What do carpenters near me do?

Whether you’re planning a major renovation on your home or you simply want to make things look a bit nicer, hiring carpenters near me for small jobs or chippy can help you with many different tasks. Carpenters use other 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. 

Carpenters for 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. 

Carpenters for 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 jobs like wood staining and removal of old finish. 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, or even kitchen installation there’s someone nearby who can help. 

Joinery carpenters

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.

Custom Market Stall Front Table / Counter – Collapsible Timber Build

$700

Adelaide SA, Australia

13th Jan 2026

Hi, I’m looking for a skilled carpenter / joiner / cabinet maker to design and build a custom front table / counter for my market stall. I’ve attached a reference image to show the general look and style I’m aiming for (modern, timber and black, clean and professional), but this needs to be purpose-built for real market use rather than decorative furniture. The table needs to be collapsible or modular so it can be packed down and transported easily. It must be lightweight enough to move, but strong and stable enough to comfortably hold a pie warmer and basic service equipment — it cannot be flimsy. Minimum depth required is 50cm. Total length will be approximately 2–3 metres, and I’m open to advice on the best modular layout. It will be freestanding inside a marquee and needs to sit level on uneven ground. Materials would ideally be timber (or timber-look panels) with black structural elements, finished cleanly and professionally for food market use. The front panel should allow for a logo to be added later (likely an acrylic sign). I’m open to modular sections rather than one long piece, and I’ll need space for staff entry/exit at one end. Happy to collaborate on practical improvements — function is just as important as aesthetics. Please include any relevant experience or photos of similar work, a rough price range, estimated build time, and any suggestions you think would improve the design. Thanks, and I look forward to working with the right person.

North Adelaide SA 5006, Australia

29th Dec 2025

I’m looking for a carpenter / joiner / cabinet maker to design and build a custom modular U-shaped timber bench/counter for use inside a 3×3m market marquee. The bench will: • form a U shape around the inside perimeter of the marquee • be made of multiple straight sections that connect together • have angled corner joins so sections meet neatly • include fold-down / collapsible legs for support and easy pack-down • be designed for frequent setup and transport at outdoor markets I have reference images showing the style and functionality I’m after. This is a custom joinery project, not a flat-pack or handyman job. Happy to discuss materials, design refinements, and whether this is best built in a workshop.
