Ben has built two pieces for us - a TV unit, and a larder. Both were finished to such a high standard and we have been so impressed with the craftsmanship. Ben was super responsive throughout the process and came with ideas and solutions to support us with the design. Would 100% recommend.

Ben and team recently designed and installed a new, bespoke kitchen for us. They did a fantastic job - the kitchen is beautiful, extremely high quality, and certainly value for money. Ben's attention to detail is exceptional, and his open style of communication made the project and having him around a pleasure. He was only too happy to accommodate our particular requirements, and went over and above to deal with certain quirks and unexpected issues once the installation had started. I can't recommend Thomas Carpentry & Joinery enough!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Ben to build a custom unit for our dining room, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The craftsmanship is nothing short of incredible. Every detail reflects a level of skill and dedication that is hard to find. The unit not only enhances the aesthetics of our dining room but also provides practical storage solutions that seamlessly blend with our existing decor. Ben was attentive to our needs, offering insightful suggestions that truly brought our vision to life. His professionalism and commitment to quality were evident throughout the entire process. He worked efficiently, respected our home, and completed the project on time. We highly recommend Ben to anyone in need of high-quality carpentry work. Our beautiful new unit has transformed our dining space, and we couldn't be happier! Thank you for your outstanding work!

Ben is a passionate craftsman and it shows in the quality of the fine work he produces. He helped design and build a beautiful and functional bespoke wardrobe for my bedroom. He was polite, professional and cared about providing an excellent service. And that’s exactly what he did! I highly recommend Ben and his team.

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!!

We have a difficult to make use of small boiler room in our flat. In need of more storage space we got in touch with Solid Carpentry. They did such an excellent job from start to finish. We can now finally store all of our luggage and random things and the room actually feels bigger now. Well done on getting the shelves fitted in such small awkward spaces. And thank you for your excellent consultation, always fast and helpful communication and superb work you did in the room. Can highly recommend Dimitriy and team to anyone who needs a custom job done.

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.

We recently asked Andy for help to modify a piece of furniture. He was very quick to respond and visited to see the furniture and give us a quote. He then did a great job. I would definitely recommend and work with Andy in the future. He's also a really nice guy.

Rating: 5 / 5

Andy did a great job with our bath frame and panels. He was kind enough to fit us in on short notice after completing some other work. He was responsive, punctual, worked well and quickly and was a really nice person to work with! Andy also had the benefit of cutting items remotely so was able to keep our bathroom incredibly clean, and was tidy in general. I had a great experience with him and will definitely use him again for future work.

Rating: 5 / 5

Andy was fantastic. He did a great job making our very worn out front of house like new again. He was also really helpful doing some smaller jobs, fixing a floor board, grouting our back patio etc. We will definitely use him again as other jobs come up. I chose Andy because of the reviews and they’re right. He was responsive, professional, good at communication and an all round nice person. He clearly takes pride in his work and cares that you are happy at the end of the day and would go the extra mile (including literally picking up a specific paint I chose for us) to make sure you are. Also reasonably priced so couldn’t ask for anything more! Will try and update final photos later as sadly we currently have scaffolding hiding how good it looks!

Andy did a fabulous job restoring a recently purchased antique chest of drawers. He did a quick and free site visit to assess the piece of furniture and gave an honest evaluation of how it could be restored and what the costs would be. He was able to fit me into his busy schedule because I was anxious about getting the piece fixed. He was prompt and brought all the necessary tools. He walked me through the issues and fully restored the drawers in a timely manner. It wasn’t the most obvious solution, but Andy is knowledgeable, skilled and creative at solving issues. He left the area clean and was tidy during the process. Besides being a skilled carpenter, he is also kind, warm and professional. Would definitely recommend!

ELB’s in-demand carpentry service is certainly worth the wait. We couldn’t be happier with the work they have done installing new floating shelves and a built-in laundry unit. Through each stage of the process, Peter was excellent and extremely helpful, he visited our site and perfectly understood what we were aiming for, he provided a digital design sketch for the project and made multiple revisions and suggestions until we were happy with the final design. The fit and finish was perfect, he even spray painted the cabinets in the colours we had chosen and was able to fit everything in just one day. We’re so happy with the results and will definitely be using their services again in the future.

Peter was brilliant. He fitted a mirrored bathroom cupboard for us in a tight space and it looks great. He was easy to contact and listened to what we were looking for throughout the process. On the fitting day he and his assistant were polite, quick and tidied everything up once they were done. Would highly recommend!

Had alcove shelves and cabinets designed and fitted. We’re delighted with the outcome and Peter was friendly, responsive and catered to our requirements. Would highly recommend!

Bespoke Fitted Wardrobes - Peter's service is very bespoke - attention to detail and problem solving - is something Peter really enjoys and was challenged by this space being uneven and shallow! I am thrilled with the results and highly recommend him. I had received quotes from the larger companies - Peter's prices are similar but the product is bespoke - I have exactly what I wanted.

