"We needed to have our basement remodeled, requested a quote, and the owner was onsite in a few days, he was extremely flexible with our busy schedule. He provided us with a quote shortly after in a timely fashion. The work was of high quality, and completed in the estimated time. The overall price was reasonable and the project stayed on budget. Wally and all of his workers were always polite, professional, punctual, and extremely responsive. I would recommend this company to any for any of your home improvement needs. We are extremely satisfied, and look forward to working with Manfredia Carpentry in the future. We love our new basement!!!"

"The work was awesome, they were on time and worked every day. They cleaned up after their day was complete and were extremely easy to work with through the process. Their workmanship is top notch. I will be using them again to build a barn and eventually to build an addition off the back of my house."

"It was nice to find someone who knows what they do and responsible. Frank is professional contractor. His work is quality. He works quick. Reasonable price. Clean and respectful. I had wall frame installed on my 2 stories high ceiling wall, also on the other side of fireplace and in dining room wall. They are so elegant. I was a little nervous on the high ceiling wall. If the measurement is wrong it can look disaster. But Frank did an amazing job. I’m very happy. Definitely will hire him again to do tiles around fireplace and finish the basement. I’m a happy customer. Highly recommend!!"

"A.W. Viohl won the contract, and immediately we realized that our decision was correct. This project not only needed an outstanding contractor – that outfit had to have the access and relationships with an architect, master plumber and master electrician that could pull this job off. It took a few weeks for us to get the necessary building permits, but the architect was relentless – meeting with us on the weekends when necessary and getting all of the specifications the county needed for our plan to be approved. Demolition proceeded with minimal disruption, and concerns, such as dust, were brought up – they were resolved immediately. I started an album set on Facebook for my faith community – documenting each weekly success. At the point that flooring was needed, we further enjoyed access to an outstanding supply shop, and the church’s “aesthetics team” reported the outstanding service experience they enjoyed along with extremely competitive prices for the materials we needed – so much so that the contracted expanded to install new flooring all the way to the main entrance of the church! The A.W. Viohl team includes a master tile craftsman – Brent made the tile floors in the new bathrooms and new kitchen look spectacular! New bathrooms, a performance kitchen with excellent electrical and plumbing support, and adequate ventilation – elements of our new “Mission Hall.” This multipurpose room can comfortably accommodate an aerobics class; it masterfully acts as a polling station for New Castle County; and it can host a formal party or reception for 75 or more guests. Our church now has the facility it needed to carry out some of its mission projects with a hall that we can be proud of, that met our needs, and stayed within our budget due to the outstanding work performed by A.W. Viohl Contracting!!"

"AutLaws Carpentry came out to measure for my crown mouldings and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was prompt, reached out immediately, and met with me the same day. He measured everything carefully and double checked his measurements, which gave me a lot of confidence. He was friendly, professional, and detail-oriented. I am 100% positive I chose the right person for the job."

FAQs for carpentry projects in Media, PA

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.

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.

While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

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.
