One of the advantages of construction companies founded by carpenters is that they are skilled at carpentry works. Before Meiji era, any buildings such as Shinto shrines, temples, castles and houses were designed and constructed by carpenters.
After Meiji era, however, design work and construction work were separated for the buildings except wooden ones.
Consequently, now we can see wooden buildings designed and constructed by carpenters in the fields of free-standing houses, Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines.
Carpenters engage in the construction work from start to finish; they lay the groundwork for other craftspeople first, and add the final touches by solid woods. It means that the construction companies founded by carpenters know the construction sites very well and are good at new construction and renovation.
For that reason, carpenters were called master builders (shoku-gashira) in the wooden construction business.
These days, though, there is the decreasing number of carpenters who can handle solid woods.
