"Jim did his best to solve our problem, but through NO fault of his own we had to stop because of technical complications. If and when we proceed I would call Jim Meinen again!"

"I contacted Kristi Minser after seeing her website and reading the reviews here.  After about 60 minutes on the phone one evening, I was completely comfortable.  It was just a "click!"  
Kristi designed a 24 x 28 "shed" only 20 feet from the existing garage.  We live in a 3 story Georgian home so having something that looked like a pole barn was the furthest thing from my mind.  What we got was a very serviceable building for my husband's stuff with an upstairs for storage and future usage.  Kristi managed to work it so the single garage door is accessible from the existing driveway with only a short concrete pad.  The floor is concrete. It is 2x4 construction with ample lighting. The yellow siding with white trim matches the stucco of our home.
So that was my husband's part of the project and he is happy.  He's got big plans for retirement in that "shed." But let's see what I got!
From the garage door on the"shed", we turn right through an aluminum gate on the decorative aluminum fence.  This takes us onto the "piazza" - a 20' x 20' expanse of concrete stamped and colored with a pattern reminiscent of Paris streets. The side bordering the garage has an 18" open space and clematis vines clamber up the wall.  A winding path leads to the kitchen door past the rose bushes edged with lavender.  Directly across is a 28'x10' porch.  There's white wicker on one end, room for a table in the middle and another seating area on the other end.   The roof is supported by round pillars. We'd planned on railings but eliminated them as we wanted every square inch we could use.
We entertain endlessly on our piazza and porch.  The cool thing is the "front" of the shed with its balanced facade and double doors, faces the yard.  This makes it appear far more like a "summer kitchen" from the 1700s than a modern building.  It complements the house perfectly.
We say the shed is from Mars and the porch is from Venus.  The design is all Kristi Minser.
All that being said, every single subcontractor was easy to work with and willing to be "creative" if necessary.  The few small problems were addressed easily with a text to Kristi.  It's obvious that she trusts these people and with good reason.
PS  Little tiny misleading thing: Kristi did not do the roses and lavender or clematis.  Everything else is true!"

FAQs for carpentry projects in Mequon, 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.
