A typical day or week as our apprentice carpenter:

  • Start on site alongside our small, experienced team — you'll get stuck in from the off, assisting with the preparation and setup of extensions, new builds, loft conversions,renovation and refurbishment projects, learning how a professional job is planned and run from the ground up.
  • Assist with first and second fix carpentry tasks — from stud walling, door frames and skirting boards to fitting staircases, window boards and internal doors, you'll work through the full range of tasks that make up a residential or commercial refurb.
  • Learn to measure, mark out and cut timber accurately — under close supervision you'll develop core skills with hand tools and power tools, building the precision and confidence that every good carpenter relies on.
  • Support the team with all aspects of site carpentry including first fix and second fix — no two refurbs are the same, so you'll encounter a variety of materials and challenges that keep the work interesting and your skills growing week on week.
  • Pick up the professional habits that matter on site — safe tool handling, keeping a tidy workspace, communicating with the team and understanding how to read drawings and schedules are all part of what you'll learn alongside the practical craft.
  • Gradually take on more responsibility as your skills develop — by the end of your apprenticeship you'll be confidently contributing to projects rather than just assisting, with a strong foundation to build a long career on.
