9.67 Kitchen fitting
Posted 12 January
I’m really pleased with the work Fred and Jack at LA Carpentry did for me. They fitted my kitchen, organised the electrics, and installed a new fire door, all to a really high standard. They were professional, tidy, and reliable throughout, and the finish is excellent. Communication was clear and they took real care with the details. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and would definitely use them again.Verified reviewerJob location: N110 Excellent new kitchen

I’ve been wanting a new kitchen for such a long time now and am so delighted with both the quality of service and the skill from the team. The job was finished to an excellent standard, and no ask was too much. Family and friends have commented on how fantastic it looks and I can’t recommend La Carpentry enough!Verified reviewerJob location: GU15- SSusan B
0 4 warped hardwood doors don't fit
Posted 30 April 2025
I had 4 coal bunker hardwood doors made to measure requested from LA Carpentry and Refurbishment Ltd. The doors don’t fit and immediately warped, 1 doesn’t open and 3 don’t close. LAC told me I would have to pay extra for any fixes and that they would send the debt for the remaining bill to a debt collector/solicitor which they have done. I have a report from a carpentry expert witness who says the doors are not fit for purpose. ‘Images 001 in appendix 5 is the internal elevation photograph of one of the 4 doors showing how all four have been incorrectly constructed.'Verified reviewerJob location: N1 7.67 Assembling flat pack wardrobe.

Was pleased with overall work completed. when he left property it was noted he had not secured drawers to runners. Carpenter punctual, pleasant cleaned up after self.Main down side - job did not cost what I was originally quoted £160. Told on day if paying by card it would be with 20% VAT, Carpenter had option of using off street parking on drive or purchase parking permission ticket from machine at end of road. He chose neither option and allegedly reported receiving parking fine to which he charged me for. No proof received upon my request to carpenter or company.Verified reviewerJob location: N510 Replaced bed side panels
