For structural work, ensure your carpenter holds the appropriate builder's licence for your state.
Do carpenters in Toowoomba need to be licensed?
In Toowoomba and across Australia, licensing requirements for carpenters vary by state and by the type of work.

In Victoria, carpenters need a Domestic Builder (Limited) licence from the VBA for structural work. In Queensland, carpenters need a QBCC licence for work over $3,300. Always ask your Toowoomba carpenter for their licence number and check it with the relevant state authority before work begins.
