    Hanging two doors

    Great job hanging our doors. Arrived on time, communicated clearly throughout, and completed the work to a high standard. We’re really happy with the finished result and would definitely recommend.

    Built In Furniture

    Great experience -custom media unit

    I wanted a media unit in my alcove and wasn't able to get anything to fit. Thankfully First Choice Carpentry was able to help build something to fit the awkward space. They were great from suggesting layout to choice of finish etc. I'm really happy with the finish and they were professional throughout, turned up when they said they would and cleaned up afterwards. Will definitely be calling them again for my next mad idea !

    Building bespoke shoe rack in my coat cupboard, put up pictures and built cartwheel

    Thanks Ian for another great job! You’ve been here on several occasions to do bits of work. I am in love with my coat cupboard shoe rack which is a great help. Thank you you for the bespoke design and build. Then you put up pictures in a blink of an eye using your laser to ensure all straight and in line. Now today you built my cat wheel done- a puzzle in pieces! Next time we will get the kitchen shelves up ( when I remember to buy the brackets!). Thank you for all your help. Quality and secure

    Floating shelves and curtain battens

    Ian and his son did an excellent job! They arrived nice and early, worked hard for hours, and left us with a beautifully finished project. Ian is very kind, and everything was cleaned up afterward. We couldn't be more pleased with their work and are already considering them for another job we need to get done. Thank you both!
