    John was upfront, and honest about recommending the right, not a short-cut solution. The fact he was busy and could not do it within a week (to us) was a good sign of the quality of his work. He and his team delivered a first class job and I would recommend them to anyone seeking a quality job. Thanks John for your professionalism and craftmanship.

    John replaced my external rear stairs. An excellent job where I could not fault workmanship. Left the site spotless. Further he used hardwood as opposed to pine, which others use. Overall very happy with the result and I have no hesitation in recommending Better Carpentry for any timber job.

    John's attention to detail and workmanship are outstanding and not often found today. A set of straight steel stringer stairs at the front of a Queenslander was rebuilt in hardwood in an L shaped configuration. They look fabulous, will last decades given the quality of the materials used and I could not be happier - I highly recommend John for your next stair project.

Carpentry costs & guides

Frequently asked questions

How much do carpenters typically charge?
Carpentry costs vary widely depending on the job. Simple trim or door hanging is usually less than internal framing, small outdoor structures or timber repairs that require more labour and materials. Most carpenters charge a call-out fee plus an hourly labour rate, with after-hours work attracting higher rates; this page shows live local pricing to help you compare quotes.
Do carpenters charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and typically cover travel and the initial assessment. These fees are usually charged separately from hourly labour and materials. After-hours attendance is often charged at a higher rate, so confirm any call-out or minimum fees when requesting quotes.
Do carpenters need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Carpentry work is generally required to be carried out by a licensed tradesperson in every Australian state and territory. In NSW, licences are administered by Building Commission NSW (formerly NSW Fair Trading). You should expect providers to display a valid state building or trade licence on quotes and advertising, and to hold an ABN, public liability insurance and industry memberships such as HIA or Master Builders.
Does Better Carpentry have a verified ABN?
Yes. Better Carpentry has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
