Carpentry for Every Corner

Fix It People handles the carpentry work that comes up around almost every home: crown and baseboard molding, wainscoting, cabinet adjustments, and exterior repairs like rotted deck boards. Our carpenters have the experience to get it right, whether it’s a quick fix or a bigger job.

Every house is a little different, and older Chicago homes especially. We’ll take a look, walk you through what’s involved, and get it done on time and within budget.

Built to Handle the Unexpected

Carpentry has a way of turning up more than you bargained for. A loose handrail, a mantel that’s pulled away from the wall, a cabinet drawer that’s stopped sliding right. We’ll catch that early and walk you through it before any extra work happens.

Our carpenters are experienced with the quirks of Chicago’s older housing stock, from unique molding profiles to doors that have shifted with the building over the years.
