01 — Work

What I make

Bespoke work, cut to the room. Every job is drawn up and priced before a saw comes out.

  1. 01

    Fitted wardrobes & alcove units

    Built to the wall you've actually got, not the wall you wish you had. Scribed to skirting, coving and out-of-square chimney breasts. Painted or oiled to your choice.

  2. 02

    Staircases & balustrade

    New flights, replacement treads, and re-spindling of tired stairs. Oak, ash or paint-grade softwood. Building Regs compliant on rise, going and gap.

  3. 03

    Doors, frames & hanging

    Internal and external doors hung true, with proper mortised hinges and ironmongery that isn't going to drop in a year. Fire doors certificated and fitted to spec.

  4. 04

    Kitchens & worktops

    Fitting of supplied kitchens, plus bespoke carcassing where a standard unit won't go. Solid timber worktops cut, jointed and oiled on site.

  5. 05

    Second-fix carpentry

    Skirting, architrave, window boards, loft hatches, stud partitions and boxing-in. The unglamorous work that decides whether a room looks finished.

  6. 06

    Repairs & period work

    Sash window overhauls, rotten cill splicing, and matching mouldings for older stone properties around the Vale of Clwyd.
