The Best Carpenters in Hertfordshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Great quality reliable work. Proper carpenters and joiners.

Highly recommended..we needed a vital repair to a balcony deck carried out urgently because of a deadline. Graham was extremely accommodating and helpful and the work carried out by Terry was excellent and professional. Very good value for money. Will use them again if need arises

Needed an interior door supplied and fitted with adjustments made to the door frame. Bryan got back to me promptly, showed up on time for the job. Completed the work to a high standard and on top of that, lovely bloke. Would definitely use again.

We used Bryan to make us some custom fitted wardrobes for our dressing room. His work was absolutely first class and he was really helpful. His advice was invaluable and I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking for a carpenter! On top of that he was a really nice guy, always cheerful, he worked with us to make our ideas come to fruition and we are so happy with the finished product. Thanks Bryan, we'll be recommending you to all our friends!

Having recently had a bespoke box stand and speaker unit installed for my turntables, I was only too happy to leave a review for BM Carpentry. Bryan is competitively priced, attentive to detail and a pleasure to be around. Would recommend him without reservation.

Bryan has done lots of work for us and it's all been great. He has done skirting boards. New doors supply and hanging. Replaced floorboards. Reinforced Stairs. Made bespoke cupboard doors. He adapted an existing frame to fit our fireplace to create a media centre. All done to great quality. Highly Recommended!

Excellent - would highly recommend! Stepan is a rare find - an honest, reasonable, hardworking, professional, experienced and knowledgeable nice guy with high standards, who owns/corrects any mistakes without any fuss. We've worked with many tradespeople through the course of our extension and renovation and we're most impressed by Lee Valley Carpentry and Joinery (my kids love him too)! We had no hesitation recommending him to my in-laws, where Stepan changed all their doors too.

Such a professional service. I found this company on Google when looking for carpenters in my local area. I had a bannister fitted and I could not be happier with the final look. Stepan was great at communicating and getting back to me, first to come and look at what work would need to be done and then to actually book a date in. He is so talented and really took his time to ensure every piece was correctly fitted. So happy with our new bannister!

Stephan built a customised cupboard to accommodate my mega flow and washing machine / dryer, as well as installing fire doors and creating a cupboard in the corridor for storage. He was diligent and fastidious in undertaking the work and also assisted in ensuring all the relevant materials were on site. He did a fantastic job and I would definitely use him again.

I would like to say a big thank you to Stephan and his team from Lee Valley Carpentry for the amazing work they carried out on my house. They fitted nine doors, all the architraves and skirting through out. There is also a new glass staircase fitted, which is just stunning. Their finish is absolutely amazing, and they also offer aftercare for any faults spotted. He helped with ordering all the materials. His price is very reasonable, and his service is very good, very professional, and trustworthy. They are good at cleaning up after themselves, too. I highly recommend Stephan, and I will be using them for the second half of my house renovation. Thank you Stephan  for the service.

Provided an excellent quality panel for our tv media wall surround. We provided incorrect measurements initially but communication was clear and new panel was sent in fast time to fit with our schedule. We would use their services again. I recommend them.

Cworkshop are a great company and the service they provide is first class, staff are always helpful and friendly. Great range of products and good quality. Delivery service is great and a fair price. I’ve used Cworkshop for many years and will do so into the future.

Have been in the furniture fitting industry for nearly 50 years. Had need for some cut and edged panels so used Cworkshop a their website looked good and was straightforward to use. Panels came in good time and were perfect. Absolutely no chipping of the MFC and dimensions were spot on. I had made an error when ordering, called them up and they were so helpful, redid the wrong panels (my fault) and delivered them to me in very short time. Was able to speak to them on the phone and they always answered any questions I had. Highly recommend.

I used cworkshop for an upgrade to my Ikea Besta units, 20 doors and drawer fronts. The software for inputing the order was easy to use and allowed 100% control of the dimensions and finish. When I had any questions, Lawrence and the team answered them promptly. Using cworkshop was an excellent decision and I now have a completely unique piece of furniture.

Brilliant service! We sought a recommended company as it was our first time looking to have bespoke joinery made. And we're so pleased with the results. Being new to the service, we didn't know what we wanted and West Oak were incredibly helpful and patient particularly as we're a little fussy. Their advice on designs and unlimited array of woods were fantastic. I will be recommending you to my family and friends, thank you!

It is a delight to have worked with West Oak Joinery Ltd on many of our projects. From conception to delivery Trevor and his team are friendly and knowledgeable. We look forward to working together on many more future projects.

When we set about building our retirement home some years ago we were rigorous in researching the reputation of those who would do the work. As we'd decided not to employ a builder but to supervise the construction ourselves, we were very much in the hands of individual contractors, so their skills and trustworthiness were fundamental. The house, set in the heart of a lovely country estate, was the apogee of a lifelong dream for me and my husband -- to make an English home that was classical but not a pastiche. Of all the design elements, we realised, one of the most critical in determining real quality would be the woodwork. The contractor we chose to deliver that was West Oak Joinery, a well-established family-run local firm. It was quickly evident to us that owner Trevor Cox and his obliging, skilful staff had both the capacity and imagination -- and the patience -- to turn our vague concepts into elegant reality. At every level their handiwork was perfect; usefully large polished English oak doors framed in pleasingly wide architrave, exquisite wainscotting, radiator boxing and panelling, glazed dining-room cupboards, built-in library shelving and a graceful, imposing staircase; everywhere workmanship of the highest order, expertly installed and, after years in place, showing no sign of movement. West Oak is a company we would recommend without reservation -- Christine and Roddy Kennedy

Trevor and the team have provided me with a faultless service for more than 15 years. No job is ever to small or large. The quality of service throughout is always exemplary. The attention to detail and correspondences from the initial contact, to the drawing office and then to the joinery shop and out to delivery, is just as you’d expect from a first class business. I would have no hesitation with recommending West Oak Joinery to anyone requiring their services. Keep doing what you’re doing guys. Andy Morey Senior Project Manager
