“We wanted to open up our living room by removing a wall, and honestly I was nervous about the structural side of things. The crew from Lexington Carpentry came in, assessed everything carefully, and installed a beautiful beam that's both functional and looks great. They finished in about a week and left the place spotless. Best decision we made on this renovation.”
Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal
“Had them install crown molding and white trim around our new entry door frame, the detail work is incredible. Every corner is tight, the finish is flawless, and it completely transformed the entryway. They even cleaned up all the dust before they left, which I really appreciated.”
Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation
“Our kitchen floor was starting to feel spongy in spots, and we were worried it might be serious damage. Lexington Carpentry came out, replaced the damaged joists and subfloor in about three days, and now it's solid as a rock. The new wood blends seamlessly with the existing floor, you'd never know work was done there.”
Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair
“Our front porch had some rotted boards and the railings were getting wobbly. These guys replaced the damaged deck boards and reinforced the railings so everything is safe and sturdy again. The work was done in two days, and they matched the existing wood stain perfectly, looks like it was never damaged.”
Deck & Porch Repair
“We had three interior doors that needed replacing, and the team hung them all with precision. The doors close smoothly, the frames are perfectly aligned, and the whole job was done faster than I expected. Really professional crew.”
Interior Door Installation & Repair
“Got a new entry door installed in our brick home and was a little concerned about how it would look against the red brick. They did an excellent job with the installation and trim work, the door frame fits perfectly and the exterior trim looks custom-built. Only minor thing is the caulking could've been slightly cleaner, but overall I'm satisfied with the work.”

| Service | Starting from | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | Lexington's humid summers, wet springs and winter freeze-thaw cycles make wood rot a real threat to the city's Victorian porches and Craftsman bungalows. 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 | Kentucky's humid summers and damp crawlspaces keep subterranean termite pressure steady across Lexington's older homes. After the exterminator leaves, the damaged wood stays, we replace termite-eaten studs, sills, trim and subfloor sections across Lexington homes, working from your pest inspection report and restoring full structural integrity. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Sagging, bouncy or soft floors in Lexington's older homes usually trace to termite-damaged joists or subfloor, or to moisture rising from damp crawlspaces and fieldstone basements over Bluegrass limestone. 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 the building permit requirements that apply at your address. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing done right: new interior walls, garage and ADU build-outs, wall openings, and repairs to storm- or termite-damaged framing. Straight, plumb and square, 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 Lexington 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 Lexington's Ashland Park and Chevy Chase 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 Lexington's Craftsman bungalows and Colonial Revival homes, custom-fitted to bay windows, sloped attic 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 settling or termite damage inside the jamb in Lexington 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 Kentucky's humid summers, freeze-thaw winters and sudden spring storms, properly flashed, insulated 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 Lexington's often out-of-level older floors, scribed to out-of-square plaster walls, with hardware aligned and doors adjusted. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads, loose banisters, worn stringers: we repair and rebuild the staircases Lexington's Victorian and foursquare homes climb every day, restore period railings, and install sturdy handrails and attic ladders. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Humidity, termites and winter freeze-thaw are hard on Lexington decks and the deep wooden porches of its older homes. 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. |
