Company Profile

I have been trading as MKH Carpentry for 21 years, after completing an extensive 5 year apprenticeship during which I won the apprentice of the year 1988, also giving me the opportunity to be trained by many skilled craftsmen during my working experience.

As a result I am able to offer a wide range of carpentry,  joinery, and cabinetry services, to a high standard, specialising in Bespoke, or made to measure built in furniture, such as kitchens, bedroom wardrobes and also freestanding furniture in many types of timber, including MDF for painting.

I start by visiting you at your home, discussing what you require, you will then receive a computer designed scale drawing to base the quotation on, and on acceptance a date will be booked in my diary for the work to be undertaken.

I also undertake high spec 2nd fix, stair banister renovation, siding sash window construction, or renovation, decking, doors, infact if you have a picture of something in timber I can usually make it.

All bespoke work is carried out in my small workshop, then fitted onsite by myself.

My quotation will not allow for decoration, but I am able to recommend decorators if necessary.

For examples of my work check the example photo link above.

Fitted wardrobe

MKH did a superb job of making and fitting a double wardrobe. Mark understood what was required and produced a perfect design which was quickly fitted and finished to an excellent standard and no mess was left at the end of the job. I would thoroughly recommend this joiner/carpenter and have used him many times in the past. Friends have also employed him and been equally pleased with the high standard of workmanship.

Kitchen Island Unit

Yet again Mark has completed an excellent project for us. He has helped us to design an island unit which complements the contours of our new kitchen perfectly. The unit he has produced easily accommodates seating and storage while allowing free access around the kitchen and it looks good too! It can also be moved from its position across our oakfloor if necessary. All done on time and to budget with his usual courtesy and careful attention to detail. A great job!

Various bespoke cabinets as part of a house renovation

Mark's work is of the highest standard and reflects his impeccable craftsmanship and standard of service. Therefore we give him the highest recommendation. He has worked with us to interpret our designs for 14 individual cabinets including wardrobes, vanity units, airing cupboards, larder, housing for American fridge freezer and a 6 metre long shelving unit with mirrored back to opens out a narrow room. Mark has been able to give a great deal of technical and aesthetic input to produce cabinets that are both good to look at and fit for purpose. The project has been a long, complex renovation of a Victorian building and has required Mark to plan the work with precision in order to integrate with many other trades where timing is of the essence and reliability is essential. He has shown great teamwork and toleration and met all the deadlines with a smile, on time and to price. He is a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with him again in the future.

Construction of solid oak dresser, corner cupboard and serving table.

Mark did a great job with making the furniture and the final result was superb and much admired by all our friends. Mark was extremely conscientious and patient with us, particularly as we were indecisive at times as to what we actually wanted. Mark was a pleasure to deal with and most certainly have no hesitation in recommending him.
