First Fix Carpentry
First fix carpentry forms the essential structural framework of any building project, and at RJC Carpentry & Joinery, established since 2023 we bring years of experience to every installation. Serving Worthing, Brighton, Goring-by-Sea, and throughout a 30-mile radius, we provide expert first fix carpentry services for new builds, extensions, conversions, and major renovation projects across West Sussex.
What is First Fix Carpentry?
First fix carpentry refers to the initial structural woodwork completed during the early stages of construction, before plastering and finishing work begins. This crucial phase includes installing the building's wooden framework, ensuring everything is square, level, and built to exact specifications. Our meticulous approach to first fix work creates the solid foundation upon which the rest of your project depends.
Our First Fix Carpentry Services
With two decades of hands-on experience, our skilled team tackles all aspects of structural carpentry with precision and care. We specialise in pitched roofs and roof structures, ensuring your roof framework is secure, properly aligned, and built to withstand the elements. Our timber framing services for extensions and new builds create the essential skeleton of your property, constructed to exacting standards and building regulations.
We handle loft conversions and structural alterations, transforming unused roof spaces into valuable living areas while maintaining structural integrity throughout your property. Our expertise extends to oak frames and oak porches, creating stunning traditional features that combine beauty with exceptional durability. We install floor joists that create sturdy, level flooring systems capable of supporting your home for decades, and construct timber stud walls that form internal room layouts with perfect alignment.
Our complete first fix carpentry service covers every structural element your project requires, from initial framework through to door linings and window frame installation, creating perfectly square openings ready for second fix elements.
