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. Carpenters take on a wide range of work, such as fixing areas of houses and building furniture from scratch.

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

Don't know what to do with all that space in your backyard? Hire a carpenter who specialises in building decks. 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

Cabinetmakers 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. Cabinetmakers 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.

Joinery

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.

Easy carpentry/DIY making drawer runner or cutting groove

£40

Denmark Hill, Greater London, SE5

21st Jul 2024

We have an old wooden dresser with drawers (see photo 1). The original drawer runners were plastic and have broken. The width of the groove in the drawer is 10mm (see photo 4) and the width of the old runner is 8mm (see photo 5). Unfortunately the only new runners available seem to have a width of 15mm (see photo 6). I therefore want the following: Either: (A) cut the groove in the drawers wider (probably 18mm) to fit the new standard runner width, or (B) make new wooden runners to match the old plastic ones that broke. I would prefer option (B). I think it would be a simple job as it’s simply sourcing the small amounts of wood, cutting them to size, and glueing. But I don’t have my tools in London. Also, the runners would need (obviously) to be fixed into the unit so that the drawers were working again, in order to finish the job! This is a fairly simple job but a little tricky to explain, so please feel free to ask any questions. For example, it would be okay to take the old broken plastic runner away and make new wooden runners off site. When I got replacements I found that the new standard gauge is too wide.

Underfloor insulation

£700

Denmark Hill, Greater London, SE5

4th Jan 2023

I need underfloor insulation installed but can't lift all of the floorboards. I need to know if this is doable without ruining the floorboards so need someone to come out and inspect for me. There are 3 rooms with suspended floors, shown in the pics are the lounge and hall. There are built in wardrobes in the bedroom and lounge which would need to be dismantled to gain access to the floor in those rooms so I'm hoping someone can get in through the hall floorboards and access the other two rooms that way. It's an 1890 property so I'm not sure if that's feasible but I understand they were all built with communication channels - Due date: Flexible
