Your Go-To Carpenter in Byron Bay & Northern Rivers

I do the carpentry work that most handymen won't touch, but I charge handyman rates because I don't have fancy overhead. Quality work, fair prices, no BS.

Built-in Storage Solutions

That awkward space under your stairs? The weird alcove in your bedroom? I'll build custom storage that actually uses the space properly. Built for Byron Bay homes.

Custom Shelving Systems

Floating shelves, bookcase walls, display shelving - whatever you need. I'll measure it right so it's level and secure. No wobbly DIY shelves that fall off the wall.

Decks & Outdoor Structures

New timber decks, pergolas, outdoor storage. I know what timber works in Byron Bay's coastal conditions and what fixings won't rust out in two years.

Custom Furniture

Outdoor tables, benches, coffee tables, entertainment units - built specifically for your space. Not IKEA, not Fantastic Furniture. Actual custom timber work.

Timber Feature Walls

Statement timber walls, wainscoting, and decorative wooden features that add character and warmth to your interior spaces.

Trim & Molding

Skirting boards, architraves, cornices, and decorative molding installation to add finishing touches to your renovation.

Why Byron Bay People Choose Me for Carpentry

I'm a handyman who's extremely skilled at carpentry - not a carpenter running a big carpentry business. You get quality work at competitive rates because I don't have the overheads they do.

I actually know coastal timber. Lived in Byron Bay for years. I know what timber species handle the salt air, what stains and oils actually protect outdoor work, and what fixings won't rust out. Your deck or pergola will still look good in five years.

No surprises, no upselling. I'll tell you exactly what it'll cost. If I find something during the job, I'll check with you first. No hidden fees, no "oh by the way that's extra".

Questions Everyone Asks About Carpentry

Common questions from Byron Bay to Ballina customers

How much do carpenters charge in Byron Bay?

Traditional carpenters charge $80-$120/hour or give fixed quotes on bigger jobs. I keep my rates competitive - quality work without the premium pricing. For most projects, I'll give you a custom quote based on exactly what you need.

What's the difference between you and a "real" carpenter?

Skills-wise? Nothing for the work I do. I won't frame your house or build roof trusses. But for custom built-ins, decks, pergolas, shelving, furniture? I've got the same skills, just charge less because I don't have a fancy shopfront.

What areas do you cover?

Byron Bay and everywhere within about 60km - Lennox Head, Bangalow, Mullumbimby, Ballina, Brunswick Heads, Ocean Shores, Lismore, Tweed Heads. From Suffolk Park to Wategos, Arts & Industry Estate to Tallow Beach.

How long does custom carpentry take?

Depends on the project. A simple shelf? Same day. Custom built-in wardrobes? Usually 2-3 days. A full deck? Week or two depending on size. I'll give you a realistic timeline when I quote.

Do you have examples of your carpentry work?

Absolutely. I'll show you photos of similar projects when we chat. I can also put you in touch with other Byron Bay customers if you want to hear directly from them.

Do you use sustainable timber?

Where possible and practical, yes. I'll talk you through timber options - what's sustainable, what suits your project, what fits your budget. Some projects need treated pine for outdoor use, others work great with recycled timber.
