Great job and some very happy children. Thanks Allan

Cubby construction

$350

Nicholas did an amazing job of staining my stairs. It took a little longer because of the drying time. The before and after photos are unreal.

Staircase stripped back and re-stained.

$400

Excellent experience, Jarron picked up really quickly what needed to be done. I had a disassembled structure that I had labelled badly, with old wood (warped and some parts broken off). Put it back together good as new. Patient, flexible and willing to share his knowledge with myself and teenager. Could not ask for more. Highly recommend.

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.

Check and fix a set of drawers

$50

South Hobart TAS, Australia

9th Oct 2024

I have a custom made set of drawers made from melamine and plywood that was made by two migrant carpenters. So there's no warranty. The issue is, the front of the top drawer when closed, sticks out to the left and does not align vertically at the front. Also, the front bottom of the second top drawer sticks out, and does not align vertically at the front. I contacted the makers about it, but they haven't replied. I wondered if a local and qualified carpenter may be able to visit and if either or both drawers can be fixed to align better when closed.
