Repair rotten timber door/window frame

£500

Harlesden, Greater London, NW10

14th Sep 2026

I’m looking for an experienced carpenter/joiner to repair rotten timber around an existing glazed door/window frame. IMPORTANT – FIXED PRICE / MATERIALS INCLUDED I’m looking for an all-inclusive quote covering labour, materials, Airtasker fees and other expected costs. I’m not looking for a labour-only quote with materials charged separately on the day. I appreciate there may be hidden damage that cannot be assessed from photos, and I’m not expecting you to take on unforeseen work within the original price. I just want the scope and total price for the proposed repair to be clear before work starts. If unforeseen damage is discovered once opened up, please let me know the additional work/cost before proceeding, so I can decide whether to go ahead. Two main damaged areas (see photos): Long rotten section along the horizontal timber between the upper/lower glazing. Rot/deterioration at the bottom/threshold of the frame. I do not want the whole frame replaced. I’m looking for the most economical practical repair to extend its life. Ideally: cut back loose/rotten timber, splice/replace badly damaged sections with suitable timber, use exterior-grade resin/filler for smaller areas, and seal/prime the repair for weather protection. The cause is known: rainwater drips from the balcony above and unfortunately the underlying structural issue cannot currently be rectified. If a simple, inexpensive flashing/protection could help shed water away from the repair, I’m happy to consider it. Please state what repair you propose and your fixed all-inclusive price for that scope. I’m happy to do the final topcoat painting myself to keep costs down.

Great communication. Reliable. Did exactly as he promised with no fuss. Recommend!

Carpenter/joiner to build bespoke fitted units.

£1,500

Widmore, Greater London

28th Sep 2026

Looking for an experienced carpenter/joiner to build bespoke fitted units in our dining/living room, similar to the attached AI mock-ups. We’d like fitted cabinetry incorporating: - Floor-to-ceiling cupboards/wardrobes - Open shelving - Lower cupboards - Traditional/Shaker-style detailing to suit the period of the house - Units fitted neatly around the existing walls, skirting and cornicing - Ideally integrated warm lighting within the shelving The mock-ups show the general look and finish we’re aiming for, rather than exact dimensions/design. Looking for someone who can visit, measure up, advise on the final design and then build/install. Please send examples of similar fitted joinery you’ve completed and an indication of cost.

Carpenter/joiner needed for 3 fitted wardrobe/cupboard areas

£1,500

Brockley, Greater London, SE4

26th Sep 2026

We’re looking for an experienced carpenter/joiner to help with 3 fitted storage projects in our Victorian flat: 1. Bedroom cupboard – PAX internals + new doors We have an existing built-in cupboard and would like to improve the storage using IKEA PAX carcasses/internals if suitable. The current sliding/overlapping doors are heavy and restrict access, so we’d like to replace these with more practical doors and would welcome advice on the best arrangement. 2. Bespoke boiler cupboard An alcove beside the chimney breast contains the boiler/pipework. We’d like to replace the existing cupboard/open shelving with a neat fitted cupboard with traditional painted Shaker-style doors. This will likely need to be bespoke and must retain suitable boiler access/clearances for servicing. We’d like it to stop below the existing Victorian cornicing rather than extend to the ceiling. 3. Hallway – fitted IKEA PAX We’d like PAX carcasses/internals with standard IKEA doors (or bespoke if advisable), neatly fitted so they feel integrated rather than freestanding. We haven’t ordered the PAX systems yet. We can provide approximate measurements and inspiration images. Ideally looking for someone experienced in fitted wardrobes/bespoke joinery and PAX adaptations. Please let us know if you’ve done similar work, can make bespoke Shaker doors, and have photos of previous projects. Budget is indicative as the spaces haven’t yet been measured and final scope needs agreeing. Happy to discuss pricing. IKEA components can be purchased separately by us. Thanks!

Carpenter/joiner to design & replace courtyard cupboard doors

£500

Clapham Junction, Greater London, SW11

26th Sep 2026

I’m looking for an experienced carpenter/joiner to replace the existing double doors to a built-in storage cupboard in our London courtyard. The existing doors are old, basic timber/board construction with black strap hinges and hardware. They’re functional but tired and I’d like to replace them with something much smarter and more attractive, while keeping the character of the courtyard. I’m open to design ideas from someone with good joinery experience — I’d particularly like advice on the best style and materials for an external/semi-external courtyard environment. What I’m looking for * Remove and dispose of the existing doors * Measure the opening accurately * Design and build two new cupboard doors * Supply suitable exterior/semi-exterior timber/materials * Fit new hinges, catches/handles and other hardware * Ideally retain a traditional/laternal courtyard / period-style look, but with a clean, high-quality finish * Prepare and paint/stain the doors, or leave ready for painting if agreed * Ensure the doors are properly aligned and open/close easily * Make good any minor areas around the frame as required Design ideas I’m not fixed on simply reproducing the existing doors. I’d be interested in options such as: * Traditional ledged-and-braced timber doors * Vertical timber/plank doors with a more contemporary finish * Framed/panelled joinery * A simple painted timber design with black period-style hardware The cupboard is in a courtyard which is partly covered but exposed to outdoor conditions, so the construction needs to be suitable for this environment and resist moisture/weathering. I can provide photos and measurements, and would ideally like the carpenter to visit and measure up before finalising the design. Location: Clapham, London SW11 Budget: Please quote — happy to consider different options depending on design/materials. Please include examples/photos of similar external doors, garden doors, cupboards or traditional joinery you have made.
