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.

Carpenter/Joiner to Inspect & Secure Retail Shelving - Epping

$200

Epping VIC 3076, Australia

8th Oct 2025

Hello, We are looking for an experienced carpenter, joiner, or skilled handyman to inspect and secure some retail shelving at our store, in Epping. The Issue: Several layers of our custom wall-mounted shelving units have started to pull away from the wall. This is a significant safety concern as we are worried about their stability and the risk of collapse. The shelves appear to be glued and possibly screwed to the wall, and some of these connections have failed. The Job: This is primarily an "inspect and secure" job. The scope of work includes: 1. Attending the site to thoroughly assess the structure and stability of the entire wall shelving unit. 2. Identifying all the points where the shelves have detached from the wall. 3. Supplying and installing small, discreet L-brackets underneath the affected shelves to securely re-fasten them to the wall. 4. Ensuring the installed brackets are strong, neatly fitted, and provide robust support to prevent any further movement. 5. Leaving the area clean and tidy. The primary goal is to make the shelving safe and secure. Please note: The successful contractor MUST supply all necessary materials, including appropriate L-brackets and wall fixings (e.g., plasterboard anchors, screws). The cost for these materials must be included in your offer. Requirements: - MUST have proven experience with commercial joinery, cabinet making, or carpentry. - You must supply all your own tools AND all necessary materials (as mentioned above). Location & Timing: Location: Pacific Epping, 571-583 High St, Epping VIC 3076 (exact location will be provided once the task is assigned) When: As this is a safety hazard, we need this repair completed as soon as possible. Please state your availability in your offer. Please provide a comprehensive quote for the complete job. Your offer should include your call-out/inspection fee, all labour, and the cost of supplying all required brackets and fixings. Thank you.

Scott was professional and thorough in inspecting and securing the retail shelving at Epping. The work was completed efficiently. Highly recommended.

Timber dog ramp (carpenter, handyman)

$1,500

Thomastown VIC 3074, Australia

8th May 2025

Hi there, I’ve just moved into the property and I’m looking to get a dog ramp built on my staircase leading into the backyard. My dog has hip dysplasia, so I need something functional and sturdy to help him get up and down safely. I’d like the ramp to be positioned on the left-hand side of the stairs, where the brick wall is. It doesn’t need to be anything fancy—just strong and practical. Ideally, it should be around 300–400mm wide. The total length is roughly 3 metres, though I’m not sure if it’ll need to bend around the corner—I’ll leave that to your professional advice. I’d also need a small side rail or edge along the ramp to prevent my dog from jumping off straight onto the stairs. One of the steps has some rendering coming loose, which I can remove if needed to make installation easier—just let me know. I'm somewhat flexible as i have 'guesstimated' on price and happy to arrange a site visit if you want to quote more directly. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

5 - Star operator, fantastic communication, craftsmanship, expertise and advice. I will work with him again.
