    Floor Installation and Downstairs Refurbishment

    Posted 11 May

    Had a really good experience with CL Carpentry. Chris did an assortment of carpentry jobs for us over the course of a week including installing a new laminate floor, changing skirting/architraves, and refurbishing our utility cupboard and downstairs bathroom (e.g., reconfiguring and repairing plasterboard walls and boxing in pipework). The quality of the work was excellent and communication was great throughout. Chris was amiable and helpful, offering solutions for tricky aspects and going out of his way to sort several finishing details.

    Bespoke living room units

    Posted 02 April

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Craftsmanship & Service! Chris did an absolutely amazing job building custom units in our living room. From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and incredibly skilled. The attention to detail in his work is second to none, and the final result has completely transformed our space. He listened to our ideas, offered great suggestions, and delivered beyond our expectations. If you’re looking for a top-notch carpenter, look no further.

    Replacement of internal doors

    Posted 17 March

    The work consisted of the supply and fit of all internal room and built in cupboard doors. Chris and Ann coordinated all stages of the work from purchasing the new doors and fittings, installation and skip disposal of waste. The standard of the work was excellent and was conducted with minimal disruption. The job did present some challenges as the house and original woodwork is about 70 years old. However these challenges were skilfully dealt with. Chris was a pleasure to work with and we are very impressed with the end result. We will not hesitate to use CL Carpentry for future work.

    Bespoke shelf unit in alcove

    Posted 11 February

    On first contact with Chris we found him to be friendly and professional. He made suggestions of what options we could have. Chris kept us very well updated with what materials could be used, what would work and what wouldn’t and when the job would happen. The finished product exceeded our expectations and is of a very high standard and quality.

    Alcove units and shelving in the living room

    Posted 29 November 2024

    Chris was an absolute delight to work with. Such a joyous person with excellent carpentry skills. The units and shelving are fantastic. He made suggestions when necessary and got the job done swiftly. His time keeping is great, our home was left tidy and he has good taste in radio stations. Can't recommend him enough.

Hello! My name is Chris Lyle and I have been a fully qualified carpenter for twelve years. At Chris Lyle Carpentry, we take immense pride in our professional, tailored approach to each and every job we undertake.

I began my career on a year’s foundation course at Oakland's Colleges, moving on to a two-year apprenticeship with a small local business. I committed to working for them for just over six years in total, maintaining a great working relationship with them still and even helping do the odd job now and again. It was here that I was given the time and encouragement to hone my craft and learn to become the adaptable tradesman that I am
