"Top Bros completely gutted and remodeled the two outdated bathrooms in our condo. The building is over 100 years old, so there were some challenges with plumbing, framing, and leveling, but Top Bros didn't shy away from any of them. They tackled each challenge head on and transformed our bathrooms, ensuring that everything was done correctly. They were friendly, easy to work with and the final products turned out amazing. I would highly recommend working with them."

"Mr Bilder did extensive repairs on an older deck for us. I was impressed with him from the time he arrived (on time) to do the estimate. He was the only builder who showed up in person to do the estimate. With me observing as he measured, he explained why each portion of the deck needed to be replaced. Once the project started, he was always on time with the support that he needed. His craftsmanship is the best I've seen in many years and his prices are extremely reasonable. When I have any kind of future building project, this is my first call. You will not regret hiring him!!"

"I hired Mike to build a bathroom in my basement. I was impressed with Mike's professionalism, we spoke daily and he kept me abreast of what was going and next steps with the project. Mike, his crew, and subcontractors were all highly skilled and they did an amazing job on my new bathroom. I plan to use Mike for future projects and I would highly recommend him."

"I had 4 custom-made window panels with condensation and fog. My intention was to only replace the glass (not the frame). I finally came across Apex when I saw their business truck parked in my neighborhood, Little Italy. Their sales rep gave me an in-person estimate within the week. His demeanor was very polite and mindful upon entering my property. Custom-made windows take time to manufacture so I had to wait roughly 2-3 weeks for the installation (tip: this timeframe is way quicker than what four other competitors were able to offer). When the installation team arrived, they, too, were very polite upon entering my home. They handled the removal of each glass with exceptional care. My home was built in the 70â s, and with some major home projects, there may be a hurdle. In my case, one part of my ceiling aged with time and sank about half an inch, preventing easy removal of the window pane. A jack was used for minimal roof elevation. In no time, the old window pane was ejected, leaving no damage. This is an example of their exemplary problem-solving skills. Upon installation of all windows, each was caulked, leaving no gaps. My window panels look exceptional and do a better job with insulation. The price was far reasonable compared to competitors. Their time in my home took about 3-4 hours. The installation team leader was extremely efficient, keeping me apprised of the process."

FAQs for carpentry projects in Racine, 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.
