Carpentry is a skilled trade and a craft in which the primary work performed is the cutting, shaping and installation of building materials during the construction of buildings, ships, timber bridges, concrete formwork, etc.
Carpentry/Joinery
Carpentry and joinery are both construction trades. In its most simplest and traditional sense, joiners ‘join’ wood in a workshop, whereas carpenters construct the building elements on-site. But, carpenters normally work on site, so their specialised skill is in dealing wood fixtures in the context of an ongoing job.
Common jobs for joiners include:
Making doors/ window frames
Creating fitted furniture
Building stairs
Common jobs for carpenters include:
Fitting floors
Fitting staircases
Fixing window frames
Installing cupboards and shelving
