« San Francisco Carpentry completely transformed our living room with floor-to-ceiling built-in shelving and a reading nook. The craftsmanship is incredible, they matched the existing trim perfectly and finished everything in a rich walnut stain. The whole project took just over two weeks and they left the place spotless. »
Custom Built-Ins & Shelving
« We had them install a bay window with integrated bookshelves and it's honestly the best upgrade we've made to this house. The team measured everything twice and the shelves are perfectly level, they even added adjustable brackets so we can reconfigure as needed. »
Custom Built-Ins & Shelving
« Our back deck was falling apart so we called San Francisco Carpentry to rebuild it. They replaced all the rotted joists and boards, reinforced the support structure, and the whole thing feels solid again. It took them about 10 days working with a crew of three, and honestly the work quality is worth every penny. »
Deck & Porch Repair
« The fascia and soffit on the front of our house were rotting pretty bad. These guys came out, assessed everything, and had it all replaced within a day. New trim looks sharp and they explained how proper ventilation would prevent future issues. »
Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair
« We needed crown molding and new baseboards installed throughout our master bedroom and they nailed it. The angles were perfect, the finish was seamless, and they matched the existing trim from the 1970s without any issues. »
Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation
« San Francisco Carpentry helped us add a structural wall to our kitchen for a new island and they knew exactly what they were doing. They framed it out, made sure it was load-bearing compliant, and the whole thing is rock solid. Really impressed with their knowledge of building codes. »
Framing & Structural Carpentry
« Our front entry was old and drafty so we had them install a new solid wood door with proper framing and weatherstripping. The installation was clean, they sealed everything properly, and our heating bill has already gone down. »
Exterior & Entry Door Installation
« The outdoor stairs to our deck were wobbly and unsafe so we called them out. They reinforced the stringers, replaced a few treads, and installed a new railing. Everything is secure now and the new railing looks way better than the old one. »

| Service | Starting from | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | San Francisco's fog belt makes dry rot a fact of life for wood-frame homes. 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 | After the exterminator leaves, the damaged wood stays. We replace termite-eaten studs, sills, trim and subfloor sections across San Francisco 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 older San Francisco homes usually trace to damaged joists or subfloor. 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 city permit requirements. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing done right: new interior walls, garage and basement build-outs, wall openings, and repairs to fire- or water-damaged framing. Straight, plumb and code-compliant, 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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco's period homes demand, matched to existing Victorian 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 San Francisco's compact floor plans, custom-fitted to bay windows, sloped ceilings and every awkward alcove. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Doors that stick, swing open on their own, or never latched right, a San Francisco classic as buildings settle. 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 fog and wind-driven rain, properly flashed, insulated and secured. We repair rotted 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 San Francisco's rarely-level floors, scribed to out-of-square walls, with hardware aligned and doors adjusted. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads, loose banisters, worn stringers: we repair and rebuild the staircases San Francisco homes climb every day, restore period railings, and install code-compliant handrails and attic ladders. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Fog and salt air are hard on decks and porches. We replace rotted 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 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. |
