Wow!!! A super job!
Wow!!!
What a professional experience!
Genuinely super impressed.
Colin came to check the space I wanted a loft hatch with ladder. He quoted for the job. All done politely and promptly.
On the day Colin turned up bang on time.
When I returned home the house was spotless! No loft insulation, dust, sawdust etc that I’d been expecting!
And the step ladder hatch itself is great.
Can’t get over how clean he left my home.
Thank you Colin.
I highly recommend his work.
Kitchen Installation
We recently had Colin complete a kitchen fitting and joinery project over the course of three weeks, and the experience was flawless. From the initial visit and detailed quotation to the clear contract and schedule of works, Colin’s organisation was second to none.
What sets Colin apart is his communication and attention to detail. He coordinated all the trades perfectly, meaning I didn't have a single day of worry. He even provided valuable suggestions to improve our kitchen layout—like sitting the units forward—which made a huge difference to the end result. He is incredibly clean, professional, and a true rarity in the industry.
Would highly recommend and will use again for future projects.
New spindles on staircase
Colin fitted new spindles to the staircase, replacing plain boards. The job looks great and the quality of the workmanship is excellent. Colin tidied up well after the work, and at the end of the first day. Very pleased.
First Class Kitchen refurb
Colin arrived on time on the day we agreed. He was meticulous in his preparation and always left site extremely tidy. His attention to detail and professionalism were exemplary. He has completed a first class job and our kitchen looks like new.
He resprayed our kitchen cabinets and some inbuilt cupboards, replaced hinges etc. Highly recommend him for all carpentry needs cabinet making to respray.
Exceptional workmanship
Colin's work was to a very high standard. He discussed each stage of the fitting with us and answered any queries we had. He co ordinated the other trades needed who's work was also to a high standard. We are very pleased with the finished kitchen.
Exactly what we hoped for.
We wanted to replace an old wardrobe and drawer combination bedroom unit. Colin was proactive and thorough throughout, from asking us what we wanted to keeping us informed of work schedules, costs and the process. Once he had completed and assembled the units, the work was completed almost entirely in a single day. Very happy with the results!
Fantastic service from Colin
Fantastic service from Colin. Workmanship has been fantastic and Colin was a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend him.
Amazing attention to the smallest…
Amazing attention to the smallest detail. Listened to our requirements and translated these into a beautiful bespoke item of furniture.
A Beautiful Deck!
Thanks to Colin, we now have a beautiful deck which is also expertly constructed! Colin did exactly what he said he'd do, when he said he'd do it. He was friendly and easy to work with and explained when we asked questions. We would absolutely hire him again.
Colin is great
Colin is great. He understood what I needed from my understairs storage (what needs storing). He helped me save money by offering alternatives whilst not compromising on the quality and finish of the product. He arrived when he said he would, he didn't rush the job just to get it done, he came back the next day. I would highly recommend him to anyone. We was even great with our dog and my toddler who was very inquisitive about all he was doing.
New kitchen
We needed to renew the kitchen at our disabled son’s house, which required careful planning, and for the work to be done when our son was not at the house. Colin was flexible, reserved the relevant week and completed all the work on schedule. Added to this, he made a fantastic job of the kitchen! It is exactly what was needed and looks amazing! Our grateful thanks to Colin, who understood the potential difficulties and worked with us to achieve the result we and our son wanted.
He took an idea and made it better than I thought possible
I asked Colin to improve or renew an existing box I needed for work; I showed him what I needed and left him with it.
What he came back with far outweighed my expectations.
It was made of beautiful materials, with personalised detail to enhance it. I'm very thankful for the care and attention he gave this piece and I highly recommend him as a skilled craftsman.
Kitchen installation
Colin installed a Howdens kitchen for us - delighted with his work and attention to detail - and I would recommend Colin to anyone looking for bespoke furniture or a kitchen installation
Amazing shelving unit
Colin made a shelving unit for me in an alcove with no straight edges and it looks amazing. Great service and quality of work. Would recommend and use again
Highly recommended
Colin arrived as promised. He kept us fully informed at all times and completed the job to a very high standard. We would definitely use Colin again and recommend him to anyone needing a good carpenter/joiner.
Masterpiece
We asked Colin to turn a dream bed idea into reality knowing it would not be easy at all. He improved the original design, incorporated some elements from our culture and made it really practical and beautiful. Tremendous amount of work, but we have our fine piece of furniture and kids love it, it’s their little den.
Accurately fitted a gate but added…
Accurately fitted a gate but added extra security without prompting. Excellent craftsmenship.Highly recommended.
Kitchen cupboard door
Colin was employed to fit a cupboard door to a replacement integrated washer dryer which had different fitment to the old one. Colin has excellent communication and an eye for detail. Highly recommended.
Excellent Service
Colin is comitted to the highest standard of woodwork, using a wide range of tools and the latest technology for accurate measurements. The final product Entrance Porch was so neat which exceeded my expectations. Throughout the project Colin provides timely updates, any modifications and clarifications for technical issues. I have no hesitation to highly recommend him for any wood work.
Beautiful upgrade.
Colin rebuilt our 1970s sun room almost from scratch. The room which was unusable for much of the year due to temperature variations is now a beautiful and functional sitting area with utility section. Service was second to none. The work was carried out efficiently, with great attention to detail and to a really high standard. Highly recommended.
