Joiners in Kirkwall: Homeowners vs Renters

Homeowners

If you own your home, you're responsible for hiring and paying for joinery work. Keep written records, especially for big jobs. Some joiners offer warranties or guarantees, so ask before work begins.

Renters

Landlords are usually responsible for structural joinery issues like broken doors, windows, or floors. But if it's cosmetic (like adding shelving), you may need permission. Check your tenancy agreement first.

If you’re a renter needing to organise the job, many Kirkwall joiners on Checkatrade can schedule directly with your landlord or agent.
