The work

Handyman Carpentry services across Lake County, IL

Half the calls we get start with someone apologising for how small the job is. Don't. Small jobs are how most of our bigger ones started.

A door that won't latch, a shelf that needs hanging properly, trim pulling off a wall, a squeaky stair tread, a cabinet door hanging crooked. Individually they're an afternoon. Together they're the list that's been on your fridge since spring.

We'd rather come once and work through the whole list than make five trips. Write it all down before we get there, including the things you assume are too minor to mention.

What's included

Handyman Carpentry: what the job covers

Whole punch lists in one visit
Shelves and fixtures anchored into framing
Squeaks, sticking doors and loose trim
Small repairs other trades won't take
Honest advice on what you could do yourself

Common questions

Handyman Carpentry, answered

Do you offer handyman carpentry across Lake County?

Yes. Handyman Carpentry is one of our core services and we cover all of Lake County, from Lake Forest and Highland Park up to Zion and Antioch. Call (224) 944-8652 for a free estimate.

Is there a minimum charge?

There's a minimum visit, because the drive costs the same whether the job takes an hour or five. That's why we'd rather knock out your whole list in one trip. Call and describe what you've got and we'll tell you straight whether it's worth our visit or a Saturday of yours.

How much does it cost?

Every job is priced after we see the actual space, so you get a real number rather than a range. The estimate is free, it's in writing, and the scope is spelled out before any work starts.
