Questions before contact

Useful answers for this scope.

Is an internal wall non-structural?+

It should not be assumed. Structure and concealed services need appropriate review.

Can carpentry include storage?+

Storage and joinery can be discussed, with design, dimensions, materials and finish confirmed as scope items.

Do wall changes need approvals?+

Requirements depend on the property and work; the correct pathway is checked after the proposed change is understood.

Can a new partition include a door opening?+

It can be discussed as one scope, with framing, door type, clearances, hardware, adjoining finishes and any services checked together.

What affects a partition or carpentry quote?+

Dimensions, framing or joinery complexity, materials, structural and service checks, access, finish and connected trades all affect scope.

What if electrical or plumbing services cross the proposed wall?+

Do not disturb them. Their location and the appropriate licensed-trade pathway need to be identified before the wall scope is finalised.
