The Best Carpenters in Ashton In Makerfield, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

Excellent!!! That’s the only word for Alex, very professional and great service. Very responsive and came back with a great quote. All work completed on time and left as if he had never been there. No mess at all. Respected our property at all times. Messaged him a few weeks after the job had finished and he responded within minutes. Wouldn’t hesitate in using him again

Alex converted a probably non compliant dark staircase into the focal point of the house. We love the new stair and the balustrading and it's transformed the house. Alex's attention to detail is fantastic, he does a lot of research and prep to make sure you understand what you're getting and explains the options at each step. He's also a very talented carpenter. Top job, great value.

We had a complete stair removal and new staircase installed. Alex was brilliant, very professional, kept in touch throughout the whole process and was a joy to have in our home. Each day everywhere was tidied up before he left. We are very pleased with our new staircase and have had lots of compliments about it. Thank you so much, Alex. Ours was not the easiest of staircases to install, it being an old house with walls not very straight, but Alex sorted everything out with ease. I would definitely recommend Alex to anyone wanted a new or refurbished staircase.

I would highly recommend Alex, he did a fantastic job on my stair renovation at a reasonable price. He was very efficient & obviously is very knowledgeable and experienced in this line of work, he even managed to fix my creaky stairs which was a big bonus 😊. Have already recommended him to other friends. (before & after pics)

Couldn’t thank Kieron & Sam enough for their incredible bespoke joinery in our new home. From start to finish, they were so thorough, professional & we could not have asked for a more perfect result. The quality of the joinery is perfection. Would highly recommend for any project- big or small! We love the finished product- everything we wanted and more!

Sam and his team undertook a garage conversion for us and replaced some internal doors. They did an excellent job and the quality of workmanship is first class. Sam coordinated the various tradespeople brilliantly and the work was carried out within the stated timescales. The team are polite, courteous, professional, hard-working, and very tidy and punctual. We're delighted with the finished outcome and Sam and his team are highly recommended.

Sam and the team have just completed our garage conversion and we're really happy with the finished result, it's exactly what we wanted. Sam has made the process straight forward and stress free from the start. He has been really communicative, professional and organised. He has a great attention to detail, as do the rest of the team, every single element was well considered! The finished work is of a high quality and better than we could have imagined. The whole team were really lovely and a pleasure to have around! We'd highly recommend S R Bell Carpentry and wouldn't hesitate to use them again for any future projects!

I couldn’t speak highly enough of Sam and his team in the completion of our garage conversion. Sam was thorough throughout from the initial quotation to organising all the workmen needed, it really felt like such an easy process with him guiding us through. There were no hidden costs, we paid exactly what was quoted. Sam and Ben were extremely polite and friendly and always involved us in decision making with the build. The standard of the work is absolute quality and I would not hesitate to use again for any other jobs we may require. The kids love their new playroom, thankyou so much!

Jordan designed and built cabinets, shelving and desk space for our home office. He had good ideas for the use of the space, his workmanship was high quality and he was very professional. My personal favourite was the space for our coats & shoes! We were so pleased with the results and would recommend him for similar work.

We are very happy with Jordan’s work, the media unit / book case has exceeded our expectations. Jordan was very receptive to our requests and he paid great attention to detail. We received many compliments from friends and family. We highly reccomend Jordan.

Can’t rate Jordan’s work and communication highly enough. He has absolutely transformed our lounge with the shelving he has designed and fitted (requested a larger base to support our tv and he managed it without it looking monstrous). Everyone that visits is wowed by the work he has done. It was such a pleasure to deal with Jordan, that I asked him back to redo my sons wardrobes and shelves. Again impeccable, speedy work with great comms. He’s also just a really friendly, genuine guy.

Jordan is not just a fantastic craftsman but is polite, punctual and reliable. Turns up when he says he's going to and keeps you updated if there are any schedule changes. He's done a couple of jobs for us now and we are delighted with the results. Would absolutely recommend him.

Craig and Steve put us a media wall in the living room and I can’t rate them highly enough ! The service they provided and the attention to detail was spot on. Great value and service throughout. If your thinking of needing any work doing then look no further than bishop interiors they really will provide you with a great service but more importantly excellent finish 👍

The guys were brilliant! The work they have done is awesome but they were very polite, always on time and told us exactly what their plans were for the next day and it was completed each time! It looks fantastic and we are very happy with it!!

I would highly recommend Bishop interiors, the workmanship is 1st class, the guys work non stop, and always seek feedback for the various options available, you really can pick and choose your own options, all the way throughout the construction. All that is left to do, is for us to select a colour we wish to paint It,(we chose white) if you are looking for a Media wall, in my opinion you won't get better than Bishop interiors, and at a very reasonable price.

Never did I thought I would have my dream wardrobes become a reality. I highly highly recommend Bishop. They took my vision and turned it into a stunning, breathtaking reality. Steve and Craig were incredible throughout the entire process. They were delivered on time and exceeded all my expectations. Thank you so much Steve and Craig! You guys are incredible!

Brilliant service. Came and sorted 3 internal doors for us. Quick, professional and friendly. Really fair price for the quality of the work. Would highly recommend.

Needed a job doing urgently and he was able to fit me in. Was very accommodating. Communicated well and got the job done, of removing a kitchen cabinet quickly and efficiently. Would recommend!

