Rating: 5 / 5

Julius and his team were fantastic from start to finish being super friendly and professional. I am overjoyed with my new media cabinets that have transformed my living room especially the addition of the LED lights recommended by Julius. You can clearly tell they work with passion with their handcraft-ship and huge eye to detail. Thank you guys so much for your work, will definitely be hearing from me again for any future projects.

If it was possible to give 10* to JJ Carpentry and Maintenance Ltd I would. I had quite a complex issues with some very large doors to my property and had experienced very poor and expensive repairs previously. The work JJ did was outstanding and I couldn't be happier or more grateful.

We needed our drawers re-done in our wardrobes. It was a very bespoke project as we didn't need something built from scratch, but within an already built structure. It was wonderful working with Solid Carpentry, and the final product was beautiful! Dmitriy was attentive to all the special adjustments we wanted for our drawers and patient if we changed our minds on some details. Solid Carpentry used high-quality materials and did a great paint job. We love our drawers!!

Dmitriy and his team are first class. I would highly recommend using Solid Carpentry for any of your requirements. He helped us design the perfect living room and storage in our small porch area. Everything was built to measure in his workshop and brought to our home and fitted in a very efficient manor. We love the final result and his attention to detail is impeccable.

Solid Carpentry designed and installed a custom, built-in bookcase with a hidden door for me. Dmitriy was responsive, open & clear about what to expect (including considerations we had not thought of), took a lot of care and demonstrated real pride in his work - which made the whole process very enjoyable. The results are spectacular and we couldn't be happier.

I recently worked with Dimitry and Solid Carpentry to have a built -in wardrobe fitted in my bedroom so I could have more storage space. Dimitry was excellent right from the start - polite, up front about costs, arriving on time, giving me advice and keeping me updated on the job. I gave him a photo to work from and he made the wardrobe look just like it! It was also a really awkward space, the room is slightly on a slope but he made it fit just right. I'd definitely recommend Solid Carpentry to anyone, and I will definitely be using Solid Carpentry again if I need any more carpentry in the future.

We are genuinely so thrilled with the wardrobes Simran and his team have created for us. I can’t believe what an amazing job they have done - true masters of the craft! Everything about SS Carpentry feels of such a high standard, from the initial consultation, through to all the design and fitting. The team were flexible, responsive, gave creative direction where we asked for it and facilitated our ideas in the best way possible. They too a difficult space in the corner of our room and maximised the storage for us. They were extremely considerate whilst inside the house, very tidy and cleaned up after the work wonderfully. It's pretty rare now-a-days to come across a small business which beyond exceeds your expectations but these guys are it!! I would 100% recommend.

Very professional and great craftsmanship. Couldn't be more helpful in suggesting design and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend.

We worked with Simran on some custom alcove units and we couldn't have been happier with the job. From the briefing meeting to the installation we received a prompt service with excellent results. I couldn't reccommend S.S. Carpentry more.

Rating: 5 / 5

We absolutely love the fitted wardrobes that Simran and his team built and installed for us. From start to finish, Simran was helpful and patient while we discussed ideas. The workmanship is brilliant and Simran is professional and experienced, we really appreciated his ideas and advice.

Pete built 4 wardrobes, a TV cabinet and a bookcase, installed picture and dado rails, and even put some shelves up. Really pleased with the end result - great quality and finish. Pete was helpful throughout and worked with us and incorporated all our requests. All done very quickly and great communication throughout. Would highly recommend Pete.

Rating: 5 / 5

Pete has done a brilliant job for us. He installed floating alcove shelves in our lounge which look brilliant, and he put in floor to ceiling wardrobes in the bedroom which look amazing despite the dubious colour choice made by my partner. Pete is very conscientious, turns up on time, tidies up, is no fuss whatsoever and works hard all day to make everything look perfect. Would definitely recommend and will use again.

Rating: 5 / 5

Delighted with the two alcove built in wardrobes that Peter recently built and installed for us in our bedroom. The finish is excellent and Peter was very communicative throughout.

Rating: 5 / 5

We absolutely love our shelves and cupboard in our living room alcoves. Pete was so speedy, but his work is detailed and beautiful. Pete was friendly and tidy so we were not at all worried about him being in the flat. We will definitely be using Pete again. Many thanks!

We worked with Doug on some alcove wardrobes and alcove cupboards with floating shelves. Couldn’t be happier with the end result, but just as importantly Doug was great to work with both during the design and build. Couldn’t recommend Doug more highly.

