10 Stair renovation
Posted 02 February
We had an old 1970's style ranch stair bannister with plasterboard stair guards at the top which we wanted removing and a spindle bannister with wood handrail as a replacement. Fava was a very competitive quote and we didn't have to wait long before Richard came out to do the work. He worked very efficeintly and got the job done on time. We are very pleased with the renovated stairs and how the work was carried out. Would recommend to anyone.Verified reviewerJob location: DE13 10 He is top clas

I hired rich for some carpentry work to build a media wall in my lounge and his work was exemplary to detail and the finish was top notch and I have re hired him to fit my new kitchen if you need a first class carpenter I would highly recommend him 100%Verified reviewerJob location: WS1510 Impeccable work with our media wall
Posted 19 December 2025
From the first conversation with Rich, I knew I could trust him and I was absolutely right. His skills as a designer and joiner are exceptional - such a high attention to detail and finish. His advice was invaluable, I so appreciated his honesty with my partner and I when we shared our initial idea for our media wall and shelving placement - what Rich suggested was absolutely the right call for our space and it has massively improved our flat. Looking forward to working with Rich/Fava again on future projects in our flat.Verified reviewerJob location: WS13- MMatthew S

Posted 13 December 2025
Really impressed with the work carried out by Rich. He was punctual, well organised and very tidy. So pleased with Rich’s work that we have arranged for him to come back and fit some more doors upstairs in the New Year. I would definitely recommend Rich for any carpentry work required. Not only is he a true professional but also a really nice guy.Verified reviewerJob location: WS15
