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 Timber Frame

We are wanting to separate the 2 spaces by turning the Ikea wardrobes into built-ins by building frames around them then plaster and paint. We are looking for a carpenter to build the framing. Works: 1. Cut 1 x freestanding wardrobe in half, and fix on top of the existing wardrobes (in effect creating floor to ceiling for 2 of the robes). Blue boxes in the photo. 2. Build timber frame ready for plastering, effectively cutting the room in half. Orange boxes. 3. Attach framing to the rear and sides to allow Gyproc to be attached. 4. Reinforce framing between the 2 cabinets (the ones cut and fixed in step 1) to allow a TV to be mounted. Notes: - Appreciate the wardrobe will likely be fixed too - We understand we will lose access to the roof access panel - We need you to be qualified and insured - Please ensure your quote includes all materials, fees and so forth - Located in Spring Hill QLD 4000

Mark was awesome! Highly recommended and will definitely be using him again. 11 out of 10 stars :)

Replace Skirting Board

$200

Toowong QLD, Australia

15th Jun 2024

Hi, Need some skirting boards replaced and a corner section that runs vertical up the left hand side of picture replaced. I am looking to carpet at some stage and want these parts fixed. The corners are rubbish and have disintegrated. Need the whole vertical one that goes up from the floor to the roof on the left has come loose and needs replacing (in addition to the corner section). Location is Sherwood Road, Toowong. Happy to have 1 x inspection and then 1 x installation (or all done on one day is fine as well). I want the product to be supplied and installed. I can take handle any rubbish. No need for replacement boards to be painted. 1. The vertical board is roughly 240cm long and 75mm by 44mm. 2. The skirting board on the corners is approximately 90mm x 55mm (each; very small sections on two corners to be replaced). 3. The other section is 35mm + 600mm length of normal skirting board. cheers Patrick

We have tried multiple cleaners in the past, who can’t seem to lift these particular stains from dog urine. Needing 3 large bedrooms steam cleaned, with heavy duty stain remover.
