## Answer

Carpenter charges in Delhi run ~25% above the pan-India base. For a per-day basis (common on multi-day site jobs), expect ₹750–₹2,750/day depending on experience. Freshers charge at the lower end; senior carpenters running a small team price at the upper end.

For per-job pricing (standard residential fixes), small work is ₹250–₹750 (tap fix, minor repair, single install), mid-sized work is ₹750–₹2,500 (multiple installs, larger repairs), and big jobs like full-room refits are ₹3,125–₹12,500 (labour only — materials always separate).

Commission-based apps mark up Delhi rates by 15–30% over the direct rate. On a ₹625 tap fix, that's ₹94–₹188 extra you pay for zero extra service. Going direct through a zero-commission platform like Solve24 keeps the price at the carpenter's quoted rate.
