    Replacing built in cupboards.

    Posted 17 June

    David did a fantastic job replacing our built in cupboards. He was helpful with advising on the design and great at communicating ahead of the job. He delivered the work in the time he said it would take to a very high standard. The cupboard look great and would happily recommend him/his work!

    Building bookshelves into 2 alcoves

    Posted 22 April

    Took time to talk through what I wanted (I had carefully measured my books to optimise the space!) and to offer suggestions. Really good communicator and excellent work.

    Kitchen refurbishment

    Posted 29 March

    We first used David 6 years ago and was very satisfied with his work. We recently had him fit a new kitchen for us and we are going to use him in the near future to do some outside work. We have always found him to be very contentious, friendly and good value for money.

    Constructing understairs pull out cabinets and new patio

    Posted 30 December 2024

    Initially asked David to build some sliding cabinets for understairs storage and did a great job removing existing side storage and put up with additional requests for maximising available space. Also asked to install some wood veneer sheets onto some mdf window sills. The first attempt didn't go so well, but David came back and rectified the issue. Later re-requested him to build a new patio to replace a broken and rotted wooden patio. Again he was able to answer all of my questions and build a patio for me and perform a few other extra side jobs as well. Would recommend again in future
