Broken doesn't always mean replace it.

We repair the wood in and on your home: rotted trim, doors that won't close, porch columns, railings and interior trim. We also repair the wooden furniture you'd rather keep, in our shop. Either way, good material gets repaired, and only what has failed gets replaced.

5.0 overall rating from 15 HomeAdvisor reviews. Serving Wake Forest, NC and nearby towns. Every repair is guaranteed for one year.

Repairs at your home

We come to you, look at the problem, and fix it on site: cut out what has failed, keep what is sound, and rebuild so the repair matches what was there.

Exterior wood rot
Rotted sills, trim, corner boards and brick mould, repaired or replaced to match.
Doors and door frames
Rotted jambs, doors that stick or sag, exterior door repair and replacement, storm doors.
Trim and fascia
Damaged exterior trim and fascia boards replaced with properly fitted pieces.
Porches
Column bases, columns, railings and porch boards.
Deck repairs
Failed deck boards and loose railings replaced without rebuilding the whole deck.
Molding and interior trim
Casing, baseboard, crown and interior railings, fitted and finished cleanly.
Closets and built-ins
Closet systems, shelving and built-in cabinetry made for the space.
Small custom work
One-off carpentry built to fit a specific spot in your home.

Or bring it to the shop

Portable pieces get repaired in our workshop, where the clamps, the glue and the time to do it right all live. These are structural repairs: making the piece solid and usable again.

Dining chairs
Loose joints, broken legs and rungs, split seats, failed glue. One chair or the whole set.
Rocking chairs
Broken rockers, spindles and stretchers, joints that have worked loose.
Drawers
Loose bottoms, broken dovetails, fronts pulling off, worn wooden runners. Bring just the drawer.
Cabinet doors
Split frames, cracked panels, stripped hinge holes, broken rails and stiles. One bad door doesn't mean new cabinets.
Stools and benches
Loose legs, broken stretchers, split or cracked seats.
Small tables and nightstands
Broken legs, loose aprons, split tops.
Bed parts
Broken rails, slats and cleats, headboard and footboard pieces you can remove and bring in.
Family pieces
Chests, handmade furniture and older solid-wood pieces that matter to you more than their price tag.

Who we are

Multilutions is run by Bernard Héroux. We started in Webster, New York, doing doors, trim, railings, built-ins and detailed woodworking, and the customers there are the ones you see quoted above.

We've since moved to North Carolina and reopened the shop here. The approach hasn't changed. If good material can be saved, we would rather repair it than sell you a replacement, and the job isn't finished until you're happy with it.

What helps us quote accurately

  • A photo of the whole piece, or the whole area of the house
  • One or two close-ups of the damage
  • Any broken-off parts you still have. Keep them, they often go back on.
  • Rough size, and whether it is solid wood if you know
  • Your town, so we know whether drop-off, pickup or a visit makes sense
