Maddy O. says, "I highly recommend Pedro and UTZ PNW Construction LLC. I contacted UTZ PNW Construction on Veterans Day regarding a small dry wall repair project after I had to have some plumbing worked on underneath my kitchen sink. Pedro responded within a few minutes and came out within an hour to give me an estimate. He was then able to get me scheduled first thing the next morning (i.e. this morning). He showed up promptly (actually early!) and completed the project in an hour. It was a tricky project due to the location of the repair job (inside a cabinet, underneath the sink, behind a garbage disposal), however, he did a great job covering up the hole. I truly appreciated the speed with which he could get this done and his professionalism and honesty throughout the project. I will definitely reach out to him for future dry wall repair needs."See more

James H. says, "Jorge and Jacier are the very best contractors I have ever worked with. The quality of their work, including their craftsmanship and artistry, exceeded my expectations. From the very beginning, they were ready to go, on time, had excellent skill in communicating, collaborating, and working out every detail to our satsfaction. They are masters of carpentry, painting, demolition, restoration, and repair, and so much more. They accomplished so much so quickly, working around the weather, finding all supplies, in order to remove layers of vinyl and wood siding, repairing walls, windows, replacing doors, stairs, installing hardiplank siding, restoring historic accents, painting, and overall turning my house into something beautiful, something that never seemed doable with other contractors, quickly and at a great price. In addition, they repaired and replaced structural framing in my basement, insulation, and vapor barrier installation. And more, they built an excellent block retaining wall, cedar fence with attractive screening, new exterior stairway entry, and overall reinforced and repaired what existing fencing I had before that it feels amazing to be outside. They are responsive and thoughtful about every request and idea I had, and were able to turn everything into a success. I cannot say enough nice things about these great guys that were so helpful and so professional in their work and attitude, respectful to family and neighbors, and took the time to clean up everyday and check in every morning and at the end of the day. They have added so much value to my home and peace of mind."See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does it cost to have kitchen cabinets installed?

In any kitchen, the cabinets are the main focus, so you want to make sure new or replacement cabinets are installed correctly. A professional carpenter can properly, securely mount new cabinets to the wall; the national average cost for this service is $7,725, although the cost varies widely depending on the type of cabinets, their material and their size, and the accessories you add. A typical fee is $70 per linear foot to remove existing cabinets and assemble and install new ones; the cost is less if you do the demolition and removal yourself. Stock cabinets are the least expensive to have installed, ranging from $75 to $400 each; semi-custom cabinets range from $150 to $900 each; and custom cabinets cost from $500 to $1,400 each. Wood cabinets are more expensive than those made from plywood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and finished with a laminate. Wood cabinets range in cost from $80 to $160 per linear foot. Laminate-finished cabinets cost $35 to $75 per linear foot, on average.

How much is custom cabinetry?

Custom cabinets can be built for any room, including bedroom closets and built-in armoires. Measured carefully and built precisely, custom cabinetry can increase storage and beautify any room. The national average for building custom cabinets ranges from $500 to $1,200 per linear foot. The cost is highly variable because there are so many styles, colors, glazes and other options. In general, the linear footage of the cabinets, the materials used to build them, and the cost of the labor will determine the cost. Solid wood costs more than plywood and wood veneer, and costs vary among different types of wood; maple and cherry cabinets are more expensive than pine. Glass-front cabinets can cost more, as can decorative hinges, handles and door pulls, which can cost $2-$45 each; choose carefully to stay within your budget and pull off the exact look you’re going for. Some carpenters also charge for installation, on average $100 per cabinet box. Additional molding and trim, such as crown molding at the ceiling, cost an average of $70 per 8-foot section, and adding finished ends to exposed cabinets averages $100-$200.

Do you tip cabinet installers?

In general, home service providers such as electricians, plumbers and contractors are professionals who don’t expect tips. They expect to do a job for you for the specific price they quoted. Of course, they may appreciate a tip for a job particularly well done or for which they’ve gone beyond what’s normally expected, such as completing the project early or under budget. Even better than a tip, it’s always appropriate to leave a positive review online after a good experience.

Do carpenters build houses?

Carpenters are trained to work with wood. That means that any part of your home that is built of wood is very likely to involve a carpenter. Framing carpenters will put up the wood that makes up the bones of your home. If you’re having a wood floor installed, it may be done by a carpenter — although being a carpenter is not a requirement to install flooring. Trim, baseboards, wainscoting and any other detail work is typically installed by a finish carpenter. The wood boxes of custom cabinets will be built and installed by a carpenter.

Although all of these components in your new or remodeled home are built by carpenters who specialize in building things with wood, a general contractor typically oversees construction of the entire house. If the general contractor is also a carpenter skilled in all these areas, they may well construct your entire home. More often, the general contractor subcontracts out the various building stages to different individuals, including carpenters.

What does a finish carpenter charge per hour?

On average, finish carpenters charge $60 per hour. However, this hourly rate will vary depending on where you live, the scope of the project and other factors. For a more accurate estimate, ask for price quotes from at least three finish carpenters in your area.

Who is a carpenter and what do they do?

Carpenters are skilled craftsmen who build things out of wood. Depending on what the carpenter builds, they may be referred to by various names. A framer is a carpenter who puts up the framing on a house. A trim or finish carpenter installs the finishing touches of prefabricated or custom trim and detail work once a house has been built and the walls are up. A furniture maker or woodworker builds furniture — such as tables, beds and dressers — out of wood. A cabinetmaker is a carpenter who builds custom and semi-custom wood cabinets. If you’re having a home built or remodeled, your general contractor will either provide or subcontract the carpentry work for the framing, cabinets and trim. You can hire a carpenter directly to update the trim in your home, build you a piece of custom furniture, or repair or replace your wood cabinets.