Rating: 5 / 5

Doug was very accommodating and knowledgeable and worked with our changes and requests professionally. We had a media unit and lounge cupboards/ shelving made and installed. We are extremely happy with the finish, all at a reasonable price too. I would not hesitate to recommend Doug and will certainly be using his services again when we need wardrobes making.

Rating: 5 / 5

We hired Doug to design and build some wardrobes. From the first meeting we got a good feeling and his attention to detail shone through. His quote was competitive (not the cheapest, nor the most expensive) but we just felt from the questions he was asking that he understood what we wanted to achieve. He worked in a clean and tidy way and was consultative throughout. Importantly, we felt we could trust him in our home. We absolutely love the end result. It's added lots of much-needed storage space and is finished to a very high standard. We have no hesitation recommending Hathaway and plan to use him for TV alcove cupboards in the future.

Rating: 5 / 5

This is the second time we’ve used Doug’s services and had another great experience. Doug is very easy to work with, he takes time to understand your requirements and works to a very high standard, leaving the space clean and tidy each day. Nothing is too much trouble, even when I changed my mind on the colour, Doug was happy to re-paint the wardrobes to make sure we were 100% happy with the finish! I would definitely use his services again and have already recommended him to friends.

Toby has worked on a few projects for us and we're always very happy with the results. He's very professional, has great ideas, highly skilled and works with minimum disruption. I'd always recommend him to friends.

Rating: 5 / 5

Toby always delivers excellent work, from brief to sketch to reality I have always been impressed. He is absolutely reliable, trustworthy, professional and has completed several projects for me over the years including built in wardrobes, media units, bookcases and desks. I cannot fault his work and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for good value, top standard carpentry.

Rating: 5 / 5

Toby designed, constructed and installed built-in wardrobes in three rooms last year for us. The results were fantastic. We would certainly recommend Toby to others. The craftmanship was top-notch. As important from our perspective, Toby was very helpful at the design stage.

Rating: 5 / 5

Toby offers a high quality service with great professionalism as well as a friendly and pleasant manner. He’s diligent and meticulous; great at brainstorming and setting out the blueprint and practical implications of the project in detail, making the actual project run seamlessly and efficiently. Whether it’s building garden constructions such as awnings or pergolas, or redesigning and building a private library, his work is perfect. Fantastic service!

Rating: 5 / 5

He is very good and professional. He did exactly what he promised and more. I’m so happy it couldn’t have gone any better. He built me a gazebo and built my shed doors for me and he’s a very nice man to work with from Kim Smith.

Rating: 5 / 5

The work quality is outstanding, exceeding my expectations I am completely impressed with their professionalism and customer service. Thank you so much. Much appreciated the care you have put into.

Ray did a wonderful job converting my study into a new bedroom for the kids. See the before and after photos. He modified the existing cabinetry and installed a new triple bunk bed. All the work was done with precision and care, and with a very high level of professionalism. I will definitely and confidently use and recommend Ray again. Karim

Fantastic local joiner in East Dulwich, after doing a lot of research and comparing against main suppliers we decided to go with Alex at Crown Joinery. Our new door is just beautiful and we already has so many comments as well as friends asking for referral. Would not hesitate to recommend Crown Joinery to anyone. Great service from start to finish. Thank you very much Alex

Rating: 5 / 5

We have just had a set of new front porch doors installed by Alex and we’re delighted with what he has done for us. The doors have been beautifully made to our own speciation, using very high quality materials throughout. We were able to visit his workshop during their construction and discuss with him any issues relating to detail that arose, which was great. We’d definitely recommend Crown Joinery if you’re looking for a firm to make and install new front doors. SE15 4DB

Beautiful craftsmanship, expert joinery knowledge and great follow up customer service. We have had 2 doors created by Crown joinery, each are a pleasure to use and no doubt will last a lifetime.

Rating: 5 / 5

We are now the proud owners of a beautiful new front door whilst keeping the original stained glass feature of the door. Crown Joinery understood our desparate desire to keep the glass centre panel and with specialist associates, removed the fragile glass and had it repaired replacing broken and missing glass, cleaning, releading and finally double glasing. Crown, in the meantime, went about building the new door to hold this glass with amazing precision and wonderful finish, again understanding the need to keep faithful to the original. All set in a new frame, the door, with all its weight , opens and closes with a mere gentle push. When outside we are often approached by people remarking on the door and comparing it with their own, wishing theirs was as good. We would certainly recommend anyone to consider Crown Joinery for any forthcoming projects.
