Free estimates

See it before we build it.

Before
Where this basement started.
After
What we showed the owner before we started.

Every estimate we give comes with a video like this. It costs you nothing, the price comes in writing, and you see the job finished before we start.

Yours won't look exactly like this one. Every job is different and the video gets built around yours. The point is that you and us are looking at the same thing instead of guessing.

Design it yourself

Build it on screen first.

Three of our builds come with a live designer. Set the size, pick the colors and doors, and watch it draw itself — then send it over and we'll price that exact build. Takes about a minute and costs nothing.

How working with us goes

Three steps. That's it.

No showroom, no sales rep, no financing pitch. You reach out, we come look, we build it.

1

You send an email

Or a text, or a call. Design your build first if you want — it comes through with the message.

2

Free estimate, free quote

We come out, measure, and hand you a written price for the whole job. Costs nothing and you owe us nothing.

3

We come out and build it

We show up when we say we will, build it, clean up the site, and send you photos when it's done.

Who you're hiring

Carpenters, not a call center.

Rizzuto & Barbey Carpentry is two partners running out of Sandwich, six-plus years in the trade between framing houses and finishing them. That's the range you're hiring — the same hands that frame a wall from a print will hang the trim in the room, and figure out why your porch step is sinking.

  • Framing-trained, so structural problems get diagnosed, not covered up.
  • Written price before the work starts, not after.
  • Your call goes to a person, usually the same day.
  • Site picked up daily, everything hauled off at the end.
  • Sandwich, Plano, Yorkville, Oswego, Somonauk, Newark, Aurora and the towns around them.
