Ranked by real Google ratings and review volume · How we chose

We compared 19 carpenters in Fort Lauderdale on Google Maps · 3 listed · How we rank

Carpentry in a South Florida home can mean a lit library wall, a rebuilt deck or a single custom table, and the carpenters in Fort Lauderdale on this page lean toward made-to-order work. Each one holds a perfect 5.0 on Google, but on review bases that run from more than 20 to more than 50, so the rating is encouraging rather than settled.

Short answer: R F Wood & Design LLC Fine Cabinetry is the custom built-in specialist here, a Fort Lauderdale cabinet maker rated 5.0 from more than 50 Google reviews. Black Gold Carpentry Services (Coconut Creek) and 330 Woodwork LLC. Custom Carpentry. (Oakland Park) also hold 5.0 on smaller review bases. Carpentry is quoted project by project, so get a written price before any work starts.

How the scorecard works

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business, compared with other carpenters in the area. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a perfect 5.0 on a few dozen reviews counts for less than the same score on hundreds. Recency shows how lately customers have left reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What drives the cost of carpentry work in Fort Lauderdale?

Carpentry is almost always priced by the project, so there is no standard rate to quote here. The main things that move a quote are the materials (solid wood, plywood, finished panels), how custom the design is, whether lighting or electrical work is built in, how much demolition or surface repair comes first, and whether the carpenter builds in a shop and installs on site. Ask each carpenter for a written scope and price before work begins.

Where these carpenters are based

R F Wood & Design is on NE 12th Ave in Fort Lauderdale, 330 Woodwork has an Oakland Park address, and Black Gold Carpentry is based in Coconut Creek. Looking for a carpenter near me? Each listing shows a phone number or website and a map link where one is available, so you can check distance before you call.

Questions to ask a carpenter before you book

  • Can you share photos of finished projects similar to mine?
  • Is the quote a fixed price for the whole job or priced by the hour?
  • Do you build in a shop and install, or work entirely on site?
  • Who handles any electrical work, such as lighting or an integrated TV or fireplace?
  • What is the timeline from design sign-off to installation?
  • Are you licensed and insured for this kind of work?

Frequently asked questions

Which carpenter here suits a built-in wall unit or library?

R F Wood & Design LLC Fine Cabinetry. Reviewers describe an entertainment wall, a custom wall unit with an integrated fireplace, and a home library with LED strips behind frosted glass. One of them added that an electrician had to be involved for the lights, TV and fireplace, and that this was made clear up front.

Does anyone here do outdoor carpentry like decks?

330 Woodwork LLC. Custom Carpentry. is the one with a deck in its reviews: one customer asked for damaged boards to be replaced and had the whole deck redone. The same business built a custom planter for a shared living area. Confirm with each carpenter whether your outdoor project is something they take on.

Do these carpenters work in Fort Lauderdale proper?

R F Wood & Design lists a Fort Lauderdale address. 330 Woodwork lists Oakland Park and Black Gold Carpentry lists Coconut Creek, so ask both whether they travel to your address and whether that affects the quote.

Is Black Gold Carpentry a good choice for a feature wall?

Its Google reviews describe slat walls, shiplap, a dry bar and a wood ceiling, which is the feature-wall side of carpentry. Its website gives very little detail, so ask for photos of finished work and a written scope before you commit.
