   I can???t comment on the quality of the carpentry itself, as the work was never carried out and it may well be excellent. However, my experience with the service was very disappointing. John pulled out of the scheduled job at the last minute, which left me in a difficult position. I had other trades booked in around the agreed schedule, so the cancellation caused disruption to the rest of my renovation project and made it much harder to keep everything on track. If you???re looking for someone who is reliable and turns up when they???ve committed to a date, I would recommend looking elsewhere. Based on my experience, I wouldn???t use this carpenter again.

   John has laid a hardwood floor in my lounge and has done a thoroughly professional job - he has fitted wooden skirting and oak beading around the fireplace and the end product looks superb. I live in a Victorian house and John has renovated a pine casing which goes around the stairs - this involved some very delicate and intricate carpentry work around areas that are curved around glass and required curved beading which he hand made. The renovation required very skilled craftsmanship which meant that he was able to reinstate the original features. I am extremely pleased with a fantastic ourcome.

   John fitted us a new (old) front door and surrounding frame/windows to replace the existing. The finished result is far better than we had envisaged. John is an incredibly skilled craftsman. The job was competitively priced, finished quickly and to a very high standard. We would wholeheartedly recommend John and will be contacting him for future work.

   John replaced our original front door and side panels which did not have safety glass. He built a new Oak frame our with new glass panels, finishing off with trim and making good the new housing such as cementing in the sides to make it all flush with a base coat of varnish to protect it initially. John from the start had strong communications skills getting back to me and arriving when she he said he would. He was tidy and respectful hoovering an clearing up each night. We are extremely pleased with the workmanship and price and would happily use John again.

   John did an exceptional job in building and installing a tv wall unit (see picture). Extremely professional and superb craftsmanship. Clean, tidy and excellent value for money. Would highly recommend.
