Carpentry in South East
Knut is preparing carpentry coverage in South East. Requests and bookings open at launch.
Carpentry jobs you can request
Carpentry covers a range of work around a property. You can request help with doors, including work to a door that needs attention, or trim such as the finishing pieces around a room. Framing and decking are also listed services, as is cabinetry repair. If you are unsure how to describe the work, explain what is damaged, unfinished or needs changing rather than trying to name a technical repair. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties.
How to brief a carpentry job
Give a clear description of what needs doing, the job location and when you would like the work done. For a door, trim or cabinetry repair, note what is not working or what needs attention. For framing or decking, explain the scope you have in mind and identify any parts that need to be included. Photos can help show the condition and extent of the work, if they are useful. Knut sends your request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service, so useful details can help them understand the job.
Costs and Knut’s booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 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. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Review the quote and the booking fee before you book so you understand the separate payments.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Compare the quotes Knut receives and consider how well each one fits the job you described. Check that the quote reflects the work you want done, and ask the tradie about anything 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. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Knut connects customers with independent local tradies; it does not carry out the carpentry work itself.
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.
