What do carpenters do?

Whether you’re planning a major renovation on your home or you simply want to make things look a bit nicer, hiring a carpenter or chippy can help you with many different tasks. Carpenters use different types of power tools and hand tools to carry on building and construction work. 

Carpentry work is generally broken down into two types: rough and finish. Rough carpentry refers to work that doesn’t have an intricate look, as it’s covered up – often by bricks, tiles, or plaster work. Finish carpentry covers the work that will be on display, so needs to have a nicer finish. Furniture, decking, and window frames all fall into this second category. 

Decking

Many Australian homes are blessed with a large backyard and plenty of sunny hours to enjoy that space. A decking specialist can add an outdoor deck or upgrade an existing one that opens up your outdoor space. This is great if you want to entertain guests or eat outside as a family during the sunny months. 

Cabinet making

Cabinet makers are one example of finish carpentry, because of the high level of detail that goes into their end products. Unlike structural work, it’s important that a cabinet looks nice, so this type of carpenter is a lot more focused on fine details. Cabinet makers often specialise in other forms of furniture making too. 

Refinishing carpentry

While structural carpentry is concerned with jobs on the large end of the scale, trim or refinishing carpentry looks at the small end. A trim carpenter is the way to go if you want someone to fix up your skirting boards, cornicing, or a similar aspect of your home.

Custom made furniture

A house isn’t a home without a few personal touches, and if you’d rather avoid the cookie-cutter Ikea approach to decorating your property, hiring a carpenter to create custom-made furniture can make you stand out. Whether you want chairs, tables, or a shoe rack, there’s someone nearby who can help. 

Joinery

Joinery services encompass the craftsmanship of creating and joining wood in workshops, distinct from on-site carpentry. These services range from bespoke projects to crafting timber buildings, emphasizing precision and passion. Joiners play a crucial role in interior woodwork, window and door production, and specialized construction, offering tailored and quality timber solutions.

We are looking for an experienced door installer. We have 7 solid wood 3 panel interior doors (primed) to be installed in pre existing door jambs. Have all new hardware, handles, latches, hinges, fittings etc. The doors are primed but not finish painted. We are flexible for quotes that include painting, or just installation only and can have them painted separately. Door sizes match the door jambs with a combination of 720x2040 and 820x2040. Two doors would require shortening to x2020 length to fit in bathroom. Latches are 60mm backset with centre distance of 41.5 and smaller than typical handle rose of 56mm. The existing door jambs have 85x60 hinge cutting, however the new fixed pin door hinges are 100x75mm and will need to be modified and may require a router/jig capable to modify the existing jamb/stops. Based in Norwood, Looking forward to hearing from you!

Build me a free standing pull up bar that is no wider than 80cm

$250

Norwood SA, Australia

14th Dec 2024

I have a hallway that I want to put a pull up bar in but the space is only 80cm wide. I’ve looked for commercial ones and they are wider. It’s a present for someone who is 172cm and they would like to have to jump up to it to use it. Would obviously have to be sturdy. Definitely needs to be free standing as I don’t want to screw anything into the walls.

We just need to reattach an old skirting board as well as the quarter round back to the underlying masonry after salt damp treatment. We’ll sort out painting and detailing (since it’s an old house the top of the skirting board is all caulked up to seal it to the brick) unless you’re willing to do that too!

Mark was brilliant! Did a fantastic job fixing a skirting board in our 150 year-old house where nothing is straight or level. Punctual, high-quality, lovely guy, highly recommend!
