    Outstanding Workmanship and Reliability

    We can't recommend Elijah highly enough. He built us a large fitted wardrobe, boarded our attic space, and installed a new loft hatch. The quality of his workmanship is excellent, with great attention to detail throughout. Elijah is always reliable, turning up when he says he will, and is friendly, positive, and polite. We are extremely happy with all the work he has done for us and would happily use him again. If you're looking for someone skilled, trustworthy, and professional, Elijah is a fantastic choice.

    Hallway Joinery – Cloakroom, Understairs Storage & Dado Rail

    Elijah completed a bespoke hallway wardrobe/cloakroom, understairs storage with a pull-out shoe rack, installed dado rail throughout the hallway and both upper floors, and matched a missing staircase piece perfectly. His attention to detail and craftsmanship are exceptional – everything is precise, seamless and built to a high standard. He was reliable, tidy and professional throughout. Highly recommend his work.

    Elijah was great communicating from the initial enquiry to completion of the job. He was prompt and efficient, worked hard and left the site tidy after the work was complete. Highly recommend! Thanks Elijah.

    Ask Studio was incredible professionally, the work carried out was done to a high standard. Fantastic job from start to finish. The integrated bookshelf has been beautifully made and fitted perfectly into the space. Great craftsmanship, excellent attention to detail, and a very professional service throughout. We’re so pleased with the result and would highly recommend.

Hello I am Elijah, owner of ES Finish Carpentry Ltd, changing then name to AKS STUDIO

A little about me

I specialise in bespoke furniture and fitted joinery, creating made-to-measure pieces that are designed specifically for your space and the way you live.

My work focuses on clean design, quality materials, and careful workmanship. I take a straightforward, professional approach — clear communication, realistic timescales, and a tidy, well-organised process from start to finish. All work is carried out by me personally, so you’ll deal with one person throughout your project.

Having completed part of my training in the United States, I bring a slightly different design influence and attention to detail to each piece. Every project is individually designed and built, rather than adapted from standard units, ensuring a result that feels considered and long-lasting.

Bespoke Joinery & Furniture

My core work includes:

  • Bespoke wardrobes
  • Built-in bookcases & shelving
  • Alcove units
  • TV & media units
  • Kitchens & fitted cabinetry
  • Under-stairs storage
  • Custom furniture pieces

I’m always happy to discuss ideas, layouts, or design options and offer honest advice where needed.

Availability & Contact

I’m available Monday to Friday during working hours.

Outside these hours, you’re welcome to email or request a call back.

If I’m unavailable, please leave a message with your contact details and I’ll return your call as soon as possible.

Thank you for taking the time to view my profile — I look forward to discussing your project and providing a free quote or guidance.
