Family-owned in Ballarat

A family workshop that's been doing it properly for decades

We're Townsend Joinery — a family-owned timber joinery workshop in Ballarat. For decades Aaron and the team have made timber windows and doors the way they should be made: by hand, from Western Red Cedar, Yellow Cedar and Accoya. You get joinery you can see the care in, and a local team you can actually talk to.

From our workshop, not a warehouse

Made in Ballarat, start to finish

Every window and door we make leaves our workshop, not a warehouse. Aaron and the team machine and assemble the timber by hand in Ballarat, and finish each piece so it arrives ready to fit and ready to last.

Because we're a small family team, the same people look after your joinery from the first cut to the finished piece. Your builder or carpenter fits it, and we stay available to them while it goes in — so there's one point of contact who always knows where things are up to.

We build for heritage homes and new builds right across Ballarat and the goldfields — matching original period profiles or clean modern lines, single or double-glazed. Whatever your home needs, we'll make it fit properly and look right.

What we stand for

What you can count on

Plain, honest joinery and no cut corners. Here's what you get when you work with us.

Genuine craftsmanship

Hand-cut joints, solid timber and a finish built to last decades — not seasons. Windows and doors you'll be glad you chose for years to come.

Made by the people who own it

Aaron and the team cut, machine and assemble every piece themselves in our own workshop — no outsourcing, no imported flat-pack.

Local and accountable

We live and work in Ballarat. If you ever need us after the job's done, we're just up the road — not a call centre.

Efficient, but classic

Modern double glazing keeps your home warmer and quieter, without giving up the heritage look you love.
