How do you find a good carpenter?

To find a good carpenter near you, do the following:

• Use Thumbtack to find a list of carpenters in your area.
• Filter the list by selecting a specific carpentry service, such as general carpentry or cabinetry. 
• Identify carpenters who have high ratings.
• View the carpenters’ profiles and learn more about their specialties. 
• Read their customer reviews and look at photos of their past work.

After you get a good sense of their quality of work, make sure the carpenter has the necessary credentials in your state. Then, request several cost estimates for your project(s).
