Carpentry & Trim Work
in Dedham, MA
Expert carpentry and trim work services across Massachusetts. From rotten trim replacement to custom door installations, Alfa Construction delivers precise craftsmanship that transforms your home's interior and exterior.
Professional Carpentry for Dedham Homeowners
Whether you are finishing a newly purchased Dedham condo or updating a multi-family property, Alfa Construction delivers carpentry work that adds value and visual impact. We install quality trim, solid doors, and custom built-ins that transform urban spaces from generic to exceptional, all while respecting the schedules and shared spaces of city living.
In older Dedham row houses and triple-deckers, walls are rarely perfectly plumb and floors are seldom level. That means trim installation requires constant adjustment — scribing baseboards to uneven floors, shimming casings to out-of-square openings, and custom-cutting pieces to fit angles that are anything but standard. Inexperienced carpenters struggle in these conditions, and the results show.
For Dedham condo and townhouse owners, we offer space-maximizing carpentry solutions: pocket doors that eliminate swing clearance, built-in shelving that turns dead corners into storage, and slim-profile trim that adds elegance without eating into room dimensions. Every detail is designed for the realities of urban living.
Carpentry Note for Dedham
Dedham's historic Fairbanks House, the oldest surviving timber-frame house in North America, exemplifies the town's deep construction heritage that inspires homeowners to invest in quality carpentry for their own properties.

Our Carpentry Process in Dedham
We follow a proven step-by-step process to deliver outstanding carpentry & trim work results for every Dedham homeowner.
Consultation & Assessment
We visit your home to inspect the areas that need carpentry work. We assess the condition of existing trim, doors, and woodwork, discuss your goals and preferences, and provide a detailed written estimate covering materials, labor, and timeline.
Material Selection & Ordering
Based on your preferences and budget, we source the right materials — whether that is solid hardwood for interior trim, PVC or composite for rot-proof exteriors, or pre-hung door units from top manufacturers. We match profiles to your existing woodwork whenever possible.
Removal & Preparation
Our crew carefully removes old trim, doors, or damaged woodwork. We inspect the underlying structure for hidden issues like water damage, mold, or insect activity. Any structural concerns are addressed before new materials go in, ensuring a solid foundation.
Installation & Fitting
New trim, doors, and woodwork are measured, cut, and installed with precision. Every miter joint is tight, every baseboard is level, and every door is shimmed and adjusted for smooth operation. We use finish nails, construction adhesive, and proper fastening techniques for a secure, lasting fit.
Finishing & Final Inspection
All nail holes are filled, joints are caulked, and surfaces are sanded smooth. If painting or staining is part of the project, we apply finishes to match your home. We walk through the completed work with you, making any adjustments on the spot until you are completely satisfied.
