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 have the knowledge and expertise in using power tools and building materials for construction projects.

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

Want to transform your backyard into a functional space? Carpenters can work as a decking specialist to help. 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 specialize 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 a 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.

I need a countertop installed with support to hold it up. I am just thinking of strong post that will be able to hold the countertop weight. I would like to slide a small refrigerator underneath on one end and then make some sort of cabinet door to hide the plumbing under the sink. It does not need a bottom, it can just sit on the floor. I did attach a sketch. I am just throwing out some prices because I have never worked with air Tasker before. I don’t think it is a complicated job. The plumbing hook up is already there a will just need to be hooked up.

Hello! My name is Saúl Flores and I'm looking to get a quote on refurbishing two of our conference tables in our office. They're approximately 13 ft L x 48 1/2 in. W x 1 1/2 in. H (Thickness). We want the tables to be sanded down, stain the wood and reseal it but we're also curious to see the prices on what different kinds of wood there are available and also changing the layout of the table. By layout I mean instead of having multiple strips of wood, possibly doing two large pieces or an entire piece covering the table. Please let me know if you need me to provide any further details to provide a quote! - Due date: Before Monday, February 12, 2024
