This review is a bit late in coming but so well deserved. This is actually the second time that Aaron has completed my loft conversion after we had a fire which destroyed the previous conversion. Aaron and his team are experienced, knowledgeable and extremely friendly, nothing was ever too much trouble and if I wanted to change anything it was never a problem. I'm hoping to not need a third attempt but wouldn't hesitate to use AB Carpentry again for any projects. Highly recommended and happy to be contacted if needed.

Aaron and his team built a garden office for me. The quality of the work was outstanding. The attention to detail was over and above my expectations. He was very reliable turning up when he said he would and worked very late in order to get the job done. He was also very tidy, I will definitely be using again. One very happy customer.

Aaron and his team were fantastic. I had my decking replaced last week and was very impressed with the end product. They were very tidy, took away all waste without any fuss and as you'll see from the pictures, it looks great. He also fitted some lights I supplied myself, no questions asked. Price was very reasonable too. Would recommend.

Aaron and his team couldn’t be any more professional; they are courteous and considerate of the fact that they are working in your home, we really can’t recommend them enough. The quality of work from the AB Carpentry team was also excellent and done efficiently and always within the promised time frames. Aaron is happy to answer and queries and concerns you may have and explains what work is being carried out and why at every stage of the process. If you are looking for a reliable, local carpentry firm, working to a very high- standard look no further.

Mitch has done a brilliant job of fitting several internal oak doors for us, and a new external door. He is friendly, courteous, tidy and takes great care of our home while he’s working. Wouldn’t hesitate to use him again or recommend him.

Mitch has done a great job replacing skirting boards and kitchen unit plinths. We have used his services several times and he is always prompt and helpful as well as being a talented carpenter.

Mitch is one of a kind. His attention to detail is second to none and shows within his work. He has done a few jobs for us now and everytime he exceeds my expectations everytime. So glad we’ve found someone as versatile as Mitch, goes above and beyond for his customers. Thank you so much. 100% recommend.

Very pleased with the work Mitch carried out. Bespoke wardrobe and a few door amendments. Mitch was very professional, on time and very tidy. Would highly recommend and definitely getting him back for more work. Thanks Mitch.

Utilised JMLC Southern for our new kitchen installation. We are delighted with their efficiency, attention to detail and professionalism. They are reliable, courteous and deliver exactly what they promise. Well worth the investment. They exceeded all our expectations and would hight recommend without hesitation. A Sincere thank you to Jonas.

We have just had some composite decking out down by Jonas. It looks amazing, huge attention to detail and fitted efficiently. He was respectful of our budget, worked hard and I would strongly recommend him. Thank you !!!

Jonas put flooring down throughout our house. We are delighted with the end result. He communicated clearly with us throughout the installation on all aspects of the work and was completed to an excellent standard. He was prompt and finished the work on time. We wouldn't hesitate to use him again.

Jonas was an excepional find! He is a truly talented individual who has a passion for delivering absolute quality work. He has a fabulous "can do" work ethic and is genuinely pleased to see clients happy with his work. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him wholeheartedly. Alex

We are very happy with Jonny's mastery in carpentry. He's helpful, punctual, tidy and very quick. We will be calling him for more projects shortly and I'd definitely recommend him for anyone in the area. He has also got a great personality, which is a big plus for any tradesperson!

Jonny fitted nine doors at my house last year. Firstly he is a really nice guy, secondly he is a good carpenter, and lastly nothing is too much trouble. For example I wanted to instal the old doors at my daughters and Jonny took them all over there for me in his van. I was very satisfied with the workmanship, he has the right tools, knows how to use them, and the end result has lifted the whole house. He did most of the cutting outside to reduce the dust inside, but hey its wood working and it makes some sawdust. I thoroughly recommend Jonny, he has good attention to detail, cleans up after himself, will happily adjust anything once it’s fitted, and his prices are competitive.

Can’t recommend Jonny enough! Clean, tidy & professional. Very happy with our custom build cupboards/shelves and the fitting of new doors throughout the house.

Highly recommend Jonny. His work is brilliant, he is reasonably priced, punctual and polite. He recently built a cabinet and shelves for me from scratch and the results are fantastic. We spoke briefly about what I wanted to achieve, and he immediately came up with recommended solutions and then smashed through the work. Anytime I need carpentry services in future, I will 100% be phoning Jonny, which is probably the best thing I can say!

Oly did a superb job installing a wooden Mantelpiece which we're thrilled with. He was punctual, tidy, polite and I would have no hesitation in recommending him. A great job! Thanks

Oly did a great job of fitting my new kitchen. Friendly, lovley and trustworthy. Great communication between the landlady who doesn't live in the area and the tenant. Oly made the experience a relaxed and stress free experience. Would highly recommend!

Oly fitted cupboards in our kitchen, office and living room which all look brilliant. He made them in three different styles and was able to accommodate all our requests, even as we kept changing them. On top of that, he is very friendly and good to chat with. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Oly fitted did a fantastic job fitting my new kitchen. He was on time each day and was very understanding when I had to delay the job by a few days. He made a very stressful experience a lot more tolerable and kept me sane! He always left the work space clean and tidy. He was also very good with the dog. Will definitely be using Oly again in the future and would highly recommend.

We got recommended to Thorpe Carpentry to fit our new kitchen and his work was so good, that I also commissioned him to build my garden bar. He also made a stunning job of that too, so would highly recommend.

We employed Thorpe Carpentry to build and install sliding understairs cupboards in a Victorian property. The original panelling was carefully removed before the frames and cupboards were installed having been made off site in their workshop. Two new doors were also fitted with a new newel post. The care and attention to every aspect of the work was second to none. Lewis and Oscar were professional and I would highly recommend them for any carpentry you may be considering. They also manufacture bespoke kitchens.

We would highly recommend Thorpe’s Carpentry, Lewis has made our new kitchen come alive with his brilliant work. Nothing is too much trouble for Lewis, even when you call him off site.

Thorpe carpentry has been involved with a number of carpentry projects on our house including fitting our kitchen, cladding the outside of our house and building a garden room. He is extremely reliable and completed the work to a high standard. Nothing was too much trouble and we would 100 % recommend him.

Matt is one of the best, experienced carpenter's I've worked along side. Genuine and clued up on all aspects of carpentry.

We have used Archer Carpentry for roof line changes and to fit our Handmade Kitchens of Christchurch kitchen. On both occasions Matt and his team were polite, on time, well organised and very quick and tidy. If there were any unexpected glitches Matt found a solution and fixed it without drama. I felt they were very fairly priced, honest and great people to work with. I would absolutely recommend Archer Carpentry and would definitely use them again.

Great service and would always recommend

I have worked with Archer Carpentry on a number of projects and have always been pleased with the service and quality of craftsmanship. Highly recommend.
