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.

Basic carpentry, cut/lay quad and trim cupboard doors

$600

Northcote VIC, Australia

19th May 2025

Hi, need some basic carpentry help in Northcote please. 1. Lay quad/quarter round in a 3.7 x 3.7m room on 3 sides as per image. The quad is already painted, it will need to be measured (noting a slight drop on the floor), cut at 45 degrees as needed and nailed down between trim and carpet, also adding 45 degree end caps at door opening etc where marked in blue on the room plan. 2. There are 8 wardrobe cuboard doors in the 2 front rooms and 6 of them drag on the new carpet when opening, so they need to be removed from their quick release hinges, planed/sanded/cut a few mms off the bottom without splintering or ruining the paint on the front, then re hanged. It's a little fiddly lining up the 3 hinges to get them hanged again. 3. Quick one, another room has 4 raised wardrobes and just want to install some angle L brackets up the top to fix them against the wall for safety. I have bought the brackets and have a ladder to get up there. Will need your own table saw, nail gun, drill. etc. I have a big back garage to work in (as per pic) but the house has been cleaned for tenants and needs to stay that way please. House is currently empty and there's a lock box for easy access. Thanks!

Great work, super quick, thanks!
