Carpentry & alterations in Adelaide.

First- and second-fix carpentry, doors, architraves, framing and alterations across inner Adelaide.

Start with your home and what it needs.

Carpentry is at the heart of MIC Building Services. It connects a home's structure with the details you touch every day: doors that fit, finished openings and resolved junctions. MIC's services range from framing and roof structures to second-fix work and alterations in older Adelaide homes. The scope starts with understanding the existing building, not just the desired finish.

First-fix carpentry

Framing and roof structures form part of MIC's services. Existing conditions and advice from appropriate specialists may need consideration when structural work is involved.

Second-fix details

Doors, architraves and finishing work can be individual jobs or part of a renovation. Photos of profiles and adjacent rooms help explain the look you want to retain.

Openings and alterations

Changing a wall or opening can affect more than its visible surface. Discuss available plans, engineering advice where needed and how surrounding areas will be finished.

What is the difference between first- and second-fix carpentry?

First-fix carpentry generally refers to framing and structural timber work. Second-fix covers finishing elements such as doors and architraves. MIC offers both as part of its carpentry services.

Can MIC work on doors and architraves as a smaller job?

Yes. Doors, architraves and smaller carpentry repairs are included in MIC's services. Send photos and your suburb so Steve can discuss the work and current availability.

Can you create a new opening in an existing wall?

Wall openings and alterations are part of MIC's services, but suitability depends on the building. The wall's role, services within it and any need for professional assessment must be understood before settling the scope.

Can new carpentry match an older home?

Share photos and examples of existing details. Matching depends on profiles, materials and availability. Discuss the desired result and limitations before ordering materials.