Very impressed from start to finish with Bespoke Carpentry. Really easy to communicate with to discuss design ideas. David (the carpenter) was excellent, a lovely man who is a very talented carpenter. He worked incredibly hard and fast to get our bookcase cabinet fitted in just two days. Really pleased with everything. David also gave me lots of tips for finishing touches and aftercare.

Great service, very efficient. They made me a wardrobe with shelves in the eaves of a small bedroom, making great use of the space. The two guys who came and worked on it were very professional, as is the whole company. I would definitely recommend them to others.

Paolo and his team (Dennis for the carpenter work) did an amaaaazing job at building a bespoke mezzanine in a relatively small bedroom with high ceilings. Paolo designed exactly what I wanted and Dennis did a fantastic job. Super nice, extremely clean, efficient, to the perfection. The structure is rock solid. It is impressive. I will ask them to do many more storage spaces in my flat in a few months. I warmly recommend them. They are just perfect.

Rating: 5 / 5

Excellent work, done on time and on budget. The bookcase has transformed the room. Paolo and his team helped advise on the design and the materials, and were extremely efficient when it came to installation. I could not recommend them highly enough

In mid 2024 we asked several local carpenters to visit to provide quotes for various jobs we wanted to be undertaken including under stairs storage, additional fitted kitchen units and various fitted cupboards and drawers. When Rafal came we knew that he was the right choice before he even sent his quotation, he exhibited calm confidence and also a warm and friendly nature. And we were pleased when his quotes were very competitive. Rafal's work was to an excellent quality. He was clear in what was achievable and good at communicating when modifications to any design were needed to be made. Rafal was great at communicating before and after the work was done, both by WhatsApp and calls, and was amazingly flexible on dates when we needed to adjust due to materials not arriving in time. As a contractor myself, I was very impressed by Rafal's van setup which is super clean and tidy and shows that he takes pride in his work and presentation of himself and his profession. I can highly recommend working with Rafal and we look forward to having him back for additional work.

Rating: 5 / 5

Rafal came by recommendation and has now done several jobs for us fitting custom cupboards in living room and utility, remodelled some of our kitchen and fitted over 70m3 of wooden floor. He is superb, incredibly skilled, tidy, efficient and reliable. We will be getting him back to build fitted wardrobes later this year if he can fit us in. Can’t recommend him enough.

Rating: 5 / 5

I’m very pleased with our shelving and cupboards in our living room. Rafal helped us design and build and was very open to our ideas. He provided a competitive quote, arrived on time and completed all the work on time. He is also easy to work with. I am looking forward to having more work done by Rafal in the future.

We are overjoyed with our new wardrobes and dressing table. Very happy with the entire process from working with us on the design, comprehension of the brief, cleanliness/tidiness, reliability and most importantly workmanship and the finished products! Would not hesitate to recommend and hope to use for many future projects.

Absolutely delighted with our new cupboards. John is a real pro and a lovely guy. Couldn't recommend him enough.

Rating: 5 / 5

John worked on the eaves unit for our loft conversion area. We are very pleased with his work; it looks even better than we had imagined. He was efficient and immensely professional, always following up with any questions we had and working to schedule. His commitment to the work and his skills produced a high-quality final job that now we are very pleased to have in our loft room. The area was left neat and clean and we would definitely use him again!

Rating: 5 / 5

John has previously made some alcove shelves for us so I knew he’d do a great job of fitted wardrobes. They were made up and colour matched off-site so the fitting took less than a day and mess free. Really happy with these beautiful period style wardrobes which have a handy pull down rail. John also did rounded corners on request which we love.

Rating: 5 / 5

I had been looking for a while to get some alcove cupboards and shelves made and after speaking to a few companies I decided to hire John for the work. The final product is of exceptional quality and John was able to install it all within one day. It has transformed our living room! John was great in giving advice on shelves and depth of cupboards and his communication throughout the process was excellent. I would highly recommend John. I’m hoping to get more of his work done in the future.

Excellent job!! I contacted these guys in the morning and they was able to mount my tv the same day. Showed up on time and superb customer service. Kept my living room mess free which is a plus as i have a toddler (there was only dust from the drilling which was expected and was tidy up after) Super happy with the job and my tv looks fab on the wall. I highly recommend and i will be definitely be using them again in the future.

I’m so pleased to say that I had a great experience with Swift Handy Works! I had a few really tricky general repairs to do, which were all done properly and to a very high standard. Raoul was professional and polite and really cared about getting the work done right-not just quickly. Though they were so busy they kept in great contact and really made an effort to come as soon as they could. Highly recommend.

Ricky is fantastic. He is professional and very responsive and he is my go to when it comes to household work. He is knowledgeable, affordable and also very friendly. I have used Ricky plenty of times and will continue to use his services in the future. Cannot recommend him enough. If you need a reliable handyman then Ricky is the man *****

We are always nervous to hire people from gumtree but was very happy with his service. We required him to disassemble furniture (before we changed our carpet) and then reassemble furniture afterwards again. He not only did this, but also fixed our bed which was broken off the headboard. Very pleased and will be contacting him again for future jobs.
