Stephen fitted laminate flooring and trims in two of our bedrooms. Very professional, explained progress and left the rooms spotless after work. Very happy with the finish and the work carried out. Would highly recommend.

Luke has done a lot of work for us.... and there is still quite a bit to do! It is a real pleasure working with him: polite, friendly, helpful, punctual and he always delivers a very high standard quality work. No job is too big or too small, too difficult or too easy, he will simply do it beautifully. John and I really value his help and the excellent work he has done for us. We couldn't have achieved what we have without him! Thank you Luke!

Excellent craftsmanship by Luke in repairing garage door and fitting new windowsills. Luke is polite and professional in his communication & takes care to work tidily.

Focus Carpentry (Luke) are a fantastic little Gem of a tradesperson to keep in your armoury. Luke communicated well with us throughout the duration of his work and it was completed, on time and on budget (his prices were well bellow competitive quotes). Luke is a master of his trade in my opinion. He cared about the works that he did for us and was a pleasure to have around the house I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Luke and the services that he provides. He is more of a cabinet maker in my opinion but the only compounds my belief that he is a true master of his trade. CHEERS LUKE - GILES & NADEAN ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Luke was very helpful in my refurb. He did various jobs including skirting boards, external repairs, wardrobe removal and more. He’s polite, calm, tidy and I’d recommend him to anyone that needs general carpentry work carried out. Thanks Luke

Ollie and the team were superb from start to finish. At the beginning we needed some help with the design of our outside office. Ollie was great and sat down and sketched out a few ideas with us. He followed up quickly and stayed in contact on a regular basis, before providing us with a detailed, clear quote shortly after our first meeting. During the build it was great to have him and the team on site, very respectful, professional and all round it was a pleasure. Any decisions/discussions during the build were open and easy, we always felt like we knew our options and the pros & cons of each. The whole project was on time if not early and even came in under budget. The quality of the finished office is excellent, so good in fact we've booked him in for another job already. Thanks again!!

I cannot recommend Oliver Smith Carpentry more highly. He and his team are part of a new generation of professionals - fastidious, careful, super-professional and serious about their work, unquestionably trustworthy, always cleaning up at the end of the day. We just wanted our garage converted into a useable space, what we now have is a fabulous room - thoroughly insulated, fireproof, airy, pleasant and handed over niggle free. It's a pleasure to be in there. All through the process (only 3 weeks) Oliver and his team worked hard, always on time, always calm and responsive to our requests and last-minute changes of mind. I just wish we had more projects for him to do as I'd book him like a shot. (and, truthfully, this is an unbiased review - we did not know Oliver before this job).

Ollie and team built a great looking, quality, home garden office room/building. Built to a really quality spec that will last a long time, this professional team completed the build on time, and price. Ollie was flexible where I wanted to add some small extras and increase the size a little; a true bespoke build. If you're looking for a home office in Surrey I would genuinely recommend Oliver Smith Carpentry Solutions.

Tom has provided the highest levels of customer service and professionalism, being punctual, responsive, tidy, respectful of us and our home, not to mention being knowledgeable, highly skilled, dependable and carrying the work out to a high standard. He also recommended a plasterer who we were similarly pleased with. We have a few more jobs booked in with Tom, and we won’t be looking elsewhere for help with future works. Thank you Tom! Works completed: Curtain poles Shelves Filling holes Knocking out built in cupboard and making good (re routing plumbing) New door architrave Light fittings Just updating this review to say that we have had the most immaculate bathroom installed by Tom, his attention to detail is second to none, and he is patient and considerate to make sure everything looks just right!

Brilliant service provided by Tom from A24 Property Maintenance. He removed an old shower enclosure and installed a new one for us and I can thoroughly recommend him. The job was carried out cleanly and professionally. I would definitely use A24 for any further work.

If there is something in your home that you've always wanted to have done, but you're waiting to find the right person to do it, well you've just struck gold by finding Tom at A24 Property Maintenance in Dorking. His skills as a craftsman are first class from bespoke carpentry to more heavy duty foundation work in the garden. A recent example of his excellence and high standards are on show every day in our house: Tom built a dividing wall to screen off our lounge. It is inch-perfect, seamless and has made the downstairs space work so much better in a busy house. Tom is courteous and mindful of you and your home when he is there. He is reliable and a good communicator about the work that he is doing for you. He is tidy, too. Lastly, you know when Tom has done some work on your home: it's perfect and has the hallmark of a craftsman who takes pride in his work. Can't recommend A24 Property Maintenance enough: First Class.

