About
Hello! I'm Andre Van der Walt from APJ Carpentry & Joinery and have been working as a Carpenter / Joiner for over 20 years. Based in the East Midlands, I'm highly skilled and passionate about my work, and whether you require help with small jobs in the house, outdoor work, or custom-made bespoke pieces, I guarantee excellent quality and services completed in a very timely manner.
Over my career I have created hundreds of bespoke pieces, from kitchen cupboards, tables and shelving units, to full staircases, walk-in units, loft conversions and even a 40ft traditional wooden Viking Longboat as lead boat builder for a big international expedition!
Alongside bespoke pieces I frequently work on home improvements such as hanging doors, creating outdoor decking areas in gardens and fixing existing pieces of furniture. No job is too big or small!
Please get in touch with any questions you may have and I will be happy to help.

Blind / Curtain / Shutter - Installation
Very polite, softly spoken young man who did various jobs for me at a reasonable rate. Very happy with all the work he did and have another list of jobs for him to do next week! He obviously knew what he was doing. He took away the old tank for me and the old dishwasher which was very helpful. He fitted shelves in the old redundant dishwasher and shelves in the big old bathroom cupboard. He also put up a new blind. I thought his quote was really reasonable and paid him a bit extra as I was so pleased. Anne

Andre was very good . Very pleased with the workmanship and the time it took to complete the job. I didn’t even have to clean up afterwards. Andre brought his own vacuum cleaner and did it himself . Can really recommend him and we wouldn’t hesitate to ask him for more jobs in the future
Andre was very quick emailing me to arrange the initial visit to our house and finally making arrangements to do the job. He was punctual and he cleaned all areas were he worked. He just got on with it and wasted no time. I definitely would employ him again.
Andre from APJ Carpentry and Joinery has completed a number of jobs for us including fixing our side gate (which we thought we would need to replace), fixing and resizing our greenhouse and shed doors, resizing large wooden planters to fit our garden space, adding guttering and water butts around our shed and a number of other bits inside our house! Punctual, hard working and excellent quality of work.
Andre added custom shelving to our built in wardrobe to give us a considerable amount more space and also built/converted a chest of drawers into a built in unit with hidden storage and side shelving to make much better use of the alcove space in the room. Really pleased with the quality of work.
