Site visit planning · Occupied homes

Planning carpentry in a home you live in.

From a sticking door to a wall of bookcases, access and everyday routines shape how interior work is scheduled.

Plan for the property

Resolve the site before choosing the finish.

  • 01

    Measure the room and the narrowest doorway along the route in.

  • 02

    Mark the outlets, switches, vents and baseboards the new work will meet.

  • 03

    Tell us when the room needs to be usable and which furnishings can move.

Before you request an estimate

Arranging a site visit.

Send the project ZIP with your request. Availability depends on your address, the work involved and timing.

How do I check availability?

Use the estimate form with your ZIP, primary service and a phone number. The team can then check the location and scope.

Which photos will help?

Measure the room and the narrowest doorway along the route in. Include one wide view of the whole space.

Do I need final drawings?

A sketch or rough dimensions are enough for an initial conversation. If the work involves structural changes, include any prepared plans.

Homeowner questions

Before you bring an idea to the workbench.

Measurements

What should I measure first?

Start with the width, height and depth of the opening. Take a wide photo that includes nearby doors, trim and outlets.

Materials

Can you match existing trim?

A close-up of the profile and a view of the whole room help identify the shape, wood and finish to match.

Estimates

Can I group several repairs?

List them by room and include photos. This helps us plan access and see which jobs use the same materials.
