Highlights
"Mike designed and built a beautiful TV unit. We had a rough idea at the start of what we wanted and he helped us through the process from design options to build. Mike was so professional from the start and made the whole experience really easy. When it came to fitting the unit he did such a beautiful job and we couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend Mike."
"A very skilled and professional carpenter. He was attentive, flexible, and offered thoughtful suggestions that improved the final result. Great to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him."
"We’re absolutely delighted with the panelling work completed for us by Mike. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and clearly takes real pride in his craft. The quality of the workmanship is excellent — clean lines, great attention to detail, and a flawless finish that has completely elevated our hallway and stairs. On top of that, he was friendly, approachable, and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. Nothing felt rushed and everything was done to a very high standard. Five stars without hesitation. Highly recommended."

Smart checks
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.
