10 Ikea kitchen fitting
Posted 07 January
Gareth and Ricky did an exceptional job with our Ikea kitchen after our previous fitters let us down. We've worked with Mainly Carpentry before on another kitchen project so were very happy to have them back. As always there were some hiccups with the Ikea order in terms of missing parts, but Gareth and Ricky were great at working through any problems, even finding space in the build for an extra cabinet. I can be quite a picky client, but the guys were accommodating and flexible, as well as clean, prompt and cheerful. The quality of the build was excellent - can't recommend enough.Verified reviewerJob location: PO159.75 Kitchen fitting

Having explained what I wanted, Garith explained how best to do it and he liaised on decisions of size, hinge type, and final wood finish etc. Communicated well throughout the process, for a job he obviously loves. Very pleased with the delivered table, exactly what I wanted and would highly recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: SO53

I am a time served cabinet maker & joiner who can offer a high quality & friendly carpentry & building maintenance service. Being in the carpentry trade for over 40 years I have worked in various places from private dwellings to building sites and all the way to Antarctica, working for the British Antarctic Survey on the new Science Base Station at Halley & also at Rothera Station.
I have gained a wide array of skills aside from carpentry that I am hoping to make available to customers.I offer free no obligation quotations and a very competitive pricing structure. So from anything to repairing a broken gate to building you a Log Cabin I have the skills and craftsmanship to help.
Having recently opened up a carpentry works shop I'm also able to offer cutting/sizing service
At a half hourly rate along with Bespoke Furniture & Furniture restoration
