Highlights
"Really happy with the work carried out at our house, everything was finished with great attention to detail. Joe was great at communicating with us, which made our works smooth from start to finish."
"Having used Furey Carpentry before during the renovation of our house, we turned to them when we decided to replace a window with French Windows. A double glazing company provided and fitted the new windows but Furey Carpentry organised, prepped and made good, before and after installation. This involved removing part of the wall, making good by “toothing in” the exterior brickwork. Then after installation, the interior wall was plastered. The floor where the wall had been needed to have layers of latex put in to bring it up to existing. Then LVT was laid to match the existing floor."
"Finding a tradesman without a recommendation isn’t easy. We came across Joe whilst looking for a carpenter for various jobs in our new home, the main job was a large media wall. Joe was exceptional from start to finish. We talked through what we wanted, drew a design, showed us options on materials. We put our trust in Joe and his team and they absolutely delivered. Our media wall is exactly what we wanted. He also recommend a great company for painting the end design to finish it off. He also fit wooden flooring and adjusted our utility room, to an exceptional standard. Thanks Joe."

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
