What to know about Finish carpentry
Finish carpentry, known on most Australian sites as fix-out or second fix, is everything that happens after the plasterboard is up and before the painter arrives. Doors hung and their furniture fitted, architraves and skirting cut and mitred, window reveals lined, shelving and robe interiors installed, stairs trimmed, and the hundred small mouldings and scribes that decide whether a room reads as finished or as nearly finished.

How to choose finish carpenters in Upper Kedron
- Choose a carpenter whose past work matches your project, whether that's framing, trim, built-ins, stairs or a deck.
- Ask for drawings or a clear description of what will be built, including materials and finishes.
- For decks, stairs and railings, ask whether a permit is needed, since these are safety items.
- Get a written quote that says who supplies materials and whether finishing, such as painting or staining, is included.
- Ask how they'll handle surprises like rot or uneven walls and floors.
