’t build a beautiful home on a damaged foundation, and the same goes for your paint job. In Massachusetts and New Hampshire, the shifting seasons take a toll on your home’s exterior, often causing wood rot that compromises both aesthetics and structure. Inside, adding custom trim or built-ins is the secret to transforming a basic room into a luxurious space.
Our skilled carpenters work hand-in-hand with our painters. As we are replacing rotted material, we ensure the woodwork is perfectly integrated and ready for a flawless finish.

How do I know if the wood on my exterior is rotted?
Common signs of wood rot include peeling or bubbling paint, wood that feels soft or spongy when pressed, discoloration, or visible fungal growth. If you notice any of these on your siding, trim, or window sills, contact us for a free inspection before the damage spreads.
Can you match the existing trim in my older New England home?
Yes. We can source or custom-mill trim to match your existing profiles perfectly, preserving the charm and architectural integrity of your home.
Why do you recommend PVC trim for exterior repairs?
For exterior areas highly exposed to moisture, snow, and rain, we often recommend cellular PVC trim (like Azek). It looks and cuts exactly like wood but is 100% impervious to moisture, meaning it will never rot, warp, or attract insects. When painted, it is indistinguishable from real wood.
