Construction

The table below shows the furniture and materials needed to reach level 33. Be sure to bring a saw and a hammer in order to make furniture.

Regular planks require using nails. Use steel nails or better, as lower-tier nails bend more often. Start using oak planks at level 15, as they are faster to use than regular planks as they do not require using nails.

Mahogany Homes is a cheaper and less click-intensive alternative to the faster methods. Players work as a contractor for the Mahogany Homes company, repairing and replacing furniture in client NPCs' houses throughout Falador, Varrock, East Ardougne, and Hosidius.

To begin, speak to Amy in Falador after acquiring a player-owned house. Have her assign a construction contract, travel to the client's house, refurbish the marked furniture, and talk to the client to finish. Subsequent contracts can also be assigned by Marlo in Varrock, Ellie in East Ardougne, or Angelo in Hosidius. They are found in the same buildings as the cities' respective estate agents.

Building the furniture requires the respective planks for the contract tier and steel bars. A hammer and a saw is required to build the furniture. Nails are not required. For optimal rates, players will need teleports to all four cities, such as teleport tablets or runes, and a charged Xeric's talisman for Hosidius.

Boat repair kits and hull parts can be constructed at a shipwrights' workbench near a bank and resold to other players, which is different from most other Construction training methods which use resources without producing items. The quest Pandemonium is required in order to use the shipwrights' workbench.

Planks are worth roughly half as much experience each at a shipwrights' workbench, reducing the overall experience per hour, but the resale value can make this method worthwhile for some players. It is also more relaxed than traditional Construction, with up to 29 seconds per inventory (or longer with a plank sack) of idle time.

The closest shipwrights' workbench to a bank is in Red Rock, being only 2 tiles apart from one another, however this requires completion of The Red Reef. The closest setup without a Sailing requirement is in Port Khazard, being just 5 tiles apart.

To start off, the Daddy's Home miniquest grants a total of 944 Construction experience as well as a crate of Construction supplies. This will get the player up from level 1 to 8. Players that are going for Angler's outfit should start at Fishing Trawler. 100 trips would require a minimum of 1,000 swamp paste, or 5,100 if gaining max points. 5,100 fixes would also provide 25,500 construction experience, equivalent to level 36. Alternatively, purchase a player-owned house from any estate agent for 1,000. The house will have two rooms – a parlour and a garden – and no furniture apart from the exit portal in the garden.

A players' house portal is located in Rimmington by default, but can be moved for a fee. It is recommended to have level 40 Magic to be able to cast Teleport to House. Alternatively, use teleport to house tablets.

Construction is typically trained by repeatedly building and removing various furniture inside the player-owned house. To build furniture, enter the player-owned house in building mode or enable it through settings while inside. Players will need a saw and a hammer to build items.

Planks are the primary material for training, and using them costs money. Buy the planks from the Grand Exchange. While making planks from logs can save money, especially with the Plank Make spell, it does not give any Construction experience and is therefore considered simply a money making method for normal accounts.

There are four tiers of planks: regular, oak, teak, and mahogany, each with increasing cost and experience gained from using it. Planks yield the same amount of experience per plank regardless of what furniture is built, except for the mounted mythical cape and some low-level furniture which use regular planks. As such, use the highest-tier planks for the fastest experience rates, or look into cheaper alternatives if trying to save money.

The table below shows the costs to obtain level 83 (a common level to achieve, as it is possible to boost +8 for the ornate jewellery box).
