Nashville's Handyman connects homeowners across Middle Tennessee with licensed, insured handymen for small carpentry. Estimates are free and written, the price is agreed before work starts, and the workmanship is backed in writing.
What the job usually involves
Every property is different, which is why the estimate comes after somebody has actually looked at it rather than before. What does not change is the process: assess, explain the options in plain language, put the scope and price in writing, then do the work to that scope.

Small Carpentry, in practice
Filler has a place and rotten structural wood is not it. Where a sill, a trim board or a deck board has gone soft, cutting it out and replacing it is the repair; filling it is postponing the repair and hiding it in the meantime.
Trim work is miters and scribes. Walls are not straight and corners are not square, and the difference between trim that looks installed and trim that looks fitted is entirely in how those joints are cut.
