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.Â
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.Â
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.Â
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.

Build a cabinet and shelves
£200
Hackney, Greater London, E8
11th Jun 2022
I got the cabinet and shelves pictured second hand. Everything is in pieces and I’d like it built into my living room alcove. The cabinet isn’t one piece of furniture- it’s got sides, a top and the doors (no bottom and no back) and needs to be all put together and built into/secured into the alcove. We have carpet in this room so not sure the best way to do this hence seeking help of someone who knows what they’re doing! The shelves are actually one solid piece and will then hopefully sit on top of the cabinet once that’s secure. - Due date: Flexible

There are four large set pieces inside a storage unit in the Big Yellow Self Storage in Bow that we need cutting in half so they can be disposed of. Two of the pieces are flat wooden pieces and the other two are wood and plaster and are more scenic, reminiscent of like a rocky surface. I can supply pictures of both if need be.
