| 🪵 Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair |
From $650 |
On the Virginia Peninsula, wood rot is driven by salt air, muggy summers and wind-driven rain off the James. Sills, porch framing and the lowest siding courses stay damp for months, especially over a wet crawl space. We cut out the rot, treat the sound wood that remains and rebuild with rot-resistant lumber, a lasting repair rather than a coat of filler. |
| 🐜 Termite Damage Repair |
From $1,200 |
Hampton Roads is heavy subterranean termite country, and colonies feed on sills and joists in every season. Carpenter bees add their own tunnels in exposed trim and rails. We replace the damaged studs, sills, joists and subfloor, then correct the soil contact and moisture that let the insects reach the wood. |
| 🔩 Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair |
From $1,800 |
When a floor in an older Newport News home starts to sag or bounce, the cause is usually under the house. Joists weakened by termites or rot over a damp crawl space are the common culprits. We sister or replace the failing joists, rebuild soft subfloor sections and bring the floor back to level before the finish goes down. |
| 🏗️ Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal |
From $3,500 |
Opening up a Hidenwood ranch or curing a sagging beam in Riverside takes genuine structural carpentry. We install engineered beams, replace undersized headers and take out load-bearing walls, always to the engineer's drawings and the permit process of the city or county where you live. |
| 📐 Framing & Structural Carpentry |
From $2,500 |
Peninsula remodel framing runs from Denbigh bonus rooms to full garage conversions in Kiln Creek. Storm season adds walls and roof framing to rebuild after a limb or a nor'easter. We frame new walls, repair storm- or termite-damaged members and keep every opening plumb, square and ready for inspection. |
| 🪚 Finish & Trim Carpentry |
From $550 |
Tight miters, scribed returns and even reveals are what separate a finish carpenter from a handyman. We install casing, paneling, wainscoting and custom trim in North End Colonials and Hilton Village cottages as well as newer homes at Port Warwick and City Center, matched to the character of each house. |
| 👑 Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation |
From $450 |
Crown, baseboard, chair rail and window trim fitted with clean coped corners that stay closed through humid summers. We match the period profiles of the Peninsula's Colonial Revival, Tudor and Craftsman houses, or keep the lines simple and sharp in newer subdivisions across Denbigh and York County. |
| 📚 Custom Built-Ins & Shelving |
From $1,900 |
Bookcases, window seats, media walls and Murphy beds built around the way your household actually uses a room. We restore the original built-ins of Hilton Village and North End homes or add storage to brick ranches, scribed to bay windows, sloped ceilings and the odd alcoves older houses are known for. |
| 🚪 Interior Door Installation & Repair |
From $350 |
Peninsula humidity swells old wood doors every summer while older houses keep settling on their piers. The result is a door that sticks, drifts open on its own or never latches. We plane, rehang or replace the slab, rebuild tired jambs and install pocket and barn doors that glide the way they should. |
| 🔐 Exterior & Entry Door Installation |
From $850 |
Entry, back and French doors fitted weather-tight against nor'easter rain, salt air and long humid summers. When the door itself is sound we repair the rotted frame and threshold, and when it is not we replace the complete unit with proper flashing at the head and sill. |
| 🗄️ Cabinet & Vanity Installation |
From $1,100 |
Cabinets and vanities set level on the uneven floors of older Newport News homes and new townhomes alike. We scribe them to out-of-square walls, shim them true and align doors and hardware so every reveal matches, from Warwick kitchens to compact baths in Port Warwick. |
| 🪜 Stair & Railing Repair |
From $600 |
Squeaky treads, loose banisters and tired stringers are repaired on staircases of every age. That includes the century-old stairways of the North End and Huntington Heights as much as two-story homes in Kiln Creek. We restore period railings and install sturdy handrails built to the code that applies at your address. |
| 🌉 Deck & Porch Repair |
From $900 |
Salt air and Peninsula humidity keep deck boards and porch posts damp most of the year. Carpenter bees drill the rails and nor'easters bring down limbs. We replace damaged boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and structural framing, and tell you honestly when a full replacement makes more sense than another repair. |
| 🏠 Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair |
From $700 |
Clogged gutters, salt air and carpenter bees wear out Peninsula fascia and soffits before anyone looks up. Rot usually begins behind the gutter line where nobody sees it. We replace fascia and soffits with weather-resistant material, seal the bee holes and leave the roof edge ready for paint. |
