What does a carpenter 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 can help you with many different tasks. Carpenters take on a wide range of work, such as fixing areas of houses and building furniture from scratch.

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 plasterwork. 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

Don't know what to do with all that space in your backyard? Hire a carpenter who specialises in building decks. 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

Cabinetmakers 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. Cabinetmakers 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.

Full height enclosure, cupboard frame with doors to close off a recess

£500

Walworth, Greater London

12th Sep 2024

Need a full-height partition (with doors) made from scratch for a recessed space in room. It is basically only a frame with doors, as shown in the pictures attached. We want to install some existing 800mm deep metal shelves inside this space (see image), so internal shelving or partitioning is not needed. Ideally a matt white finish is needed for the frame and doors, avoiding laminates etc. Want to avoid anything that comes off in time due to humidity and or temperature changes. There is high skirting on both sides and some side-space may need to be filled by the frame as doors are 0.5m each, i.e. covering around 2m of the 2.6m full width. I’m assuming a central post will be needed to create a two-part frame (see dark blue lines in image), unless a full unobstructed opening is possible for this size somehow (e.g. with sliding doors?). This can be done in wood carpentry unless some form of metal framing is better and/or cheaper for such partitioning – open to suggestions. The walls, floors, and ceilings are not precisely plumb/90 degree angles, so some fillers/finer adjustments will be required for the frame to be attached to walls, floor, and ceiling. Main questions are: 1. What option would be best for this situation 2. How much will it cost total (material + labour) 3. How many days will it take to complete 4. Is it possible to do with minimum disruption on site as the room is in daily use, i.e. Can the work be done outside/elsewhere and brought in for final assembly etc. Please get in touch with quotes and responses to the above points. (The £500 price is used as a placeholder only.)
