| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair | From $650 | Killeen's hot humid summers, spring downpours and flash-flood moisture along Nolan Creek make wood rot a real threat to the city's older frame cottages and post-war ranches. We cut out decayed framing, siding and trim, treat the surrounding wood, and rebuild with rot-resistant lumber, a permanent repair, not a cosmetic patch. |
| Termite Damage Repair | From $1,200 | Long, humid Bell County summers and mild winters keep subterranean termite pressure high most of the year across Killeen homes. After the exterminator leaves, the damaged wood stays, we replace termite-eaten studs, sills, trim and subfloor sections, working from your pest inspection report and restoring full structural integrity. |
| Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair | From $1,800 | Sagging, bouncy or soft floors in Killeen's older homes usually trace to termite-damaged joists or subfloor, or to shrink-swell clay heaving and settling under pier-and-beam foundations after wet springs and dry summers. We sister or replace compromised joists and rebuild subfloor sections, leveling floors before finishes go back down. |
| Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal | From $3,500 | Open-concept conversions and failing beams call for real structural carpentry. We install engineered beams, replace sagging headers and remove load-bearing walls, always built to the engineer's specs and the permit process that applies at your Killeen address. |
| Framing & Structural Carpentry | From $2,500 | Remodel framing done right: new interior walls, garage and ADU build-outs, wall openings, and repairs to hail-, storm- or termite-damaged framing. Straight, plumb and square, the bones your finish work deserves. |
| Finish & Trim Carpentry | From $550 | The details that separate a real finish carpenter from a handyman: tight miters, scribed fits, consistent reveals. Casing, paneling, wainscoting and custom trim work throughout Killeen homes, from downtown cottages to new brick subdivisions. |
| Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation | From $450 | Crown molding, baseboards, chair rail and window trim installed with the coped joints and clean caulk lines Killeen's older cottages and newer Bunny Trail homes deserve, matched to existing period profiles or kept crisp and modern. |
| Custom Built-Ins & Shelving | From $1,900 | Built-in bookshelves, window seats, media walls, closet systems and Murphy beds designed for Killeen's post-war ranches and newer brick homes, custom-fitted to bay windows, vaulted ceilings and every awkward alcove. |
| Interior Door Installation & Repair | From $350 | Doors that stick, swing open on their own, or never latched right, in Killeen homes, often shifting clay soil or termite damage inside the jamb. We hang, adjust and replace interior doors, repair jambs and frames, and install pocket and barn doors. |
| Exterior & Entry Door Installation | From $850 | Entry, back and French doors installed weather-tight against Bell County heat, humidity and sudden spring hailstorms, properly flashed, insulated and secured. We repair rotted or termite-damaged door frames and thresholds or replace the full unit. |
| Cabinet & Vanity Installation | From $1,100 | Precise installation of kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities and laundry storage, leveled on Killeen's often out-of-level older floors and shifting slabs, scribed to out-of-square walls, with hardware aligned and doors adjusted. |
| Stair & Railing Repair | From $600 | Squeaky treads, loose banisters, worn stringers: we repair and rebuild the staircases in Killeen's two-story subdivision homes and split-level houses, restore older railings, and install sturdy handrails and attic ladders. |
| Deck & Porch Repair | From $900 | Humidity, termites, hail and Nolan Creek's flash floods are hard on Killeen decks and porches. We replace rotted or termite-damaged boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and structural framing, and get outdoor spaces safe and solid, repair-first, honest about when replacement wins. |
| Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair | From $700 | Peeling paint, hail dents and soft fascia boards are the first sign of rot or termite entry moving in. We replace fascia, soffits and exterior trim with primed, rot-resistant material, closing the gaps that let moisture and pests into the roofline. |
What Affects the Price
- Extent of Damage or Project Scope : Small repairs like interior door installation cost less than major structural work like beam replacement. The larger the area affected, the more time and materials required.
- Material Quality and Type : Premium wood species, custom finishes, and high-end trim materials increase costs compared to standard options. We help you choose materials that fit your budget and vision.
- Accessibility and Site Conditions : Hard-to-reach areas, tight spaces, or homes requiring special setup may take longer to complete, affecting the final price.
- Additional Repairs Discovered During Work : Hidden rot, structural issues, or damage found once work begins may require additional repairs. We communicate these findings immediately and discuss options with you.