Tom is the tradesperson that I've been looking for since buying my house 3 years ago. He originally came to quote for fitting internal doors and I've since gone back to him for creating shelving in my boiler cupboard, boarding my loft (and fitting a new ladder), fitting a new kitchen tap and fixing my porch with new boarding. Whatever the job is, whether small or big, Tom gives the same professionalism and high standards, he works hard and diligently, he's such a nice person to be around and he's trustworthy. It's so important to me to have someone that I trust and have confidence in to do a good job and Tom is that person. He gets my top marks and I'd recommend him for any job.

Challenge Neal with any space and he'll make a brilliant unit or cupboard to fit! Highly recommend, especially for shoe storage when it's impossible to find the right unit anywhere else. Reasonably priced, efficient, courteous and very professional. You can't really go wrong!

Neal built and fitted a pair of bespoke shaker wardrobes as part of our house renovation. The workmanship and quality are great, with meticulous attention to detail, i just need to paint them now...

Rating: 5 / 5

We first employed Neil to build a bespoke storage unit in our utility room. Neil was fantastic. He was great at translating our ideas into paper and worked quickly and efficiently. We were so happy with the work, we asked him to build bespoke wardrobes for our master and second bedroom. He has done a brilliant job and the end product exceeded our expectations. I would definitely recommend Neil.

Rating: 5 / 5

Neil is diligent, professional and very adaptable. He works hard and takes great pride in the end result. He built complicated bespoke wardrobes for our master bedroom and walk in wardrobe. We were so pleased we then added 2 further bedroom given the great job he had done

Excellent service and work from the team to create bespoke carpentry for my laundry area. Great communication from the start and throughout the project. The team were thoughtful and meticulous with the design and build and I’m really pleased with the quality and finish. Would certainly recommend.

Superb job by Richard and the team on my garden transformation! Professional from start to finish and a pleasure to have around during the course of the works. Couldn’t recommend them enough. Photos showing before and after; Richard has made my garden much more usable, safe and above all beautiful!

Richard and his team were an absolute joy to work with - friendly, professional, and skilled. We are so happy with our new pergola, it is exactly what we wanted - thanks Barnwood Carpentry!

Rating: 5 / 5

Really good experience. It was great to find a well established company that was not only prepared to take on a small bespoke job, but did quality work and was also reasonably priced. They treated us, and the job, with respect and professionalism. The job itself was building a bespoke hallway cupboard which they did really nicely. It looks great and fits perfectly in the space.

Ben and Craig have just completely refurbished our kitchen and it looks amazing. They tick all the boxes that you could want ticked when looking for building professionals. They are considerate, tidy and their eye for detail is brilliant with nothing seeming to be too much trouble. If you are looking for a lovely couple of guys to complete work well then these are the ones for you. Thanks so much..... awesome job.

Ben and Craig undertook the development work of converting two of our farm buildings into a shop and butchery and installed a new toilet and shower block for our campsite. This was a large development project; 4 months in duration, with ambitious deadlines. With our limited knowledge and experience of undertaking such a project, Ben and Craig were integral to the planning process and ensuring that our ideas translated into something that would work in practice. Ben and Craig dealt with all of the challenges of our old buildings without fuss or difficulty. In fact there was a plentiful supply of constructive ideas to deal with any issues arising, cost effectiveness and future proofing the development. At every stage of our project Ben and Craig’s communication was timely and showed consideration for pressures on our own time. They took on most of the liaising with the building control inspector and were proactive in working with the company that undertook the ground works. Something that was of great value to us was the planning and consideration shown by Ben and Craig to allow us to continue to run our business at our busiest time of year: as well as working around other activities that were happening on the farm. The work that Ben and Craig have done is a key part of the future success of our business and so far our customer feedback has been excellent. We cannot recommend them highly enough; yes they are busy, but they go out of their way to ensure an all round top class job; before, during and after the project.

Ben & Craig from Howard and Sturt make a brilliant team - efficient, hard working, tidy and professional. Any other trades people involved in the project have also delivered the same high standards. They have done a superb job fitting our new kitchen as well as carrying out some work in the garden (which included decking and creating a bench) and we are delighted with both. They offer very competitive prices without compromising on standard and have delivered excellent attention to detail throughout. We would highly recommend them and are already planning our next project for them...!

Craig and Ben have just fitted our new kitchen, and we are delighted with it. They are a professional, tidy, polite, hard-working team, and they use only the best tradesmen to work alongside them. The work was completed in less than 2 weeks, and was done at the original quoted cost. Cannot recommend Howard and Sturt highly enough. Thank you!!👍
