  Bespoke Furniture

  Posted 13 April

  Bespoke furniture perfection

  After Gav's bespoke carpentry skills were recommended, I asked him to make a hall stand following an image I provided. He did an excellent job, checking with me at every stage to achieve final perfection. I could not be happier. He is a lovely friendly person and I would recommend him to anyone wanting bespoke furniture.

  Bespoke media wall

  We had Gav design and build a 5m media wall for our home, and we couldn't be happier with the result. From start to finish he was patient, professional and a pleasure to work with. Gav took the time to understand what we wanted, communicated clearly throughout the project, and came up with some great ideas that improved the final design. The build quality is fantastic and the finished media wall looks brilliant. He showed great respect for our home, keeping everything tidy and working considerably. We wouldn't hesitate to reccomend Gav to anyone looking for high quality carpentry work.

  Media wall installation

  Excellent service from Gavin and superb quality. Gavin built and installed a media wall for us and we love it. You can expect reliability, friendliness and high standard work from Gavin. He will be soon installing some cove lighting for us. Can highly recommend his service.

  Door Fitting / Hanging

  Posted 17 March 2025

  Internal door fitting, and decoration to doors and hallway

  Gav fitted (and painted) 7 internal doors, with handles, hinges etc, and then redecorated our hallway (ceiling and walls) to a very high standard. Nothing was too much trouble, he was always prompt, did a full day, and we cant speak highly enough of him, as a tradesman, or as a person. After 7 days working in our house, we feel as if we've known him for years, and was more of a friend than a workman.There is a reason all of his reviews are 10/10, as he's very very good at what he does, and above all, he's just a brilliant bloke. Probably the best worker/tradesman, we've ever had in our house.

  Built In Furniture

  Posted 03 March 2025

  Built in desk and shelves

  We needed a desk built into an alcove, a window sill and three sets of shelves. Gav did a great job. He talked everything through, checking in along the way on details. There was one slight issue, entirely due to a miscommunication on our part, which required a large shelf being removed once fitted, sawn down, the brackets shortened and then it being refitted to the wall. Gav handled the issue swiftly and cheerfully, and it all looks perfect. He was friendly, polite, punctual and we are so happy with the work. Would absolutely recommend and will use again for future work.

  Bedroom decorating & bathroom door - amazing job!

  We recently bought a house and needed a bedroom decorating and a bathroom door fitting. To make things more complicated I was 38 weeks pregnant, and actually went into labour a day before Gav was due to start work. Gav was amazing - not only was the decorating and door fitting to the highest standard, but he was so understanding of our situation and got everything done very quickly. We wouldn't go to anyone else now, and can't recommend Gav highly enough. Thanks so much!
