Carpentry in Inner East
Knut is preparing carpentry coverage in Inner East. Requests and bookings open at launch.
Carpentry jobs you can request
Carpentry covers a range of repair and building tasks. You can request help with doors, including work to make a door fit or function as needed; trim; framing; decking; and cabinetry repairs. When describing the job, explain whether you need a repair, an adjustment or new work, if you know. If several items need attention, list each one so tradies can consider the full scope when preparing quotes. Knut is newly available for carpentry in this area, and sends requests to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer the service.
How to brief a carpentry job
Describe what needs doing, where the work is, and when you would like it done. Name the item or area involved, explain the issue and say what outcome you are looking for. Photos can help show the condition or the part that needs attention, so include them if useful. For several tasks, write them as separate points rather than leaving one out of the description. A clear brief gives tradies more context to assess the work and quote. You describe the job once through Knut, then can message the tradie and follow progress in one place after booking.
Costs and Knut's booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. If you book through Knut, you pay one booking fee: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie's quoted price for the work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Check the quoted work and total details before you decide whether to book.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Compare the quotes you receive against the work you asked for. Check what each quote includes and ask the tradie to clarify any part of the scope that is unclear before booking. Some carpentry jobs need a licence or registration depending on the work and the state. Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope. The right check therefore depends on the work involved. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut for maintenance across many properties.
Knut's booking fee
Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
