Dean was very helpful and reliable, really nice to deal with and the work has been great. Not that I've needed it, but I know he would come back and make any minor alterations if I wanted them which is great to know. Fast work, tidy, neat, and quality at a pretty good price. I will definitely use him again and recommend him.Karina
We have a few jobs in need of an experienced carpenter:
1. We have an existing kitchen cupboard which needs to be adapted to accommodate our new boiler - we think it is possible to cut out the bottom of the carcass to allow it to fit.
2. Our external french doors no longer close properly. We think they may have dropped on hinges as they drag at the bottom. We've sanded but hasn't helped. The seals have now come off and drafts get through.
3. We have antique locks on our internal doors, and the doors do not close properly. We were told that we could potentially recondition the locks but we need further advice and help to fit, etc.
If you can help with any of these 3 jobs, please get in touch! I appreciate they are slightly varied, but I think an experienced joiner/carpenter could help with all?
Stephen was a lifesaver for us after being let down by other tradesmen. He completed a few 'difficult' jobs (plumbing, building, doors/locks), where others said it was not possible. He offered simple and creative solutions, and was meticulous in his work. When he came across poor workmanship, he fixed it (burying exposed cable into wall, connecting rangehood, filling gaping holes in brickwork from poor plumbing practice in the past). We asked him to do more jobs already, and recommend him highly. Sandy

I would not hesitate to recommend him. The job was more difficult than expected but he handled it in both a professional and relaxed manner. He was warm and friendly but worked hard as well.Steph

Very responsive and friendly - delivered on job very quickly and did everything by time he said he would. One of shelves is not quite how we would have liked it but appreciated there were limitations to work around ATHENE

we have 4 narrow sash and one sash bay window that need repairing - a couple have broken cords, the others have varying degrees of weather damage to the frames (might just need sanding an d repainting, might be a bit more drastic).
Please note that the budget I've put below is a complete guestimate - I've never had to get a quote for this so I have no idea what it should cost

I have an 8ft wardrobe door in the bedroom which has a built in mirror covering the majority of it.
The mirror now has a crack through the middle of it, so this needs taking out and replacing with a new mirror that I can supply..
The rest of the door is fine, it's just the mirror which needs replacing.
thanks

Hi all,
Due to recent burglaries in the area, I need to fit 2 locks (yale & mortice) to an external door/gate. The existing gate is wooden and may be a bit thin for locks - probably best if you come have a look so you know what is required!
I am prepared to pay over the estimated price.
