What’s the difference between a carpenter and a joiner?
The terms “carpenters” and “joiners” are often used interchangeably when searching for carpenters near me. In short, joiners are more focused on the creation of wooden structures such as door frames, windows and staircases in a workshop. The product is then distributed for installation, which is usually completed by a carpenter.
From a Houzz Professional
James Read from JackJames Furniture explains in further detail: “A carpenter works exclusively on-site. They would be covering first and second fix, so putting up walls and roofs, then installing joinery.
A joiner is based in the workshop constructing joinery – doors, windows and anything technical that needs the controlled environment of the workshop to be built in.”
