Carpentry & Woodwork Services
The woodwork a home actually needs — repaired, built, and finished by one local team.
Wood Rot Repair
Deteriorated exterior trim, fascia, window and door wood, and porch components repaired or replaced. If we find structural deterioration or an active moisture source, we’ll tell you — some rot needs more than a cosmetic fix.
Trim & Molding
Baseboards, crown molding, door and window casing, chair rail, and similar finish carpentry.
Custom Shelving & Storage
Floating shelves, closet and pantry shelving, garage storage, and built-ins where they make sense. Fastening method depends on the wall construction, the product, and the load it will carry.
Door Carpentry
Adjustment, damaged-wood repair, casing, hinges and hardware, and door installation where appropriate — see door & window repair for the full service.
Cabinet Repair
Hinges, doors, drawers, hardware, and alignment — repairs, not custom cabinet manufacturing.
Wainscoting & Accent Woodwork
Wainscoting, shiplap, beadboard, board-and-batten, and similar decorative installations.
Wood Rot Repair in Pensacola
Exterior wood on the Gulf Coast fights moisture year-round, and rot around fascia, window sills, door frames, and porch posts is one of the most common repairs we’re called for. The process is straightforward but has to be honest: we inspect the damaged area, work out how far the deterioration actually extends — it’s often wider than the soft spot you can see — and check whether a moisture source needs attention first, because replacing wood under an active leak just schedules the next repair.
From there, damaged material is removed or repaired as appropriate and suitable replacement material goes in. Material selection depends on the location, the existing construction, and the agreed scope — and the repaired area is prepared and finished as included in that scope.
Building a new outdoor structure instead of repairing an old one? That work runs through our gazebo & pergola assembly and shed installation services.

Finish Carpentry & Trim
Baseboards, crown molding, casing, chair rail, wainscoting, shiplap — the trim work that frames a room. Good finish carpentry comes down to careful measuring, clean miters, and joints that are filled and caulked properly before paint; it’s detail work, and it’s most of what we do indoors. Whether it’s replacing baseboards in one room or casing out a whole floor, send the footage and a photo and we’ll quote it.
Custom Shelving & Storage
Floating shelves in the living room, closet and pantry systems, garage storage, and built-ins where the space calls for them. We’re a handyman carpentry service, not a millwork shop — which is exactly right for most of these projects: measured to your space, built from sensible materials, and installed with a fastening method that fits the wall construction and the load it needs to carry. Feasibility and approach depend on dimensions, materials, and what the shelf will hold — books and canned goods make different demands than a picture frame.
Carpentry Repair + Painting
Most carpentry ends with a paintbrush. When it’s part of the project scope, we handle the filling, caulking, priming, and painting ourselves — so a rot repair or new trim run doesn’t sit bare waiting for a second contractor. For bigger finish work, our painting services cover interiors, exteriors, and cabinets.

Carpentry FAQ
-
What carpentry services does Handychief provide?
Wood rot repair, trim and molding, custom shelving and storage, door carpentry, cabinet repair, and decorative woodwork like wainscoting and shiplap — plus the finishing that goes with it.
-
Do you handle small carpentry jobs?
Yes — small jobs are the heart of what we do. One squeaky door, one run of baseboard, or one rotted fascia board are all worth a text.
-
Can you repair rotted exterior wood?
Yes. We inspect how far the rot extends, check whether a moisture source needs attention first, then remove and replace the damaged material with something suitable for the location.
-
Can you install baseboards and crown molding?
Yes — baseboards, crown, casing, chair rail, and other finish trim, installed and prepped for paint.
-
Can you build or install custom shelving?
Yes — floating shelves, closet and pantry systems, garage storage, and appropriate built-ins. The approach depends on your wall construction and what the shelves need to hold.
-
Can you repair cabinets and drawers?
Yes — hinges, doors, drawer slides, hardware, and alignment. We repair cabinets; we don’t manufacture custom ones.
-
Can you repair or adjust doors?
Yes — sticking, sagging, and damaged doors, plus casing, hinges, and hardware. Our door and window repair page covers the details.
-
Can you paint or finish the repaired wood afterward?
Yes, when it’s included in the project scope — filling, caulking, priming, and painting, so the repair disappears into the room instead of announcing itself.
