Where can it take me?

The Construction Industry has changed over the years and instead of being dominated by large construction companies it has been broken up into smaller businesses. These smaller businesses specialise in all aspects of the industry. Carpentry has taken on a different roll mainly covered by subcontractors. Carpenters used to do all of the work from setting up of the form work to putting up the roof frame and every-thing in between now it has become individual teams specialising in all aspects of the trade. Your future is only restricted by your imagination.
