"My fence was ready to collapse into the neighbor's driveway: age, moisture and wind had done a great job on it. I needed help in a hurry. Other contractors, if they even returned my call, gave me a 2 to 3 month time frame to even look at the site. Matt Rowell, not only answered my call promptly, but came to my house promptly and on time. He inspected the fence and a day later I had my estimate. Not only that, but he actually was able to postpone a previous job and start working four days later. For an entire week, he and his crew were on time regardless of some inclement April weather. The work was completed, as promised, within a week, The fence looks great, solid, straight and long-lasting. My yard was left clean of debris. I recommend Matt absolutely and without reservation for his skill and professionalism. N. Lohmann"

"Incredibly well. Dave takes extreme pride in his workmanship and goes above and beyond. As a small example, he had to remove some drywall anchors for the work, and I was surprised to see he reinstalled even better ones and re-mounted the object for me. I already plan to hire him again for additional work soon."

FAQs for woodworking projects in Chestertown, NY

The average cost to hire a woodworker for a project in your home is around $65 per hour, but hourly rates can range from $35 to $250 or more, depending on the experience and skill of the woodworker. Your total woodworking project cost will depend on the complexity of the work, the type of wood, the number of projects, and any other materials your project requires. You could hire a professional woodworker to create everything from a custom cabinet to ornate, unique staircases.

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

Every woodworker has different skills and experience, so we recommend asking the following questions when hiring a woodworker for your project:

  • How long have you been in the woodworking industry?

  • What experience do you have with my type of project?

  • Do you have customer references I can speak with?

  • How long do you expect my project to take?

  • What is my recourse if I have an issue with your work?

  • Do you charge hourly or per project?

  • Will you work on-site or in your own workshop?

  • Does your fee include the necessary post-job clean-up?

While they perform similar tasks, a carpenter is responsible for the woodworking that goes into construction—like framing, installing sheathing, and hanging kitchen cabinets—while a woodworker tackles more intricate and custom projects—like building custom furniture and installing wainscoting. Based on these definitions, most woodworkers can tackle the jobs of a carpenter, but you should always ask about your specific project when choosing a woodworker to ensure they have the necessary skills to tackle the job.

It may seem simple to install trim, wainscoting, and other finishing wood in your home, but the work is complicated and often frustrating. Getting small trim pieces to line up evenly without gaps and look streamlined in a finished product is a real challenge for DIYers, even if you have the necessary tools. We recommend hiring a professional woodworker for these more intricate projects. They’ll get the job done more quickly, and they’ll have the experience necessary to make everything look neat and clean to add more value to your home.
