Top Carpenters in Allington, Kent

Darren and the team removed and replaced the Cowl on our Oast house. They were exceptionally efficient when on site, with thorough updates and checks prior to the delivery date ensuring that we were in a good position for the installation of the new cowl. All of the team that we dealt with were positive and polite and I would happily recommend or use their services again.

Darren, his son Brandon, and their carpentry team did a stellar restoration of our Oast cowl.

The cowl was rotten as it had not been well maintained: the rotting wood could be seen from the ground.

The repair work took about 3 weeks - perfectly reasonable for the various coats of paint that go on top of new timber.
We are very happy with the results and will be using D&A for future maintenance.

It was astonishing to see them at work removing and refitting: fearless at such a height.

Very pleased with the work that Darren and his team at Dude and Arnette carried out recently for me. When I discovered that the middle of my 3 cowls was leaning backwards and had nothing supporting it Darren was on site within a few hours. Scaffolding was erected quickly and the replacement to all 3 Cowls was carried out in just over a week. Would recommend them without hesitation to anyone. Their service is second to none and for anyone who hasn’t had their cowls serviced… call Darren and get it done before it costs you thousands! Thanks again Darren

Darren and his team replaced our cowl this year and also re-roofed and insulated our kiln very recently. Darren and his entire team are incredibly professional, personable, reliable, do an outstanding job at a reasonable price whilst using top quality materials, are always very accommodating and always responsive. I cannot recommend them highly enough. We have always used them for our work on our Oast and will continue to do so. Their roof work was exceptional and very efficient. Look no further.

Dude & Arnette provided a first-class service, from project conception to execution and fitting. The cowl itself is beautiful and will hopefully be in service for many years to come. I have been dealing with tradesmen for most of my life, and it is fair to say that Darren and his team rank among the very best. If you need a new cowl for your Oast House or have an old one refurbished/repaired, turn to Darren. Ulrich
