Question 1

How much does carpentry cost in London?

Accepted Answer

Generally, if you were to hire a carpenter on an hourly rate, you'd be looking at £25 per hour or a day rate usually comes out to £180, but the most common pricing is on a per job basis. This could range from £180 for laying wooden flooring to £1,400 to build and install a large garden fence, but can climb even higher once bespoke furniture and storage solutions come into play. The more technical skill, time and effort is required, the higher the price will be.

Question 2

What's the difference between carpentry and joinery?

Accepted Answer

When it comes to carpentry and joinery, they re very similar trades, they both work with wood, they both create items for everyday use and they both work for consumer and trade contracts. The differences come in the finer points of what they do. Joiners work in the 'shop', joining the finer pieces of wood together and carpenters work on-site, in homes and businesses to install the finished products. Our team of carpenters and joiners can do both!

Question 3

What is carpentry and joinery?

Accepted Answer

Joinery is the shaping of wood for whatever purpose you need. It involves the building of anything wooden for your home or office. This can include doors and window frames, bookcases, wardrobes, staircases, wood furniture, conservatories & architectural fittings including skirting boards, timber frame buildings and shop fitting among other things. We can complete this to your complete satisfaction as we are the best carpenters London offer!

Carpentry is the installation and maintenance of anything created by a joiner, as well as the building of anything on-site for structural purposes, such as joisted floors. South London Carpenters are also the ones that normally appear at your door when you have a wood-related emergency!
