The Best Carpenters in Horne, Surrey, United Kingdom (2025)

We cannot recommend Matthew and his team highly enough. They recently designed, made and installed bookcases/ cabinets in our home office and we are absolutely delighted with them. Matthew guided us through the process from initial design discussions to the installation, with care and complete professionalism. He advised us at every stage of the process and considered everything down to the smallest of details. The end result is better than we had hoped for.

In writing this review, I believe I will echo the extremely positive position of all Matthew's customers. Matthew engaged with us to design and build custom furniture for a dining-room/study. Throughout our engagement, Matthew's needs analysis, design recommendations and attention to detail were superb. The team worked collaboratively with us throughout the build and installation in a friendly professional manner. We are delighted and cannot recommend Matthew and his team enough.

Matthew and his team designed our master bedroom and dressing room wardrobes. From the initial meeting with Matthew at his workshop, to the completion, the whole team have been professional, timely, efficient and friendly. The process has been very smooth with information regarding installation dates being communicated frequently. Upon completion of the wardrobes, we decided that we needed an understair cupboard and Matthew obliged! All of the furniture looks very in keeping with our cottage, is of excellent quality and finish. We cannot recommend Matthew Roberts Carpentry highly enough.

Matthew has been really supportive and patient as we went through the design process for our bookcase. Visiting his workshop and going through all of the options was really useful and helped us understand exactly what we were after, especially seeing where the work would be done. Now the bookcase has been installed we could not be happier and the quality of the work is excellent. I would whole heartedly recommended Matthew for his carpentry.

Paul built fitted wardrobes for our bedroom - he is a fantastic carpenter. He was extremely efficient, friendly and kind and was able complete the whole thing in a day and a half. He was so kind to our little son, who kept trying to join in the building! He has a great eye for design and completes everything he makes to the highest standard. We are so pleased with the end product and can't wait to paint the doors and show them off!

Paul did an amazing job building the built in alcove units. We have just finished painting them and are so pleased with them (just need to buy some more bits and bobs for the shelves now!). Paul was super friendly and professional throughout and was great at checking back in with us around our specific requirements. Thanks Paul!

Paul recently built-in some additional storage cupboards in our kitchen that matched the ones we had already. He did a good job and we would recommend him as a competent tradesman.

We needed built in shelves, desk and cupboard. We contacted Paul from Cuddington Carpentry who completely understood what we wanted and then proceeded to make and fit it. Paul is an expert in what he does and is very friendly. We would recommend him for all your carpentry and joinery needs.

Jonathan installed some kitchen cupboards and drawers for us that needed replacing. He was professional and friendly and took great pride in his work. He really took the time to make sure everything was perfect and how I wanted it. I would definitely recommend him and am planning to use his company again for another project.

Durabuild (Luke and Ben) built a large kitchen extension for us and also rebuilt our utility room and cloakroom. Throughout the project we found Luke and Ben to be highly professional and effective in managing issues and working with our plans. They coordinated a great team of trades around them and were always able to find solutions to issues. They were always punctual and communicated well. They were a pleasure to have in the house during the project, they have a definite "can-do" attitude and the finished build was really great. We have since had them back to fit a new ensuite successfully as a second project and we would be happy to recommend them to anyone contemplating building work.

I highly recommend choosing Durabuild for jobs big and small. Since we found them they have carried out all the work on our house and we wouldn’t choose anyone else. They have done major work including an extensive kitchen renovation and fit and a loft conversion, also smaller jobs like replacing all doors and architraves and replacing the banisters on the stairs. Their work is always carried out to and exceptional standard with as little disruption to the household and neighbours as possible. The site is always left clean and tidy and the same can be said for all of the various trades they bring in to complete the job. Ben and Luke have also been a great source of advice while we have considered doing various projects helping us get the best value from their work and enhancement to the property.

