About Carpenter Canberra
Decks, pergolas, doors and timber repairs for Canberra homes.
Decks, doors and timber repairs in Canberra homes
Most of Canberra's suburbs were built from the 1960s on, and their timber is now at the age where decks need boards, doors stick and sills go soft. We build low decks and pergolas, hang and replace doors, fit robes and trims, and repair timber in homes from Gungahlin to Tuggeranong.
We work on the carpentry that doesn't need a building approval in the ACT. When a job does need one, such as a higher or roofed deck, an extension or a structural repair, we'll say so plainly: that work needs a licensed ACT builder.
How we work
Approval question first
Before quoting, we check whether the job is exempt from building approval under the ACT rules, and whether the home's age means asbestos has to be identified first.
Price and scope in writing
After seeing the job or photos of it, we put the price, the materials and what's included in writing before work starts. Extras are agreed before they're done.
Sourced prices and ACT rules
Our guides show published prices with who publishes them, and ACT rules linked to the government pages they come from.

Describe the job, the size or quantity, and where it is on the property. Photos help, and mention if the home was built before 2003.
