Michael brings all his own equipment including drop sheets and is very thorough. Great clean.

Clean Stainless Steel Four Burner BBQ

Stanley knew exactly what he was doing and even went out of his way to go to Bunnings to pick up extra pieces knowing the cabinet wouldn't be very sturdy for a long time. I really appreciated it, would highly recommend him for any work around the house.

What an amazing job! Ganzorig assembled the greenhouse in less than an hour. He was very pleasant and easy to work with. I didn't even have to supervise him. I highly recommend him!

Assemble a small greenhouse

Robert is amazingly talented, has an extraordinary eye for detail - and most importantly- cares about delivering above expectations. This was a very novel and challenging task - he embraced it as a personal challenge and delivered an exceptional product in less time than expected and with an attitude and service (in terms of communication and options) that was better than any other air-tasker experience I have had. To put this in context - it was a $2,500 complex carpentry task. I can not recommend him highly enough.

I would highly recommend Jono. We engaged him to replace the panels on our kitchen island. He was very professional in his approach from the time he came to inspect the site until conclusion. The new panels match perfectly with the rest of the island and look great. He clearly takes pride in doing a good job.

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.

Minor fix to my timber deck?

$350

Surry Hills NSW, Australia

10th May 2024

One of the crossbeams under my deck has rotted away, so a couple of the top slats are bouncy when you walk on them. It is sitting directly on a concrete slab, so there's no safety issue or anything. I reckon to fix it, it'll require pulling up the slats, replacing the crossbeam underneath, doing some fiddling to get the height right, and then nailing the slats back down. I would prefer if you can supply the materials, but if you need, I could get a new wooden beam. In the photo you can see where the top slats are dipping down because the crossbeam isn't holding them up from underneath.

I would like a handy gardener to set up a vertical potted plant wall garden in the in-house atrium. Looking to install the structures and add the potted plants. Materials required is out of pocket and can be sourced within an agreed budget. The photo attached is a white wall of our atrium and the 2 other photos are inspiration photos of a flexible wall garden. The approved quote accounts for the time and effort for the set up, which I expect to be within 2 hours. Happy to understand if there are other considerations.

Jason was lovely to work with. I immediately felt comfortable with him and knew the job was in safe hands. There were a few curve balls with the build requirements, but he just solved it all easy breezy.
