Premium finish carpentry for Avondale homes.

Finish carpentry in Avondale

Avondale is one of Jacksonville's most cherished historic neighborhoods: 1920s and '30s Tudor Revival, Colonial Revival, and brick bungalows along tree-lined streets near the Shoppes of Avondale. Homeowners here are preservation-minded, and the hardest part of working in these houses is making new work look like it was always there: matching original trim profiles, plaster-era proportions, and details a production carpenter would flatten.

We're at home in older houses. We replicate period casing and crown, build wainscoting and paneling that respect the home's age, and add discreet built-ins and media walls that modern life needs without fighting the architecture. The goal in Avondale is always the same: new millwork that a future owner would assume was original.

Most-requested in Avondale: custom accent walls, TV entertainment centers, dry bars, and custom built-ins.

  LED Accent Lighting: Classy or Tacky? It's All in the Details

  LED accent lighting shows up in most of the media walls we build, and whether it reads well or reads cheap comes down entirely to a handful of installation details. Hide the source, warm the color, dim it down, and the wall does the rest.

  Do Electric Flames Look Fake? What Today's Inserts Actually Look Like

  If your mental image of an electric fireplace is an orange plastic flicker on a loop, that technology basically doesn't exist anymore. Here's what the current generation of inserts actually looks like, and why the wall around the fire matters as much as the fire itself.

  Do Accent Walls Date a House? How We Design Ones That Last

  The red dining room was a paint trick. Good millwork is architecture. The two age very differently, and here's the test we run on every design before we cut a board.

• “I would highly recommend AVP Construction. I recently purchased a home in Avondale that was built in 1925. Due to a roof leak the house had some drywall damage. AVP replaced the damaged area, and as the pictures show, did a fantastic repair job. My hat is off to Ivan for doing such a good job!”
