Install window and French doors, install new kitchen in old dining room and knock through living and new dining room.

Overall the work was done to a good standard and I would recommend Coleman's carpentry, as the standard of work was good, and the price was about right for the work that was completed. However in our opinion Phil's communication skills and time keeping need to be improved - in our experience, Phil seems to work to his own schedule and does little to keep people informed of his schedule. The work took longer to complete than expected, and we didn't feel that Phil kept us informed sufficiently informed of when the work would be done. For example, we expected Phil to arrive on the Monday or Tuesday (9th / 10th) to finish the radiators and skirting, but it was only when I got in contact about some extra work that Phil informed us that he would hopefully be with us on the Thursday - and then he didn't turn up until the Friday. This poor time keeping on Phil's part often meant that he was working here on Saturday's and Sundays or often past 7pm during the week, which we did not appreciate. We requested some extra work on the job, and the cost of the extra work completed was more than we were expecting, and although we were happy to pay, we would have appreciated that Phil could have kept us informed during the project of how much the extra work would cost, so that the final bill did not come as much of a surprise as it did. In terms of tidiness, the original quote stated "All rubbish to be cleared via skip and the site left clean and tidy". However, Phil left various rubbish at our house, including plaster boards, old pipe works, a bag of cement and a bag of bonding agent, as well as the packaging for the radiators. On top of that, some rubbish (skirting off cuts) was put in our green bin, which is a recycling bin, and so we had to empty that out prior to putting any recycling in it. Overall though, the job was finished well so I would recommend Coleman's Carpentry.

New kitchen and bathroom roof, new kitchen floor, re tile bathroom and fit cupboard.

Phill has done a lot of work for us since replacing our kitchen and bathroom roof in September. We have always found his work exceptional, he takes time to ensure the job is done right and leaves everything clean and tidy. We would have no hesitation in recommending him.

Removal of 7 x thresholds (raised platforms in doorways), modification of doors.

A job well done: Removal of thresholds (raised wooden platforms separating rooms) and adding a wooden piece to bottom off doors to reach floor once thresholds removed. Having come out to quote us, the price charged was as expected. Phil turned up on time, worked through the day (and well into the evening to ensure the job was fully finished before leaving - which is refreshing) and did a very good job. He tidied all mess up once completed and overall was very competent and professional. A polite and friendly service from someone who clearly takes pride in his work. We would be happy to use his services again.

A complete new bathroom

Very pleasant and honest, also very helpful. I am a 81year old widow and Mr. Coleman treated me with respect and advised me on things I had not thought of. His work is excellent and exceptional tidy, cleaning not only the room when he had finished. He vacuumed the hall and stairs. I could go out shopping and leave him on his own in the house..  I highly recommend him
