We provide a full range of carpentry services for Murphy properties — from custom cabinetry and finish carpentry to decks, outdoor structures, framing, and structural wood repair.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets
We build and install custom kitchen cabinets for Murphy homes, sized to the room, the appliances, and the way the household cooks — not pulled from a catalog and forced into the opening.
Cabinets are built from cabinet-grade plywood with hardwood face frames, soft-close drawer slides, concealed hinges, scribe fillers, toe kicks, and adjustable shelving. In the larger kitchens common to Murphy's custom and newer homes, we coordinate island cabinetry, pantry towers, and appliance panels so the cabinet runs fit the room cleanly.
The result is a kitchen with coordinated cabinet runs, drawers that close quietly, doors that align, and storage laid out for how the household actually uses the space.
Custom Built-Ins
We build custom built-in bookcases, media centers, fireplace built-ins, and shelving for Murphy living rooms, home offices, and mudrooms — fitted wall-to-wall rather than dropped in as freestanding furniture.
Built-ins use cabinet-grade plywood, hardwood face components, adjustable shelves, shelf pins, drawer banks, cabinet doors, and scribe fillers. We plan wire chases for media and integrate crown and base trim so the built-in reads as part of the room, not a piece of furniture pushed against it.
The outcome is storage and display that looks original to the home, fitted to the wall and ceiling with clean trim transitions and no awkward gaps.
Crown Molding Installation
We install crown molding in Murphy homes to finish the wall-to-ceiling transition and add architectural detail to larger, newer rooms that can carry the profile.
Molding is cut with cope joints at inside corners, scarf joints on long runs, and compound miters at outside corners. We use poplar for paint-grade work, MDF where appropriate, and hardwood for stain-grade trim, with scribe adjustments for walls and ceilings that are not perfectly straight.
The result is continuous, tight-jointed molding that hides uneven wall-to-ceiling gaps and gives the room a finished, custom look.
Patio Cover Construction
We build attached and freestanding patio covers for Murphy homes to extend usable outdoor living through North Texas heat and sun exposure.
Patio covers use posts, beams, rafters, a ledger for attached structures, roof tie-in, flashing, footings, post anchors, and structural fasteners. Because attached covered structures can trigger permit requirements, we confirm scope with the City of Murphy permitting authority where applicable and do not invent code sections or fees.
The outcome is a shaded, weather-protected patio that stays cooler and extends usable outdoor time through the Murphy summer.
Deck Construction
We build new wood and composite decks for Murphy backyards, sized to the lot and the way the household uses outdoor space.
Decks use pressure-treated lumber, cedar, or composite decking over joists, beams, posts, ledger boards, flashing, joist hangers, and structural connectors. We use hidden deck fasteners on surface boards and plan railings, stairs, and stair stringers to the layout.
The result is a level, stable deck with safe railings and proper drainage that holds up to North Texas sun and seasonal storms.
Custom Closets
We build custom walk-in and reach-in closet systems for Murphy bedrooms, organizing wardrobe towers, hanging rods, and drawer banks around how the household actually stores clothing.
Closets use wardrobe towers, double-hang and long-hang sections, drawer banks, adjustable shelving, cabinet doors, shoe shelves, and cabinet-grade plywood panels. We scribe fillers to walls that are not square and anchor components to framing.
The outcome is a closet that uses the full wall height, keeps clothing organized, and reads as built-in rather than a wire-shelf retrofit.
