What People Say

Chris & Sarah Phillips

Phil made some gorgeous oak bespoke shelves for our living room as well as a floating desk.

He gave us options in terms of what wood and stain we wanted and understood the style and width we wanted which was floating shelves. They look absolutely brilliant and are so solid we could put anything on them. We are currently selling the house and this is a feature that new buyers are commenting on. Would highly recommend.

Nick & Simone

Phil is an exceptional carpenter. We had a very specific idea about what we needed for our house and Phil brought it all to life. It was a complicated job with wardrobe, shelving and cupboards all in a small space but he made it look incredible and it changed the whole house. We appreciated the great communication, high quality work with interesting woods and very reasonable prices - couldn’t recommend Phil highly enough.

Pete & Catherine Gladwell

Phil made us an oak family dining table. We absolutely love it; it manages to be both beautiful and robust. We would recommend his workmanship to anyone.

Steve & Claire

We are extremely pleased with the bespoke occasional table Phil made for us. The quality is superb and the unique style enhances our living room.
