CARPENTRY QUESTIONS

Carpentry: common questions

What does a carpenter do that a handyman doesn’t?
Our carpenters are trade qualified, so the work goes past small fixes: decks, pergolas, framing, doors and windows, weatherboards and joinery. For the small list around the house, our home maintenance page covers the handyman side.
Can one team do the painting, plastering and tiling too?
Yes. Painting, plastering and tiling are done alongside our carpentry, so a job is finished by one team instead of waiting on three more.
Do you do small jobs?
Yes. A shelf, a door, a few boards or a list of odd jobs. Small jobs are quoted per job, and a photo often lets us price them before we come out.
Where do you work?
Geelong, the Surf Coast, the Bellarine and Golden Plains. Pick your town below to see the work we do there.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry $20 million public liability, and our team is police checked.
