What does a carpenter do?

Whether you’re planning a major renovation on your home or you simply want to make things look a bit nicer, hiring a carpenter can help you with many different tasks. 

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 plasterwork. 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. 

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. 

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 focussed 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 the small end. 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, there’s someone nearby who can help.

IKEA PAX wardrobe assembly

£180

Wayfield, Kent

25th Mar 2021

I'm interested in booking in to have a PAX wardrobe system built, but also need a small hole cut in the back of one of the carcasses before fixing to the wall as there is a plug and for it to be able to sit flush to the wall for securing, a small part of the skirting board (to the length of the wardrobe) would need to be cut and removed. 200x236 is the dimensions, with some drawer for the inside too. I am in Chatham, not Wayfield, but for some reason it keeps saying that on the task, so please bear that in mind!

Nathan provided an amazing service and went above and beyond to complete the task to a high standard. There was clear communication before he arrived which eased my mind and even when he faced a few issues whilst assembling (my house has quirky angles and it was tight space!), he worked until it was finished to a high standard. Over the moon, would definitely recommend and if I need anything else I know who to contact!
