Carpentry and joinery is a major part of any new build or renovation project, and without carpenters, there wouldn’t be fixed doors window frames, partitions, staircases and joist coverings.
It’s all about installing fixing components into a property, and forming the structure of the property, but it certainly requires a great deal of skill. You have to be able to extract information from drawings and specifications, whilst working to the safety guidelines.
Usually there is not a large team of carpenters on a particular project, and it can only take a small team and several weeks to form the main structure of a particular property. The more senior carpenters will be able to create complex roofs, hips and valleys, which are all areas of structural carcassing.
