carpentry
Straight, plumb, code-compliant framing for new builds, extensions and structural alterations, set out to AS 1684 and ready to pass inspection first time. We work in MGP pine, LVL and hardwood, and start within three days of your approval.
The two carpentry stages that turn a frame into a finished house: weathertight at lock-up, then doors, skirting, architraves and robes at fix. One carpenter across both stages, priced per stage, on site within three days.
Timber and composite decks built on a substructure designed to outlast the boards: H3 and H4 timber, joists at 450mm centres, posts in stirrups on poured footings. Honest advice on merbau, spotted gum or composite, and a repair quote before a rebuild one.
Open pergolas, battened shade structures, roofed verandahs and carports built for Melbourne's west sun and winter rain. Posts in stirrups on poured footings, beams sized to the span, and honest permit advice before you commit rather than after.
Rotten weatherboards replaced board by board with the profile matched, or a full re-clad in timber, fibre cement or aluminium. We fix the cause behind the boards, not just the boards, and we tell you when a patch will do.
Hebel PowerPanel, PowerBlock and PowerFloor installed to specification across Melbourne's south-east, with the jointing and surface prep that stops render cracking later. Strong on fire rating, acoustics and thermal performance for tight infill sites.
Internal and external doors, timber and aluminium windows, sliders and stackers installed, flashed and hung to lock on day one. We also repair sticking doors and rotted window frames rather than replacing the whole unit.
Skirting, architraves, reveals and decorative mouldings installed with scribed internal corners and proper mitres, in MDF, pine or solid timber. We match original profiles on period homes rather than fitting the nearest thing available.
Solid timber, engineered, hybrid and laminate flooring installed over a subfloor we have actually checked and repaired first. Moisture testing, levelling, squeak and joist repairs, then a floor laid with the expansion gaps it needs.
Straight, L-shaped and winder staircases built and installed with balustrades in timber, wire, aluminium or glass, set out to National Construction Code rise, going and gap requirements. We also repair creaking treads and loose balustrades.
Timber paling, Colorbond, picket and custom fencing with posts set a minimum 600mm deep, plus gates and automatic gate installs. We repair leaning fences and replace individual posts rather than pushing you into a full rebuild.
Full bathroom and kitchen renovations with the carpentry done by us and every other trade coordinated by us. Strip-out, framing, structural changes, cabinetry and fit-off, with AS 3740 waterproofing certified before a tile goes down.
Sagging floors, rotted bearers, termite-damaged framing and load-bearing walls that need to come out. We diagnose the cause under the house before we quote the fix, so the repair holds instead of returning in a year.
ABOUT US
Reliable carpentry
StickBuild Construction is a Caulfield-based carpentry and renovation company run by Umer Sharif, who has spent more than ten years on residential and commercial sites across Melbourne. Speed and transparency are what the business is built on, and that shows in how a job actually runs. We visit your site the same day you call, hand over an itemised written quote with labour and materials separated, and have a carpenter on the tools within three days of you accepting it. Where a repair will genuinely do the job, we say so rather than selling you a full rebuild, because most rotted weatherboards, sagging decks and leaning fences do not need to be replaced end to end. Our work covers house framing, lock-up and fix, decking and pergolas, timber and composite decking, cladding and weatherboards, Hebel installation, windows and doors, skirting and architraves, flooring, stairs, fencing, bathroom and kitchen renovations, structural timber repairs, insurance repairs, property maintenance, NDIS and home modifications, commercial carpentry, and 24/7 emergency make-safe repairs. We work across Caulfield, Armadale, Bentleigh, Bentleigh East, Brighton East, Carnegie, Elsternwick, Elwood, Glen Huntly, Glen Iris, Malvern East, McKinnon, Murrumbeena, Ormond and Toorak, and every job is covered by $20 million public liability insurance.

carpentry
Caulfield is where StickBuild Construction is based, and it is about as mixed a carpentry catchment as Melbourne offers. Within a few streets you have Edwardian and interwar homes on timber stumps with original mouldings worth matching, post-war brick veneer with tired trim and doors that stick every winter, and a steady wave of townhouse and apartment infill needing framing, lock-up and fix from scratch. The rental belt around Monash University's Caulfield campus and Caulfield Racecourse adds a constant flow of maintenance and end-of-lease make-good on top. Glen Eira's heritage overlay covers parts of Caulfield North, so replacement weatherboards, mouldings and fencing sometimes have to match a profile rather than a catalogue. We work the whole range, from a single dropped door to a full extension frame. Call 0468 347 781.
Armadale is period-home carpentry with a narrow-lot problem attached. The suburb is built around single and double-fronted Victorian terraces with cast-iron lacework, remnant timber workers' cottages in the streets off High Street, and grand homes through the Redcourt Avenue and Union Street heritage precincts. Almost all of it sits under Stonnington's heritage overlay, which means replacement mouldings, weatherboards, verandah timber and front fencing have to match what is already there rather than what is easy to buy. The other constant is access, because many Armadale lots have no side gate and everything has to come through the house or up a rear bluestone lane. We plan both into the quote rather than discovering them on day one. Call 0468 347 781.
Bentleigh is an extension suburb, and the carpentry follows from that. The housing is largely 1950s brick and weatherboard sitting on generous blocks, which is exactly the combination that makes people build out the back rather than move, so rear extensions, deck and pergola work, and full internal fix-outs make up most of what we do here. Two local factors decide how those jobs run. The first is Class H reactive clay, common through this part of Glen Eira, which moves footings seasonally and shows up as sticking doors, cracked cornices and heaving deck footings. The second is the Bentleigh Residential Precinct heritage overlay around parts of the suburb, which can bring an approval into a job people assumed was straightforward. Call 0468 347 781.
Bentleigh East is the extension and rebuild belt of this catchment, and the reason is simple: big post-war blocks and no train station. Families who want more space here almost always build rather than move, which makes it the suburb where we do the most rear extensions, decks, pergolas, carports and full internal fix-outs. The housing is predominantly post-war brick veneer and weatherboard on wide frontages, much of it now at the age where the subfloor, the fascia and the original trim all need attention at once. Class H reactive clay runs through the area, so footings, deck posts and door frames all have seasonal ground movement to contend with. Being car-dependent, it is also a carport and driveway-structure suburb. Call 0468 347 781.
Brighton East is Edwardian and interwar housing on consistent, well-treed blocks, and the tree canopy is the local factor that decides more carpentry jobs here than anything else. Mature root systems lift fence lines, push deck footings and complicate anything with a post in the ground, while the same canopy keeps subfloors and south elevations damp through winter. Add salt-laden air off Port Phillip Bay a couple of kilometres west, which is hard on exterior timber, coatings and fixings, and you get a suburb where external carpentry needs to be specified properly rather than built to a standard detail. Bayside's heritage overlay covers parts of the area, so profile matching on weatherboards, windows and front fencing regularly comes into play. Call 0468 347 781.
Carnegie is two carpentry markets stacked on the same postcode. On one side sit the interwar bungalows through the residential streets, now at the age where subfloors, original trim, doors and weatherboards all want attention. On the other sits the dense apartment and townhouse development that has followed the elevated rail line, which brings balcony timber, balustrade compliance, internal fit-outs and make-good work of a completely different kind. The Caulfield to Dandenong line was raised above Carnegie in 2018, and the Koornang Road strip below it carries the shopfronts and tenancies that give us commercial fitout and partition work as well. Whether it is a hundred-year-old bungalow or a fifth-floor balcony, we quote it itemised and start within three days. Call 0468 347 781.
