Carpenter and joiner — Professionals

Joinery leads often need more design and measurement work than a standard installation job. Providers should establish whether the task is repair, site carpentry or workshop-made joinery, and should confirm dimensions, materials, hardware, finish, access and any need for a final site measure before production.

Service scope

Carpentry and joinery services cover made-to-measure and fitted timber work, interior joinery, repairs and installation of timber components. The scope can involve workshop manufacture, site fitting, hardware, finishes and accurate measurement before production.

What is normally included

  • Making bespoke furniture
  • Fitting or adjusting doors and hardware
  • Planning and fitting built-in storage
  • Repairing timber components
  • Installing worktops and interior joinery

What is not included

  • Major structural engineering outside the agreed carpentry scope
  • Tree work or raw timber production
  • Furniture upholstery or non-joinery specialist finishes

Qualification checks

  • Determine whether work is bespoke manufacture, fitting or repair
  • Review dimensions, sketches and photos
  • Confirm material, hardware and finish specification
  • Plan final site measurement before manufacture where needed
  • Clarify delivery, access and installation responsibilities

Quote guidance

Separate design or measurement, materials, workshop manufacture, finishing and installation where that helps the customer understand the scope. State whether hardware, delivery and final adjustment are included and identify any dimensions that remain provisional until a site measure.

Lead risks

  • Provisional dimensions can invalidate a fixed manufacturing price
  • Material or hardware substitutions can affect appearance and cost
  • Site walls, floors or openings may be out of square
