How the scorecards work

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume shows how many customers have rated each business compared with the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from a few dozen reviews reads as early rather than settled. Recency shows how recently customers are still leaving reviews.

What does a carpenter charge in Minneapolis?

No prices are published here. Carpentry quotes depend on the kind of work (a deck rebuild, a set of stair parts and a door repair are priced very differently), the materials, how much of the house is old or out of square, and whether the carpenter works alone or with a crew. Ask each business for a written quote that breaks out labor and materials.
