Carpentry and renovations in Perth

We work in Perth and the surrounding townships from our base in Carleton Place. Perth has many older homes, and they reward careful finish carpentry: mantels, trim and built-ins made to fit rooms that aren't perfectly square. We also build decks, fences and stairs, and install floors and tile.

Services we do in Perth

Fireplace mantels and surrounds

In a Perth living room we designed and built a custom classic mantel: multi-layered, with decorative corbels, an arched header and dentil crown moulding. It sits over a large-format tile surround with a matching raised step hearth, with the walls taped, sanded and painted to finish. See accent walls and fireplace surrounds.

Trim, wainscoting and built-ins

Baseboard, casing, crown, wainscoting and built-in shelving, scribed to the walls and floors you have. See finish carpentry and custom built-ins.

Tile and floors

Backsplashes, tile floors and fireplace tile, plus hardwood, engineered wood, vinyl and laminate. See tile installation and flooring.

Decks, fences and stairs

Outdoor carpentry framed to the house and the grade, with posts set for frost. When a renovation needs electrical or plumbing, we arrange qualified, certified electricians and plumbers.

Permits and local notes

Inside the Town of Perth, building permits go through the Town's Building Department. Perth is surrounded by rural townships, and many addresses with a Perth mailing address are actually in one of them, such as Tay Valley Township, which has its own Building Department. Which office applies depends on where the property sits, not the mailing address. Check with the offices below, or send us the address and we'll help you find the right one.

We can look after the permit as an optional extra, quoted separately, or you can handle it yourself. Our work in Ontario is done to the Ontario Building Code (O.Reg. 332/12).

Where we work from

We work from Carleton Place across Lanark County, including Perth, Smiths Falls and Lanark Highlands, and into west Ottawa.
