Carpentry Services Melbourne
Carpentry covers a wide range of work, and most Melbourne properties need several kinds of it over time. On the smaller end, there are carpentry repairs — a door that won't close, a rotted piece of trim, skirting boards damaged during a renovation. In the middle sit installations: doors hung, vanities and cabinets fitted, skirting boards and architraves installed.
Larger again are built-ins and renovation carpentry — wardrobes and storage built to fit a room exactly, and the framing, wall linings and structural timber work that sit behind a bathroom or kitchen renovation. For commercial properties, we also carry out shopfront and general commercial carpentry. Outdoors, that extends to decking, deck repairs, pergolas and outdoor timber work.
MMR handles that full spread as a residential and commercial carpenter working across Melbourne. For broader property upkeep that goes beyond carpentry, our handyman and maintenance service covers general repairs — this page is for customers who specifically need a carpenter.
What We Build, Repair & Install
The carpentry work we're most often asked to take on across Melbourne — repairs first where a repair makes sense, and quality installation and construction work where it doesn't.
General Carpentry
Day-to-day carpentry work for homes and businesses — repairs, adjustments, fitting and fixing, from a single sticking door through to a full list of jobs around the property.
Built-In Wardrobes & Storage
Built-in wardrobes, cupboards and storage built to fit the space properly — measured, built and installed on site so everything lines up with your walls and ceiling.
Cabinetry & Vanity Installation
Cabinet and vanity installation for bathrooms, laundries and kitchens — including flat-pack and pre-finished units set level, fixed securely and fitted out cleanly.
Doors & Door Installation
Internal door installation, door fitting and door replacement — new doors hung, existing doors adjusted, and hinges, handles and locks replaced. We also repair sticking or dropped doors so they open and close properly.
Skirting Boards & Architraves
Skirting boards and architraves supplied and installed, or damaged sections repaired and replaced — mitred, fixed and caulked ready for paint.
Timber Repairs & Framing
Timber repairs and framing work — rotted or damaged timber cut out and replaced, wall and partition framing, and structural carpentry during renovations and alterations.
Decking & Deck Repairs
Deck repairs and decking work — loose or rotted boards replaced, framing and fixings attended to, and new decking installed where the existing deck has reached the end of its life.
Pergolas & Outdoor Timber
Pergola repairs and outdoor timber work — posts, beams and battens repaired or replaced, and new pergola and outdoor timber structures built to suit the space.
Renovation & Alteration Carpentry
The carpentry side of renovations and alterations — framing, wall linings, bath and vanity installation, and the timber work that sits behind a finished room.
Commercial & Shopfront Carpentry
Carpentry for shops, offices and commercial properties — shopfront boarding and make-safe work, fit-out carpentry, doors, and general commercial timber work.
Built-In Wardrobes, Cabinetry & Vanities
Built-in storage only works well when it's built for the room. MMR builds and installs built-in wardrobes, cupboards and storage across Melbourne — measured and built on site so the finished unit sits cleanly against walls and ceiling, rather than a near-enough flat-pack compromise.
On the cabinetry side, we install bathroom vanities, laundry cabinets and similar pre-finished units — set level, fixed securely and fitted out neatly. The vanity installation pictured here is genuine MMR work, and the completed bathroom further down this page shows the same attention to the carpentry and installation side of a renovation.
Whether it's a single vanity or a full wall of built-in wardrobes, the approach is the same: measure properly, install it straight, and leave it ready to use.
Renovation & Alteration Carpentry
Behind every finished renovation is a lot of carpentry most people never see — wall and partition framing, wall linings, bath installation, and the setting-out that cabinetry and vanities depend on. MMR carries out that carpentry component of renovation and alteration work across Melbourne.
The photo here shows a completed Melbourne bathroom where we handled the carpentry and installation side — the framing and wall linings earlier in the job, and the vanity, cabinetry and bath installation that the finished room is built around. Specialist trades such as plumbing and electrical are coordinated separately where required.
Because we also handle broader renovation and maintenance work, the carpentry can be scheduled as part of a larger job rather than coordinated trade-by-trade by you.
Timber Repairs & Framing
Timber repairs are about dealing with damage properly rather than covering it up — rotted or damaged timber cut back to sound material and replaced, and the cause of the damage identified so the repair lasts. It's the practical alternative to replacing entire structures when only sections have failed.
On the framing side, MMR carries out timber framing for renovations, alterations and repairs — wall and partition framing, openings and structural carpentry work, like the framing pictured here from a genuine MMR project.
If you're not sure whether damaged timberwork can be repaired, that's exactly what the assessment is for — we'll tell you straight whether repair or replacement is the right call.
Commercial & Shopfront Carpentry
Commercial properties need a carpenter who can respond practically — whether that's shopfront boarding and make-safe work after damage, fit-out carpentry, door installation, or general timber work around shops, offices and tenancies.
MMR carries out commercial carpentry across Melbourne — including the completed fit-out pictured here, which involved partition walls, internal doors, timber feature work and finished wall linings. For ongoing commercial upkeep beyond carpentry, see our commercial property maintenance service.
Decking & Pergolas
Outdoor timber cops the full force of Melbourne weather, and decks and pergolas usually show it first in the boards, fixings and posts. MMR carries out deck repairs — replacing loose, cupped or rotted boards and attending to the framing and fixings underneath — and new decking where the existing structure has reached the end of its life.
Pergola work follows the same logic: posts, beams and battens repaired or replaced where the structure is otherwise sound, and new pergola and outdoor timber work where it isn't. As deck builders and repairers working across Melbourne, we'll always tell you which side of that line your structure sits on before quoting.
Send through a few photos of the deck or pergola with the quote form and we can usually give you an initial read on repair versus rebuild before a site visit.
