Frequently Asked Questions About Joinery

What’s the difference between joinery and carpentry?

While both involve working with wood, joinery typically focuses on more precise, detailed work that involves joining wood without nails, screws or adhesives where possible. Joiners often work in a workshop creating components, while carpenters typically assemble or install on site. At LC Carpentry, we provide both services, with our joinery expertise allowing us to create custom pieces that perfectly fit your space.

What types of timber do you use for joinery projects?

We select timber based on the specific requirements of each project. For painted finishes, we often use high-grade softwoods like pine or spruce. For natural finishes, we offer hardwoods such as oak, walnut, maple, and cherry. We’re happy to discuss the benefits of different woods for your specific project, considering factors like durability, appearance, and budget.

How long do custom joinery projects typically take?

The timeline depends on the complexity and scale of the project. Simple door hanging might take just a day, while custom cabinetry for an entire kitchen could take 2-3 weeks from design to installation. During our initial consultation, we’ll provide a realistic timeline based on your specific requirements and our current schedule.

Can you match existing joinery in my home?

Yes, we specialize in matching existing joinery, which is particularly important in period properties or when extending existing installations. Our skilled joiners can replicate moldings, door styles, and other joinery details to create seamless additions that look like they’ve always been part of your home.

Do you offer joinery repair services?

Absolutely. We provide expert repair services for all types of joinery, from fixing damaged doors and windows to restoring antique furniture. Our approach prioritizes preserving original features where possible, while ensuring the repaired item is fully functional and structurally sound.

How do you ensure the quality of your joinery work?

Quality is ensured through several approaches: 1) We use only premium materials suited to each project, 2) Our joiners have extensive training and qualifications, 3) We employ traditional joinery techniques proven to withstand the test of time, 4) We maintain workshop conditions that prevent warping and other issues, and 5) We conduct multiple quality checks before, during, and after installation.
