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.

Help with dishwasher install

$20

Glenorchy TAS, Australia

19th Jul 2024

I have purchased a dishwasher to have installed in my kitchen, which does not have any existing connections. I had initially planned to have it installed in the middle cupboard that has been cleared out, but it will not be quite wide enough, even if the side panels of that cupboard are removed. (Existing width is 565mm, without panels would be 595mm, and the dishwasher needs at least 598mm) Would greatly appreciate help with where it should be installed, as no matter where it ends up, some cupboards will need to be modified. Then I will need to organise the power point and plumbing connections. Thanks in advance

Putting up a garden shed

$1,000

Glenorchy TAS, Australia

11th Jul 2024

Looking to put two flatpack wooden garden sheds up, one small (1.92 x 0.94m) and one larger (3.64 x 2.54m). Builder will need to bring their own tools (drill, spirit level etc.) Both have a reinforced floor, but the corners of each shed will need to be concreted in the ground. Builder will need to source the concrete material. We estimate it will take 3-4 days to complete. Here are links to the sheds (including their assembly instruction manuals) for more details: https://www.stilla.com.au/product/birch-6x3/ https://www.stilla.com.au/product/willow-12x8/
