The booked job mix general handymen see in this market
Finish carpentry books as baseboard and crown runs, interior door hangs and rehangs, window casing, wainscot and custom built-ins. These are half-day to multi-day jobs with real ticket size.
Door work alone is steady volume: prehung swaps, slab hangs on existing jambs, closet and barn door installs, and hardware alignment on doors that have dropped or bound over time.
California's older housing stock — craftsman, mid-century and Spanish revival — generates constant matching and repair work that stock-lumber installers cannot handle.
