Service breakdown

What we repair, and who it's for

General & Structural Carpentry Repairs
01

General & Structural Carpentry Repairs

Structural problems show up as symptoms: a sticking door, a sloping floor, a bouncy hallway. We trace it back and put it right.

What's included

  • Structural framing repairs and reinforcement
  • Subfloor timber, bearer and joist repairs
  • Sagging floor and ceiling correction
  • Wall, beam and lintel repairs
  • Load-bearing assessment before cosmetic work
  • Post and pile repairs and replacement

Ideal for

Sloping floors, sticking doors, recurring cracks. Structural timber flagged in a builder’s report. Landlords and property managers.

Window & Door Joinery Repairs
02

Window & Door Joinery Repairs

Timber windows and doors move with the seasons. Sticking, draughty or a frame giving way isn’t normal — we repair rather than replace wherever the timber allows.

What's included

  • Sash window repairs and cord/weight replacement
  • Sliding and casement window joinery repairs
  • Timber and French door repairs and re-hanging
  • Frame, sill and jamb rot repair and splicing
  • Hardware repairs — hinges, locks, catches
  • Draught-proofing, weatherstripping and reglazing

Ideal for

Villa and bungalow joinery worth preserving. Draughts and moisture for Healthy Homes compliance. Doors and windows that won’t close, lock or seal.

Decks, Fences & Outdoor Timber Structures
03

Decks, Fences & Outdoor Timber Structures

Deck repairs in Auckland start underneath. Joists, posts and bearers go well before the boards show it, so we check what’s holding the structure up.

What's included

  • Deck board, joist and bearer replacement
  • Post and pile repairs, including concrete footings
  • Balustrade and handrail repairs to current code
  • Fence post replacement and panel repairs
  • Pergola and outdoor structure repairs
  • Structural safety checks on ageing decks

Ideal for

Spongy or bouncy decks. Vendors and agents making outdoor areas safe before listing. Deck and fence repairs built for tenant use.

Rotten Timber & Weathertightness Repairs
04

Rotten Timber & Weathertightness Repairs

The repair most people put off, and the costliest to ignore. A soft patch on a weatherboard is rarely isolated. Our rotten timber repairs find the full extent, fix the moisture source, and replace timber properly.

What's included

  • Rotten weatherboard, fascia and barge board replacement
  • Window and door frame rot repair and timber splicing
  • Moisture source identification — so the repair holds
  • Subfloor and structural timber rot replacement
  • Flashings and weathertightness detailing
  • Full timber matching for a seamless repair

Ideal for

Soft, spongy or discoloured exterior timber. Weathertightness issues flagged in a pre-purchase inspection. Older weatherboard or monolithic-clad homes.

Custom Joinery & Cabinetry
05

Custom Joinery & Cabinetry

Sometimes it’s not a repair — it’s a rebuild done properly, or a custom piece off-the-shelf can’t match. Our Auckland joiners build to the space.

What's included

  • Custom timber windows and French doors
  • Built-in cabinetry, wardrobes and shelving
  • Vanity units and bathroom joinery
  • Skirting, architrave and trim matched to existing profiles
  • Staircase and balustrade joinery
  • Bespoke timber features and detailing

Ideal for

Period features that need matching, not replacing. Awkward or non-standard spaces. Anyone told “that profile isn’t made anymore” — we cut it to match.

Landlord & Compliance Carpentry Repairs
06

Landlord & Compliance Carpentry Repairs

Rental compliance comes back to timber condition — draughts, moisture, structural safety. We handle the carpentry side of Healthy Homes compliance and tenancy repairs, documented.

What's included

  • Draught-stopping for Healthy Homes compliance
  • Door and window repairs for compliance sign-off
  • Deck, balcony and balustrade safety repairs
  • Insurance-related timber repair and reinstatement
  • Between-tenancy carpentry repairs and touch-ups
  • Documented condition reports where required

Ideal for

Healthy Homes deadlines. Property managers with multiple properties. Timber-damage insurance claims needing a report-ready assessment.

Not sure which category your job falls under?

Most people aren't, and that's fine. Tell us what's going on. We'll tell you honestly whether it's a repair or a replacement, and give you an accurate estimate before anything starts. No obligation.

How it works

Four steps from “something's not right” to sorted

  1. Tell us what’s going on.

    A quick call, message or form — or send photos.

  2. We assess and estimate.

    A qualified carpenter checks what you can’t see — the rot, the structural cause — and gives you a clear estimate. No obligation.

  3. We do the work, properly.

    Same carpenter start to finish. Timber matched, hardware sorted, site left clean.

  4. Sign-off you can trust.

    A repair that holds up — and a team you’ll call next time.
