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.

Custom wood veneer wardrobe

£1,000

Fitzrovia, Greater London

27th Jun 2022

This is a listing to discuss a large task for multiple custom made furniture items, so please read through. Date is ASAP but all items aren’t expected to be completed by this date - that date is more for discussion purposes. I require an experienced joinery / carpenter for the following custom pieces to optimise storage space in my small London flat. I already have technical drawings and measurements for each piece. (Airtasker does not allow me to upload documents or many photos, so the few images are far from complete and just some initial reference). I add a few more images with notes in the “comments” below. A previously engaged joinery specialist was unable to deliver due to issues on his end, which has left me in a very unfortunate situation without proper storage space to unpack my belongings into in order to feel fully settled and comfortable in my new home. While I need storage as soon as possible, these are the pieces required in order of timing priority for delivery: 1 x small bathroom vanity in wood veneer with fluting detail (the inset bathroom basin is already on site) 1 x bedroom wardrobe 1 x living room cupboard 1 x media unit / wall shelving 1 x desk with drawers (option to make this freestanding) The flat is in a mews with parking out front to make it easy to load and unload materials. If you are interested, please: - have photos available of example work you have done that is similar in both high quality MDF and wood veneer - if we discuss, then later be able to to provide references from previous clients and share any other information about your work Thank you very much. - Due date: Before Tuesday, 5 July 2022 - Due date: Flexible
