Carpentry & Joinery.
First impressions of Mr T Streeter are of a very pleasant young man. He solved the problems of a leaky front door which others had failed to correct and charged very reasonable rates. I would be happy to recommend them.

Fitted wardrobes and shelves.
One double wardrobe in a loft room and two wardrobes in inset spaces in the master bedroom. Very professional advice from design to finished work. Thomas was very helpful about how to best use the space. It all has been finished with great attention to detail, it was a pleasure having Thomas and his team. I can now appreciate how much detail work and craftsmanship goes into building the wardrobes and we would definitely recommend the services.

Oak wardrobes to main bedroom to include new bed base and window boards.
Tom and his team have undertaken two other projects for me in recent months so I had no concerns over the quality of the work. However this was to be the biggest project so far and I was unsure if I could afford work of this quality. For this reason I got quotes from two high street names for the supply of wardrobes. Although these were to be adapted to fit the available space they would have been far from bespoke and of a lesser quality. The price difference was not as great as I would have expected and any savings made would have been far outweighed by the extras, the bespoke nature of the wardrobes and the materials used. Therefore I asked Tom to do the work for me. The result is outstanding and whilst I made sure that Tom was aware that we were pleased with the finished result I found I was having to hold back on my praise for fear of overdoing it. Well done Tom, a superb result and one you should be rightly proud off.

Fitted wardrobes and separate freestanding wardrobe.
Thomas and his team made floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes, with different internal rail heights and drawers, and a separate freestanding wardrobe. We sketched out the style of the wardrobes and Thomas was very helpful on design ideas and measurements. They worked late to get the job finished in time and they tided up after themselves. They were very polite, helpful and professional! The wardrobes look very smart and we are very happy with the high quality of their work.

New cupboard in kitchen, to match existing units, new cupboards and shelving by fireplace and built in computer workstation.
Thomas listened to what we wanted and designed everything to suit our needs, giving helpful advice along the way. The big cupboard fits in perfectly with our existing kitchen. Our lounge shelving, one side with a built in computer workstation and completely transforms our room. Great attention to detail and very tidy. So pleased! Would definitely recommend!

Built a workstation in existing bedroom.
Thomas took a 'dead' space in our second bedroom and designed and built a workstation. This comprised of thinking the design through based on my requirements. The final product was very well made and met all my requirements. The finished product is well blended into the existing 'fitted' furniture that was built a number of years ago.
