Carpentry Services in Portsmouth, NH

Masterful Woodwork for Your New England Home

In Portsmouth, your home is likely filled with character, whether it's a centuries-old colonial in the South End or a modern build near Market Square. Maintaining and upgrading that woodwork requires more than just a saw and a hammer; it demands a respect for architectural integrity and a deep understanding of how coastal weather affects timber. Warped doors, creaky stairs, or outdated cabinets don't just look bad; they diminish the soul of your home.

At House Doctors of Seacoast, we provide professional carpentry services that honor your home's history while upgrading its functionality. We are your all-in-one solution for custom woodworking and structural repairs. From designing built-ins that maximize quirky spaces to restoring rot-damaged trim, our team manages the entire project with precision, ensuring the result feels like it has always been there.

• Vetted Artisans: You are inviting us into your personal space. Every member of our team is a licensed, insured, and background-checked technician. We treat your home with the reverence it deserves.

We understand local building codes and work with you to select materials and designs that respect neighborhood aesthetics while delivering modern performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you match the trim in my historic home?

Yes. We specialize in matching profiles and finishes. We can source or mill trim to replicate your home's original woodwork, ensuring a seamless repair or addition.

Do I need a permit for interior carpentry?

Minor repairs usually don't require one. However, structural changes or major renovations often do. We handle the permitting process with the City of Portsmouth to ensure your project is fully compliant.

How long does a custom project take?

It depends on the scope. A simple repair might take a day, while custom-built-ins could take a week or more. We provide a realistic timeline during our initial consultation.

Do you handle painting and staining?

Absolutely. As part of our full-service approach, we can finish any carpentry project with professional painting or staining, saving you the hassle of hiring another contractor.
