Frequently asked questions

How much does a carpenter cost?

Carpenters charge by the hour, by the day, or per project for defined jobs like built-ins. Rates vary with specialisation: rough/framing carpentry is priced into construction budgets, while finish carpentry (trim, doors, built-ins) commands higher hourly rates for slower, more precise work.

Can a carpenter fix rotten or water-damaged wood?

Yes — splice repairs, resin treatments and section replacement are standard work. But rot is a symptom: the leak or damp source must be fixed first or the repair fails. A good carpenter will point at the water source before quoting the timber fix.

How do I get an accurate carpentry quote?

Photos plus measurements get you a ballpark; a site visit gets you a real number. Specify materials, finish (painted, stained, veneer) and hardware up front — 'a shelf' can cost 5x more in walnut with soft-close fittings than in painted MDF.

How much do built-in wardrobes or shelving cost?

Custom built-ins are priced by the linear metre/foot and complexity — an alcove shelving unit costs far less than a floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobe with doors and internals. Materials (MDF vs veneer vs solid timber) can swing the price by 2-3x for the same footprint.

What jobs does a carpenter typically handle?

Door hanging and adjustment, skirting/trim and architraves, custom shelving and built-in wardrobes, stair repairs, timber framing, decking frames, stud walls, and repair of rot or damaged timber. Anything cut and fitted from wood on site is carpentry territory.

What does custom carpentry cost in Hong Kong?

Built-in wardrobes typically run HKD 1,000-2,500 per foot run depending on materials and whether fabrication is local or cross-border. Whole-flat packages for small flats commonly land between HKD 40,000-150,000.
