Recent Carpentry reviews in Newcastle

I placed the job up yesterday and today saw the completion of our job. 😊We are very grateful for the prompt response. Andrew was great. Polite, friendly and very knowledgeable. Our cabinet did not come with a fixtures pack but this was no issue. It looks great on the wall. We highly recommend Andrew and Ellene. Thank you so much.

Shane was a nice guy who unfortunately had some dramas happening at the same time as the job, making it difficult for him to focus on the task. He has a great can-do attitude and nothing seems to hard for him.

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.

Need a cabinet maker to cut and join a cupboard door to reduce width.

$100

Merewether NSW 2291, Australia

9th Jun 2025

I have installed a dishwasher in our kitchen which required shortening one of the modules to fit. This was a corner module with a hinged double corner door which needs to have one panel of the door cut and rejoined to fit the narrower section. This will need to be taken out of the centre due to the decorative boarder and also the hinge insets. Can deliver the panel almost anywhere Newcastle/Hunter as I travel daily for work.

Looking for someone to help me update a granny flat. I need the below: 1. Replace old laminate bench tops in small kitchenette with some sort of cheap stone look. 2. Paint old kitchen cabinetry and replace handles. 3. Measure and install plantation shutters on 2 windows. 4. Measure and install new screen door and entry door & fit a doggy door. Happy to chat about how this would work in terms of ordering materials etc. I am very flexible on dates and times as I work from home so I’m always around if this needs to be done across a few different dates. I want to do all of this as cheap as possible to freshen up the space. Looking for a rough quote for someone to just take it all off my hands :)

Carpentry framing bay window (interior)

$450

Swansea NSW 2281, Australia

Framing bay window in a bedroom. Could potentially need some work done on the exterior too. Needs gyprock on bottom and top. Basically just lined and finished as the window is already in. You’ll need to come and see it to give a quote. Qualified carpenters/builders only. Experience needed

David completed the framing and work around a bay window. He has done an exceptional job. He came to check out the job on a Sunday so he could get into it Monday. We thought it may take 3 days but David completed the job in one day and it looks awesome! Even our builder found this job tricky, but David enjoyed the challenge. We are very grateful for the awesome job David has done. Will definitely be using him again.

Joiner to help fix up kitchen cabinets after dishwasher install

$350

Maryland NSW, Australia

16th Oct 2024

Just wanted to see if there were any joiners or carpetners available to help fix up our cabinets since we had a dishwasher installed. The trimming at the bottom is too high for the dish washer door to open. This needs a cut out so the door can open fully. There is also a big gap and need some sort of plating put in place to cover it up (or any other shelving suggestion etc..) Noting the dishwasher has been glued into place so we have to work around it :/ Budget adjusted to best recommendations...Reach out if you need further information..
