Residential carpentry involves the construction, installation, and repair of structures within homes. This includes framing walls, building roofs, and creating custom cabinetry. Carpenters use various materials, primarily wood, to create functional and aesthetic elements in residential spaces. In addition to structural work, residential carpentry also encompasses finishing tasks such as installing doors, windows, and trim. Carpenters must possess skills in measuring, cutting, and joining materials, ensuring that all work meets safety standards and building codes. Their expertise contributes significantly to the overall quality and appearance of a home.
