Carpenter in Portsea

Belle Carpentry builds and restores decks, pergolas and timber features for homes in Portsea and across the southern Mornington Peninsula, with clear quotes and tidy, careful work.

Built for the tip of the Peninsula

Portsea sits between Port Phillip and Bass Strait, so homes here take the full force of salt air, strong winds and summer sun. Timber that suits a suburban backyard can grey, split and cup within a few seasons on the coast.

We choose hardwoods, composites and fixings that cope with coastal conditions, and we finish every job with weather in mind, whether it is a new deck, a restored pergola or a panelled hallway in a beach house.

Recent work on the Peninsula

An old linen cupboard in a Red Hill home, rebuilt as a mudroom. Shaker-style cabinets above, V-groove panelling with brass hooks, LED lights under the cabinets, and a live-edge timber bench with drawers below. It is the kind of built-in joinery we can do for entries, laundries and hallways in Portsea homes too.
