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.Â
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.Â
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.Â
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.Â
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.Â
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.

Assemble small shed
$200
Watson ACT, Australia
6th Jul 2024
I have purchased a 1.5m x 0.78m Easyshed narrow slider shed. See below: https://easyshed.com.au/collections/garden-sheds?filter.p.m.filter.shed_type=Narrow+Slider+Shed&filter.p.m.filter.width=1.5m It doesn’t come with pre-drilled holes, so will take time. Depending on the day, I can assist with the task too. You will need your own tools.
Steve was courteous and a pleasure to deal with. He asked me what were my requirements and clarified any potential issues. It was clear he had a lot of experience building sheds, he was fast and efficient, and was able to assemble mine in about three hours. He cleaned the area and left no rubbish or building material behind. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to build a shed.

O'Connor ACT, Australia

I need to build some stairs with nonslip wood from my garage. It likely need to be a custom design (example sketch) to leave room to walk around them in a tighter spot. Would like to have similar dimensions and non-slip wood to existing nearby steps (photo included). Happy for fewer and steeper steps, but need to be able to walk down going forwards from garage.
Excellent work, very helpful
