Top 5 Questions To Ask Before You Hire A Carpenter

What Are Your Qualifications? Did You Complete an Apprenticeship?

In Victoria, a 4-year apprenticeship isn’t mandatory for carpenters. Some individuals who claim to be carpenters are merely self-taught handymen. Since most carpentry involves structural work and understanding the Building Code of Australia, ensuring your carpenter has proper training is crucial. The risk of hiring someone without formal qualifications isn’t worth it.
We at Marcelle’s Building and Carpentry are qualified female carpenters in Melbourne. We offer various services to meet your needs, including external and internal renovations, structural alterations, single—and second-story extensions, and refurbishments.

Do You Have Public Liability and Personal Accident Insurance?

A serious tradesperson will have both public liability and personal accident insurance. These insurances are vital as they cover you, the contractor, and your property in case of any accidents or damages. It’s a sign of professionalism and responsibility.

Will You Clean Up After Completing the Job?

There’s nothing worse than being left with a mess of sawdust, timber offcuts, and scattered nails, even if the carpenter has done excellent work. Cleaning up after the job should be part of the service. Ensure your carpenter commits to leaving your space as tidy as before they started.

Do You Possess the Latest National Construction Code and Timber Framing Manual?

These 2 manuals contain the Australian residential building standards, foundations, wall frames, bathrooms, fire resistance, sustainability, health, and amenities. They are updated annually; adherence is essential for residential building work. A carpenter who keeps these manuals up-to-date demonstrates professionalism and a commitment to quality.
With expertise in new builds and restoration of century-old houses, we offer a range of carpentry skills for house improvements. We’re skilled in period renovations and reviving weathered timber.

Can You Provide References from Previous Clients?

Speaking with former clients is an excellent way to gauge how a prospective carpenter operates and the quality of their work. It also allows you to ask specific questions related to your project. A dependable carpenter should readily provide contact details for at least three previous clients.
By asking these questions, you’ll ensure you hire a qualified, responsible, and professional carpenter who will meet your expectations and complete your project to a high standard.
