The Good Dudes Lowdown

A few things you might be wondering.

  • Yep! We offer free, no-obligation quotes. Tell us a bit about your project, and we'll let you know the next steps.

  • Every job is different, so it's hard to give an exact price without seeing the site and chatting through what you're after. Our online price guide is there to give you a rough idea of costs, but the best way to get an accurate price is with a proper quote.

  • Of course. Most people don't have building plans sitting in a drawer ready to go.

    Whether you've got detailed drawings, a few Pinterest photos, or just an idea in your head, we're happy to talk through options and help point you in the right direction.

  • Absolutely. Good Dudes Carpentry is fully licensed and insured, so you can have confidence that your project is being completed professionally and safely.

  • We're based in Newcastle and work across Lake Macquarie, the Hunter Region and surrounding areas. If you're not sure whether we travel to your area, just ask.

  • If it's made from timber, there's a good chance we can help.

    We specialise in decks, pergolas, outdoor entertaining areas, framing, renovations, extensions and general carpentry work.

  • No worries. Sometimes ideas change once a project gets underway.

    We'll always discuss any variations with you before carrying out the work so you understand any impacts on price or timeframe before decisions are made.

  • Some projects do, some don't.

    If approvals, engineering or certification are required, we'll let you know and help point you in the right direction.

  • We don't expect you to pay for your entire project upfront.

    For most jobs, payments are made in stages as work progresses. We'll outline exactly what those stages look like in your quote, so you know what to expect from day one.

    No surprises, no hidden costs, and no awkward conversations.

  • Because we genuinely care.

    We're a local family-run business that believes in quality work, clear communication, showing up when we say we will, and treating your home with respect.

    No jargon. No surprises. Just good work from good dudes.
