Carpentry Subcontracting for General Contractors
You don't need another sub you have to babysit.
If you're a GC running commercial or residential projects in East Texas
CAB Carpentry is the carpentry trade that shows up, hits milestones
and communicates without you having to chase.
We work as a carpentry subcontractor on commercial job sites and new residential builds — trim and door packages, restroom partition installs, finish carpentry, and punch list work. We know what the GC relationship needs to look like and we respect your schedule.
Our scope integrates cleanly with your sequencing. We don't hold up drywall, we don't hold up paint, and we don't leave open items on the punch list past the walkthrough.
Sound familiar?
- Your carpentry sub keeps missing start dates.
- Subs leave punch list items open and you're the one answering the owner.
- You need a trim crew that can follow drawings without 20 RFIs.
- You're tired of coordinating framing and finish with two different subs.
- You want a sub who'll pick up the phone on Saturday when it matters.

- 01
Pre-bid walk + scope lock
We walk the site with you, read the drawings, and lock in exactly what's in our scope — no "I thought you meant" at rough-in.
- 02
Hit the milestones
We sequence to your schedule. If we see a conflict with another trade, we flag it early — not after we're on site.
- 03
Close out clean
Punch list completed the first pass. We don't leave open items that drag into the final walkthrough.
Why general contractors keep us on speed dial
- Experienced carpentry sub on commercial and residential job sites
- Reliable start dates and clean milestone hits
- Communicates directly with GC and owner as needed
- Punch list work completed first-pass — not drawn out
Questions general contractors usually ask
Do you work as a carpentry subcontractor under a GC?
Yes. Commercial job site carpentry, trim and door packages, restroom partition installs, and punch list work under a general contractor are a regular part of our scope.
Can you work from our construction documents?
Yes. We read architectural and MEP drawings and work from the specs provided. If the drawings don't match field conditions, we flag it early in writing.
Are you licensed and insured to work on commercial job sites?
Yes. CAB Carpentry is licensed and insured in Texas, with coverage that meets typical GC subcontractor requirements. We can provide certificates of insurance on request.
Do you install fire-rated and ADA-compliant door assemblies?
Yes. Fire-rated commercial door assemblies and ADA-compliant hardware are within our scope. We install to code and to the hardware schedule.
Can you handle punch list work only?
Yes. Punch list-only engagements are welcome — trim touch-ups, door adjustments, hardware fixes, and finish corrections. We close items the first pass.
