Home additions and carpentry in Glenwood Springs

Carpentry is the work Max is proudest of — from framing and sheathing a two-story addition to built-in bookshelves, stairs and trim.

An addition starts with framing: walls that are straight and square, sheathing sealed against the weather, and openings exactly where the windows and doors need to go. On the two-story addition in these photos the walls went up in ZIP System panels, which become the weather barrier once the seams are taped. We frame and sheathe additions ourselves, then take the same job through drywall, trim and flooring.

Inside, finish carpentry is where a room gets its character: floor-to-ceiling bookshelves around a fireplace, a built-in bookcase and cabinet surround, new stairs and railings, and trim that meets the walls cleanly.

Questions

Common questions

Do you handle the permits for an addition?

Yes. Max pulls the permits, and an addition almost always needs them. Structural work is engineered where the building department requires it.

Can you take an addition from framing to finish?

Yes. We frame, sheathe, drywall, trim, tile and floor it ourselves.

Do you build custom built-ins?

Yes — bookshelves, bookcase and cabinet surrounds and similar work, built on site to fit the room.

Can you replace an old staircase?

Yes. We have rebuilt interior and exterior stairs, including the treads, risers, landings and railings.