Durabuild replaced and extended my dingey old bathroom into a beautiful new modern one that I'm still loving today, making great suggestions along the way, which completely transformed it! Punctual, practical and reliable, with a very clearly deep knowledge of the building trade and project management as a whole. Would absolutely use again. Thank you guys

Durabuild completed a side extension and loft conversion for us in 2024. It was quite a substantial project and we stayed living in our house during the whole work. Ben and Luke made this experience so much easier. They were great at communicating and keeping us informed on what was happening and what was coming up. We are so pleased with the finish they provided and highly recommend them to friends and family. We will definitely go back to them again for future projects.

I originally found Clint and the gang on Facebook. I’m over the moon I did as they have been excellent!! Very responsive and absolutely spot on with their work. Would highly recommend

Clint and the Oak Hill Carpentry team have worked on numerous high-end residential projects across Surrey for the building contractor I work for. They’ve undertaken the full carpentry package inc. roof structure, 1st Fix, 2nd Fix & Finals, (along with anything else you need a hand with!). Clint and the team consistently deliver a professional service and high quality craftsmanship. Highly recommended for any carpentry needs!

The team at Clint’s carpentry are very professional and experts in their trade. A mutual contractor recommended Clint to us and we are pleased to have worked with the them. The contract was completed to schedule and price and Clint also managed to find time to complete various other carpentry works for us to push other areas of the project along - very accommodating and reliable. I would highly recommend Clint’s Carpentry and hope to build on our business relationship moving forward. Thank you Clint and Team

Clint has built a new partition wall and suspended ceiling in our squash club. The work is excellent and he's a pleasure to deal with! Very happy to recommend him.....

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 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.

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

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!

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

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.

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...

Toby designed and fitted some beautiful cupboards for us. We Have been using them for 6 months now, can tell the quality is good- absolutely no problems. Brilliant communication and also allowed us to change the design (from shaker style to a more traditional finish) at last minute which didn’t affect the final quote.

Toby and his colleague Aaron replaced all of our old internal doors with 13 new oak doors which have transformed the look of our house. Toby was very responsive to questions before the work and was the only provider I asked to quote who responded quickly in fact within 24 hours. He suggested slightly different doors to those I proposed which while of the same quality were slightly cheaper. The work was undertaken in a very professional manner and we are very pleased with the outcome and in fact are considering having further work done by Militao Carpentry. They were happy working round our inquisitive dogs, protected the carpets, cleared up at the end of each day (the work took a week) and were always polite and flexible. I would happily recommend.

Toby has done further work for us adding hooks mounted on oak to the back of a door. Super job again. Toby did a top job, replacing all our bedroom doors. We're very pleased with the doors and the quality of the work is excellent. We will definitely use Militao again when we need bespoke carpentry completed.

I asked Ryan to install a shed, what he did was above and beyond the call of duty, he removed two tons of soil and a load of other trash. Installed a perfect shed on an imperfect base, negotiated wonderfully with a tenant and project managed a waste collection job. Honestly I should have paid him more. He’s brilliant.

I found Orchard Carpentry via Trust a Trader website. Ryan communicates extremely well and has over delivered on the quality of the projects I asked for. Ryan provides a thoughtful and detailed service, considering all issues and resolving. He produced custom made shelving for two rooms and his attention to detail is second to none. My wife and I are very happy indeed. The price was very fair too, not cheap but not expensive. We will be using Ryan for our kitchen refit, within the next few months, as well as any other carpentry requirements. I wholeheartedly recommend Orchard Carpentry.

Ryan and Lewis did a fantastic job installing two new interior doors, adjusting four others, and adjusting, draughtproofing and installing a new lock on the front door. Ryan has a great reputation and is in high-demand, so lead times before work starts can be long. However, once the team starts work they are tidy and efficient and the work is high quality. We had one follow-up issue with the front door being too tight, and Ryan returned to fix the problem within two days of contact. Overall fantastic service and highly recommend.

Ryan and Lewis recently fitted my new kitchen. It was very easy to liaise with them and they were responsive to requests throughout, making helpful suggestions and coordinating the other trades as work progressed. The attention to detail was impressive and this shows in the final result. I am very happy with the work and would definitely use Orchard Carpentry again should the need arise.
