Basement Finishing Carpentry for Lake Bluff, Illinois homes

Basements are framed differently than the rest of the house. Everything sits on concrete, nothing is square, and the ceiling is full of things that can't move.

Lake Bluff is a small village of mostly older housing stock, which usually means plaster walls and openings that were never quite square. Whichever it turns out to be, the carpenter who prices your Lake Bluff job is the one who shows up to do it.

We handle the carpentry side of a basement: partition framing, soffits, door installation, stair trim, baseboard and casing, and any built-ins or storage under the stairs.
