Trades we supply

Carpenters

First fix, second fix, shuttering and formwork. Three fairly different trades that share a name, so being specific when you order matters.

What a good one looks like

A second fix joiner and a shuttering carpenter are not interchangeable, and sending one to do the other wastes a day for both of you. Tell us which you need and, if you are not sure, describe the work and we will tell you.

It is also where the pay rate earns its keep. Good people have a choice of sites, so the rate you set decides who is willing to take the job. We show you that rate and add £25, which means you can raise it without our margin moving with it.

How our pricing works

Cards and tickets

  • CSCS blue skilled worker card
  • NVQ Level 2 in carpentry and joinery
  • Own tools
  • Abrasive wheels where cutting is involved

What moves the rate

  • Which of the three trades is required
  • Standard of finish on second fix work
  • Whether the operative supplies power tools
  • Programme pressure and overtime

We do not publish a rate table. Pay moves with the trade, the season and the location, so any figure printed here would be wrong within a month. Ring and we will tell you what the job is genuinely paying today.