Reliable professional service with a same-day call-out. I was pleased with the works completed, which were done so to a high standard. Without compromising on quality, I was fortunate to benefit from the same day call-out and clear, polite and friendly communication to arrange a suitable time for us both. If I ever need works completed again, this is who I’m giving the first call.

Manchester Carpentry did amazing job on my storage cupboard—great quality, professional, and exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend!" Thank you

Adrian did a great job fitting my three doors. He was methodical, tidy and has a caring attitude to his work. I would without a doubt get him to do further work for me in the future.

Just had Adrian in fitting nice oak panelled doors. Work to a high standard, clean worker and nothing too much trouble. Booked him to come back to do some other we in December. Well priced. Pleasure to have a proper craftsman. Highly recommend.

Adrian is an amazing joiner. He interpreted my ideas perfectly. I wanted to reuse materials I had, no problem. His workmanship is first class. He helped me get the job done quickly. I am so happy to have found him online and I’m more than happy to recommend him. Thanks Adrian I’m chuffed to bits

Highly recommend Adrian. Lovely guy and his work was exceptional. We had a couple of cabinets and shelves installed and the job was done to a very high standard. He was also very conscious about cleaning up after the job. Thanks again Adrian!

An excellent company to deal with. Vale of Wigan have both renovated our stairs and also installed understairs pullout & cupboard storage. Both jobs were carried out professionally, within agreed timescales and costs and we are delighted with the quality of the finished job. The workmen were professional and friendly, and company management excelled in their service levels, listening to our needs and answering/resolving our queries and any snags. Often the measure of a company is how they deal with you from the initial enquiry, installation and aftersales service - so a Gold Star ⭐ to management and their team. Highly recommended.

We are delighted with our oak and glass staircase renovation completed in December 2024; it certainly lives up to our expectations. We visited the showroom and found exactly what we were looking for at a competitive price. After a home visit to measure up and verify details, it took only 5 days to totally transform our staircase. We would highly recommend this company. Many thanks Chad, Shane and Mike. Mr and Mrs Bell, Halifax

I cant reccomend modernise your stairs enough. They have been a pleasure to work with from start to finish. As you can see in the photos they have installed an oak staircase with glass panels and i am made up with how it turned out. The lads doing the job were always on time, very proffesional, respectful and always left after cleaning up and leaving it in a safe and tidy condition. If your at all considering modernise your stairs for a job i would 100% reccomend them. They have a great show room aswell to pick out exactly what you want.

If you want the WOW factor in your home these are the team to do it. From first contact to finished job they are excellent, but you must ask for Anthony who is an outstanding craftsman, great personality and professional, ( his only fault is he’s a Leeds United supporter) only joking. This company is 5 star in every dept,. Thanks , Anthony, Chad, Shane

Tony was brilliant from start to finish. Really friendly and professional. Made sure we were happy with the build every step of the way. The cupboard was completed quickly, is good and solid and a high quality build. Would recommend without hesitation.

Can’t even begin to describe how happy we are with the work Tony has done! He has transformed our house to a home! His workmanship is great, and leaves every room spotless! He even fitted a washing machine for me after being let down! Next level service! Thank you so much!

Joinery & Cabinet Making We are so pleased with the finished result on our alcove shelves, they look fantastic. Tony is very talented and nothing is too much trouble. He gave us good advice but allowed the job to evolve as he went along, to give us exactly what we hoped for. Really nice fella and spent ages tidying up! Will be using again and recommending to friends

Delighted to have found Tony, he fitted skirting and adjusted and few doors on a house renovation I'm managing. All the work was completed to a really high standard and I couldn't be happier with the work completed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tony and I'll definitely be using him again in a few weeks time when I have more work available.

Gyles made a bespoke dog crate for our dog and it’s fab! We wanted an item of furniture that was multifunctional and which blended in with the rest of our home. Gyles was great at talking to us about our ideas and making sure that he made exactly what we’d had in mind for us. Thank you!

Great service from Gyles at Old Toms Workshop, I needed a desk top for an electric stand up desk, good communication and the finished desk top looks great.

Gyles has made us 3 beautiful oak cottage style doors, the quality and workmanship is second to none. Absolutely beautiful and we are very happy with his professionalism and service provided from start to finish. Clean and tidy within the property, old house provided Gyles with many obstacles, odd size frames and movement within the property but he worked his magic and the end result is exactly what we requested. Highly recommend

We had an excellent experience with Old Tom's Workshop, for a bespoke table extension. Tasked with the challenge of extending a solid oak live edge dining table, Gyles delivered a stunning piece that perfectly complements the existing table. Gyles was both patient and professional throughout the process. He skillfully used a more affordable wood veneer, while seamlessly edging it in real oak to maintain the live edge look. The result is a beautiful table extension crafted to the highest standards, all at an affordable price. Highly recommended!

Small purchase. Very helpful yard staff. Nice straight timber and good prices. This will be my goto for future purchases.

Top team, great value prices, everything you need as a joiner. 100%

Best timber merchant around by miles. Pricing, stock availability and flexibility to be able to machine (basic only) materials for you. You'll not beat their price and quality for the public anywhere in Wigan and probably other areas. Speak with Gary, top bloke that's really helpful. They all are to ne fair. Cheers lads amd ladies of course.

Always used this place. A good stock of everything you could need in this trade. Great staff, always friendly, professional and easy to have a laugh with. Which I think is important. Overall a great experience dealing with them.
