Frequently Asked Questions

How long does crown molding installation take?

Most rooms take 1-2 days depending on complexity. Simple rooms with straight walls are faster, while rooms with vaulted ceilings or multiple angles take longer. We work efficiently while maintaining quality.

Can you match existing trim in my home?

Yes! We can match existing trim profiles, wood species, and stain colors. We bring samples to ensure perfect matches before beginning work.

Do you handle permits for deck construction?

Yes, we handle all permit applications for projects that require them. Deck permits are typically required for decks over 30 inches high or attached to the house.

What's the best material for outdoor projects in Florida?

For decks, composite is most popular due to low maintenance. For fences, cedar or pressure-treated pine work well. We recommend materials based on your budget, maintenance preferences, and aesthetic goals.

Can you work around my schedule?

Absolutely. We understand that carpentry projects can be disruptive. We work with your schedule and can often complete work in phases to minimize inconvenience.
