Custom Build Your Capitol Hill Home with Expert Carpentry Services

Capitol Hill homeowners take pride in their neighborhood’s character. Preserving that charm while making spaces more functional, comfortable, and personal remains a shared goal among many homeowners. But carpentry projects can easily turn this goal into disappointment. Mismatched materials or contractors who don’t understand the nature of older homes can ruin the excitement. Homeowners want built-ins, custom shelving, trim repairs, or structural updates done right, without weeks of disruption, unclear timelines, or surprise costs.

Queen Anne Painting & Carpentry meets those needs with local expertise and a craftsman’s mindset. We understand Capitol Hill homes and approach every project with care and precision. From restoring original woodwork to designing custom features that blend seamlessly with existing style, our Capitol Hill carpenters deliver solutions that respect the home’s character while improving daily living.

We wanted to express to you our thanks for the work and relationship we have developed with Queen Anne Painting & Carpentry this past year. From our earliest conversations, and throughout each stage of our projects we have had a remarkably consistent and positive experience. Starting with Jennifer and Brian’s first walk through and Simon’s estimates and oversight – to the carpentry crew’s rebuilding of the garage roof, the exterior painting and most recently with the interiors painting crew – you have recruited an extraordinary team. Everyone we encountered was conscientious, committed to excellence, honesty and client satisfaction and they are excellent communicators.

To all of you at Queen Anne and those of you we worked with directly, you are the best! Best in craft, best in professionalism and integrity!

I met the Queen Anne Painting & Carpentry team when they did an extensive remodel of my master bath. I was so impressed with their work that once that project was finished, I had them move on to remodel the powder room. The carpenter I worked with was exceptional – personable, friendly, competent – with enormous integrity. Now I call on them for big jobs and small jobs. The entire team is delightful to work with and it is a pleasure to have them in my home. And if things don’t go exactly as planned, they stand by their work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What carpentry services are available for Capitol Hill homes?

We handle everything from structural repairs to detailed finishing. Our carpentry services include deck restoration, siding and trim replacement, dry rot repair, door and window installation, custom shelving and built-ins, wall paneling, and interior woodwork.

When should I call a professional carpenter?

If you notice wood that feels spongy, trim pulling away, stairs that shift underfoot, or doors and windows that no longer align, it’s time to bring in a professional. In a neighborhood with frequent moisture and older construction, these issues can spread quickly and affect surrounding materials if left unaddressed.

Can new work blend with my home’s original design?

Absolutely. Our team is experienced in recreating period details as well as clean, modern lines. We carefully match proportions, profiles, and finishes so repairs and additions feel like they’ve always been there.

How long does a project take?

Project length depends on size and complexity. Small fixes may be completed in a day, while larger builds require more time. After evaluating your space, we provide a realistic schedule to avoid surprises.

Are your services fully licensed and insured?

They are. We meet Washington State requirements and are familiar with local codes and permitting processes.
