Highlights
"Working with Alex and James was a pleasure. They both understand the task and the needs of myself. I would highly recommend them and there team."
"We were looking for carpenters for a 110m2 extension we were having done on our house. My father had used Woodland Carpentry before and recommended them. Alex and James came to speak to me and my wife a few times before we started and we felt in safe hands. Throughout the project they have been on site when needed, on time and been prepared to go the extra mile where things had changed. I'd thoroughly recommend them to anyone that is looking for carpenters or general builders. They know what they're doing, very communicative, approachable about any issues and very easy to get on with."
"After buying a bungalow last year which needed a lot of work doing, some friends recommended Woodland Carpentry and Construction. The work included completely remodelling the rear of the house, new kitchen, adding 4m sliding doors to the garden etc.. James and Alex we’re amazing throughout the entire process, they made it as stress free as possibly could of been. They hit all the timelines we were originally told, and stuck to the budget we had. We recommend them to all our family and friends and will definitely use them again when it’s time to add a loft extension!"

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.
