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.

Shed relocation

Wallan VIC, Australia

25th Jan 2025

I need a shed relocated. It only needs to move about 4-5 metres from where it currently is.

Shed is about 3 x 4 metres so not huge.

Installation: Services Rendered

$2,000

Eltham VIC, Australia

11th Oct 2024

We’ve purchased an IKEA kitchen and are ready for installation. The job will involve cutting the wooden benchtop to size (Bunnings is just a 5-minute drive from our home). The old kitchen has already been demolished, and the new kitchen has arrived in flatpacks, ready to be installed. We’re located in Eltham and would like to discuss the project briefly before providing you with the keys. We’ll be away from Saturday to Tuesday and are looking for someone experienced with high ratings who can complete the job between 12 and 15 October while we’re away. The kitchen is fully ordered to size and currently in boxes. We have a new gas cooktop, but we’ll be reusing the existing oven and dishwasher. The benchtops are IKEA wooden slabs that will need cutting, which can be done at Bunnings nearby.

Frank assembled our IKEA kitchen from scratch and did an impeccable job, going above and beyond. He offered valuable advice on our other ongoing construction projects, using his experience to likely save us time and prevent mistakes. Frank is generous with his time and has an incredible attention to detail. We even entrusted him with our house keys while we were away, and returned to a beautifully finished kitchen.
