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 / Skilled Handyperson – Skirting & Door Installation
$200
Flagstaff Hill SA 5159, Australia
20th Sep 2026
I’m looking for a carpenter or someone with strong carpentry skills to complete a few finishing jobs around the house. 1. Refit / install skirting boards There are two areas that need skirting put back on: * Bedroom with newly installed built-in wardrobes – the existing skirting was removed to accommodate the wardrobes and now needs to be cut/modified and refitted neatly around them. * Spare bedroom corner – the skirting was removed due to previous pet damage, and the carpet was pulled back. This now needs to be reinstated. I have most of the original skirting pieces that were removed, including the pieces from around the wardrobes. I also have some additional new skirting available if required. I’m looking for someone who is confident with accurate cutting, joining, measuring and fitting skirting, particularly around corners/wardrobes, and who can achieve a clean, professional finish. Please note: I will be doing all the sanding, filling and painting myself. This job is purely for the cutting, fitting and fixing of the skirting. 2. Hang a new internal door I also need a brand-new internal door hung. The door has not had the hinges/hardware cut in yet, so this will require the appropriate hinge recessing/preparation and fitting. There was previously a door in this opening, so the existing frame and previous hinge positions can be used as a guide. I already have the door and all required hardware — I just need someone experienced to measure, cut/prep and hang it properly. Ideally looking for someone with carpentry experience who takes pride in getting a neat, accurate finish.

In order to fit my fridge into the space, need some help to: - Remove skirting board on the sides of fridge cavity.

The existing cabinet has been removed but can be reused. The existing cabinet is only a few centimeters long.
