  Single store rear extension.

  Posted 01 February 2023

  What can I say, an amazing job carried out by Will and his team. We did make a few changes along the way and Will was happy to work around the changes. We are planning a new double garage later in the year and we will definitely be having Will back to quote.

  Bathroom refit

  Posted 07 May 2022

  Couldn't have asked for more. Not only removed old bathroom and refitted the complete new one, they even advised on some design choices.... Would definitely recommend and use them again.

  Complete kitchen refit

  Posted 07 May 2022

  Billy and his team provided a great service, professional and informed me of anything thet hadn't already been agreed beforehand before progressing. They did everything from the floor, units, appliances, electrics and even plugged in my fridge. There were some unexpected wiring issues but nothing was too much trouble for them to resolve. Very reliable and I would definitely recommend them for your kitchen. 100% satisfied.

  Dorma extension and new roof and bathrooms.

  Posted 19 January 2022

  Will and his team have done an incredible job for us over the winter to give us an amazing new space to our originally small first floor of our property. They have also fitted two new bathrooms for us and re roofed our entire property. Great job by their whole team and contractors, we are so pleased with the work and looking forward to working with them again soon on our rear extension.

  Change of use from Cowshed to Dog day care centre, with w/c, kitchen, wet room and office space.

  Posted 16 January 2022

  Supposed family firm, all work done by different contractors, no overall plan of work. Looked excellent on completion but within a few weeks, total electric failure. On Investigation:- 1) office wall screwed into electric wires. 2) paintwork on walls coming off on clothes when leant against. After a few months:- 3) wet-room could not be used, floor uneven. 4) kitchen floor lifting and main creche area. 5) internal and external doors jamming and latches failing. 6) door paintwork coming away. 7) eventually serious leak on mains water connection, result of overtightened nut on installation.

  Response from Absolute Carpentry & Kitchens

  Thank you for your review, I believe we need to put some context into this as it is now some 2 years after the work was completed and you were overjoyed when we completed the work initially. We did not just use contractors, we used specialist contractors to undertake specific trades to make sure the work was completed by qualified trades. The cow shed is a typical pre-war building with concrete walls, a concrete floor, and an asbestos roof. All the points indicated are down to the property being an agricultural building and trying to make it suit your needs as best as possible given the state of the building and your constant reminder to keep costs down! When we took on the job, we were given a list of work you wanted undertaken, and we completed all the items. You did not want any damp work undertaken or heating due to cost and this has resulted in all the problems indicated and we have communicated explaining this with yourselves. Except for the screw hitting a cable when plaster boarding which is a work accident and was rectified by us immediately 2 years ago when it was identified.
