Quality workmanship
Carsten has recently completed a wardrobe renovation and extension in our property where space was restricted and options limited. He has created new storage and shelving in addition to uplifting the existing wardrobe space, the final effect being one continuous storage area. Carsten is incredibly professional and provided us with detailed drawings and examples of his work prior to arriving on site. The finished job is amazing and was achieved with minimum disruption and to a very high standard. We would highly recommend Carsten.Verified reviewerJob location: TN2210 Carpenter

Epic result, highly recommend!
I couldn’t recommend Carsten more highly. Great experience from end to end. From initial design stage, Carsten listened to all our ideas then came up with some excellent designs. He then worked like a Trojan to build us the most incredible treehouse and was flexible enough to adapt the build as we went along to ensure the best outcome. We honestly could not be happier! Great communication, excellent workmanship, stunning result. Highly recommend, if you get the chance to work with Carsten, don’t hesitate!Verified reviewerJob location: TN2210 Bespoke Furniture

Alcove units and shelving
Carsten built two beautiful bespoke alcove units for us, which have really enhanced our lounge. The finish was excellent with nice attention to detail like neat holes for wires and lovely trim. Carsten works very hard and quite long days to get the job done as quickly as possible. Can’t wait to paint them!Verified reviewerJob location: TN2210 Bespoke Furniture

I have been an established carpenter and cabinet maker since 2002 working in and around East Sussex. Most of my bespoke carpentry work involves solving storage problems. For example, creating shelves and cupboards in alcoves, work areas on landings and generally making the most of what you have got. Where possible I like to work with reclaimed materials, examples are making drawers and cupboards out of old floorboards, tables made out of reclaimed old pine doors and carved mahogany legs.
Large projects have included; designing and fitting benches, counters for shops, display units for shops and Cafes. The foyer at Knepp rewilding kitchen at Knepp Estate, walk-in wardrobe, full library rooms, boot rooms and bespoke country style kitchens. For the past 12 years I have also been making garden structures, shepherd huts and summer houses.
For all your carpentry needs, from original one-off free-standing pieces to space saving fitted furniture.
Clean, tidy workmanship and a friendly demeanour, I could be your perfect solution. Please visit my website for more information www.carstenthecarpenter.co.uk
