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.

Build Guinea Pigs Cages

$600

Colo Vale NSW 2575, Australia

6th Nov 2024

Hi Guys, Looking for someone experienced to make 2 sets of Guinea pig cages. Looking to get two SETs of cages made. Something very similar to attached picture but each with two cages stacked like in the picture but for each to have two sets of cages rather than 3 but also with legs to match. Each cage to have dimensions of 1200 mm total length and of this 350mm for the closed off section on the left side. Height 500 mm for each of the two cages. So total of 1000 mm for the two cages in total with additional 250 mm for legs Width of 500 mm The doors need to be such that the frame to which it fits into has a "lip" above the floor so that wood shavings etc doesn't fall out when opening the door and animals move around but also such that it's easy to clean out. Use mesh with 10 mm hole and for it to occupy most of the front of the open section so that plenty of light can get in and the water bottle can be hung on it somewhere. Good quality ply wood to keep it all light weight but very study and the flooring to be made "water proof" or painted with such paint so that the guinea pig urine and water doesn't damage it. Need it to have good final finish as it will be kept indoors. Hope all that makes sense. Can discuss details further once job is confirmed. Only experienced carpenter please. Thank you.

Build a deck (3.5m x 5.2m)

$500

Berry NSW, Australia

23rd Sep 2024

I need a deck built, approximately 5.2m wide and 3.5m deep (these dimensions can be flexible). It will come off from the sliding doors, which are raised about 30cm from the grass. We want to step down one step from the house onto the deck, as the grass slopes away downhill which will mean the edge of the deck should only need one more step down. I can supply all framing and decking timber.

Have released funds before building deck so that Ivy can get supplies. He turned up on time to assess the site and is building next week.
