Probuilding & Carpentry delivers quality carpentry throughout Rozelle, Balmain and the Inner West peninsula — with genuine, demonstrated experience on the area’s heritage terraces and period cottages. From balcony restorations to new decks and complete renovations, we combine traditional detailing with modern structural standards.

Our portfolio includes a heritage balcony restoration in Rozelle, where original profiles were matched and the structure rebuilt to current code — the kind of project that defines our approach: sympathetic to the era, uncompromising on structure.

Free quotes. Free advice. Guaranteed workmanship. Probuilding & Carpentry is a licensed NSW carpentry business (Lic. 458148C), fully insured, with 8+ years of hands-on experience. Owner Hamzah Elfoul leads every job personally and treats each home like it’s his own.

Local services include:

• Heritage balcony & verandah restoration — structural rebuilds with period-correct posts, balustrades and mouldings
• Terrace house renovations — floors, stairs, doors and detailed finishing carpentry in period properties
• Decks & pergolas — outdoor structures designed for the tight sites typical of the peninsula
• Weatherboard & cladding repairs — rot rectification and board matching on period exteriors
• Doors, skirting & architraves — profile matching and installation to heritage standards
• Windows & structural repairs — sash window servicing, lintel and frame rectification

1. Get in touch. Call, SMS or send photos of the job through the contact form — a rough idea of size and materials helps.
2. Site visit & measure. Where needed, Hamzah visits to measure up, check access and talk through options that suit your property and budget.
3. Itemised written quote. You get a clear, line-by-line quote — no lump-sum guesswork, so you can see exactly what you’re paying for.
4. The build. We turn up when we say we will, keep the site clean and keep you updated as the work progresses.
5. Walkthrough & guarantee. We walk you through the finished job and stand behind our workmanship — if something’s not right, we come back and fix it.

Heritage work rewards patience and punishes shortcuts. We take the time to understand how the original structure was built, retain what is sound, and replace what is not with materials and details true to the era — documented and photographed throughout for owners, architects and certifiers.

• Licensed & insured — NSW contractor licence 458148C, full public liability insurance, details supplied with every quote.
• Specialists in older & heritage homes — matched skirting and architrave profiles, traditional detailing and sympathetic repairs.
• One point of contact — you deal with Hamzah directly from first call to final walkthrough, not a rotating crew of subcontractors.
• Itemised quotes, honest advice — we’ll tell you when a cheaper option will do the job, and when it won’t.

Do you work on heritage-listed properties?

Yes. We regularly work on heritage and conservation-area properties, and can work to architect specifications and heritage consultant requirements where applicable.

Can you restore rather than replace original features?

Wherever the timber is sound, yes — restoration is usually our first recommendation. Where replacement is unavoidable, we match species and profiles so the new work reads as original.

Do you service apartments and strata buildings in Rozelle?

Yes — we carry out documented repairs for strata schemes and managed properties across the peninsula, including balcony and common-area works.
