We provide minor repairs to ensure a superior paint job and a flawless finish, supporting the longevity and durability of our work.

Light Carpentry to Prepare Your Surfaces for a Flawless Finish

At Jack Luther Custom Painting, Staining & Power Washing, our focus is on delivering top-quality finishes-and that starts with properly prepared surfaces. While we are not expert carpenters, we offer light carpentry services when needed to keep your painting project moving forward.

If there are a few loose or damaged pieces of siding, trim, or minor structural elements, we’re equipped to handle those basic repairs. This helps ensure a smooth, paint-ready surface without unnecessary delays. However, for larger or more complex carpentry needs, we recommend hiring a professional carpenter before we begin painting. In cases where we discover wood that’s rotting or areas that are beyond repair, we’ll let you know right away and advise the best course of action. If you need help finding a trusted contractor, we’re happy to share referrals.

Our goal is to provide a thorough, professional job-every time. When minor carpentry issues arise, you can count on us to let you know whether it’s something we can handle or if it’s best left to a specialist.

Keeping Your Property Structurally Sound & Paint-Ready

Before applying paint, stain, or protective coatings, the underlying surfaces must be stable, smooth, and damage-free. When trim, siding, or wood elements have minor issues, they need to be repaired before painting begins to achieve a flawless, long-lasting finish.

Here’s how our light carpentry services help:

Prevent Delays

We address minor repairs immediately to keep your painting project on schedule.

Ensure a Durable Finish

Properly repaired surfaces hold paint better, preventing future peeling or deterioration.

Avoid Costly Damage

Fixing loose boards or trim early helps prevent more extensive and expensive repairs later.

Preserve Curb Appeal

Even small imperfections in wood trim, siding, or molding can stand out after painting-fixing them first ensures a pristine final look.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What type of carpentry services do you offer?

We are capable of handling minor carpentry repairs when needed. If the repairs are excessive or complex, we recommend seeking the help of a professional carpenter. Simple repairs, such as replacing a rotted piece of wood, can easily be completed.

When wood starts to rot, it becomes soft and flexible and can easily break apart. Paint will not adhere to loose materials, and the fasteners holding the wood in place may fail to provide adequate support.

Yes. Most pieces of woodwork are standard designs and sizes that can be ordered. However, if it is custom millwork, you will need the help of a professional carpenter.

If it is a simple repair that we can handle, there may be a small additional cost for the extra time, usually no more than one day. If there is extensive damage and you need a professional carpenter, it may delay the painting project until the carpentry work is completed.

Get a Smooth, Flawless Finish-Starting with the Right Repairs

Even small repairs can make a big difference in the final look and longevity of your paint job. At Jack Luther Custom Painting, Staining & Power Washing, we ensure that all surfaces are in the best condition before we paint. If your project requires light carpentry, we’ll take care of it-or recommend a trusted professional for more extensive work.
