Hi every body, this is Oscar and I know the quality of work I can do for you. I have maintenance experience from different companies. My work is about painting, some flooring, drywall repairs, appliances troubleshooting, gutters and roof cleaning, downspout, dryer vent cleaning and general cleaning services at home. Anything I can help let me know. I speak English, Spanish, and Italian if it’s needed.

"Top marks all the way around for Oscar. Oscar is the best handyman we’ve ever employed. He was everything you want in someone working on your home: excellent communication, reasonable cost, high quality work, prompt, dependable, friendly, neat, cleans up after each day of work, very detail-oriented, and just a really nice guy. He re-screened our 3-season porch, replaced all the exterior wood facings on the porch, hung a new and much improved door on same porch, replaced about 12 feet of cedar privacy fence, and power washed the full exterior of our house. There is no question that we will call Oscar again when we need work done. If you’re looking for a talented handyman, look no further; just call Oscar. "

"Estimate was a bit low and should have given more time line for things we cannot control like inspections other than that they did a most excellent job with building a deck with footings! Their craftsmanship was outstanding!"

"Multiple exterior repairs including: enhance the structure of a 2nd story porch, repair wood rot in several locations, storm door replacement, fence and post replacement and painting. Adam treats your house as if it's his own - he discovered additional wood rot and mouse entry points on the siding and re-fastened framing on the front door so it now operates like new. My house is now mouse free for the first time since it was purchased 28 years ago. Adam comes up with great solutions that I've never considered. There's no need to check his work with a level - it's always right on. He always does things the right way and gives you options to suit your budget. I'm a probably a difficult customer since I'm a retired engineer and Adam meets or exceeds all expections."

"I hired JWC to repair my sill plate and associated face boards, an approximate 4x28 foot area sitting under my patio door. To do so, he and his crew had to jack up one side of the house and work in a tight crawl space and outside in nasty weather. Jordan and his crew were very easy to work with and displayed excellent attention to detail. His rates were most reasonable and he did an excellent job of answering my questions and addressing my concerns in a timely manner. I plan to hire him again for other work. "

FAQs for carpentry projects in De Forest, WI

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.
