Carpenter/Joiner reviews (14)

A great highly competent chippie but an absolute nightmare as far as timings were concerned. he had some family issues and while we were very sympathetic and after we'd paid him £300 per day , he let us down time & time again with all sorts of excuses. so after 3 weeks of delays i finished off the job myself. i only wish i had not paid him in full BEFORE the job was done.

We had 2 ads, 1 to fit doors & 1 to fit a kitchen. Jamie quoted for both but started the kitchen installation first. We have a 8 month boy & to avoid a lengthy install we bought a kitchen which the cabinets fully built (handles,doors etc). He worked for us, for one and a half days, he rushed the job, damage many parts of the kitchen, misaligning and denting the worktop, scratching our newly laid oak wooden floor & numerous other issues. We had to reorder damaged panels at extra cost to us. On the 2nd day Jamie left in a rush at approx 2pm as he said that he had forgotten to bring tools he needed to install our appliance doors. As soon as he left he typed out an email with the bill stating that he wanted the full amount & costs for the materials used. We questioned the bill and offered 50% & costs as long as he returns to finish off the kitchen. We have tried to contact Jamie & he has stated that he broke his leg & needs time to recover, to which we replied that we can wait. Then in Feb we tried to contact him again to which he replied that he was in Sydney and will contact us when he returns. Now it’s been more than 3 months since he undertook the job. We have been left high & dry with an unfinished kitchen & with a washing machine that drops out of its enclosure when on spin. We have given Jamie enough time (by law) to finish off our kitchen before we take further action for costs of repairing & finishing off our kitchen. Avoid J Hanly Bespoke Carpentry & Joinery Ltd

Jamie hung 3 internal doors for us. Diligent, hardworking, honest and methodical. He has expert knowledge and all the tools. He also offered suggestions to mount the doors to open in the opposite direction as it made the rooms more accessible, which was a great suggestion we went with. Overall, brilliant tradesman and will definitely call him for a few more things we are planning.

Jay is very professional and did a very good job. He bought all the required material and installed it in under a day. I will recommend Jay to anyone who wants to get good work done.

Jamie, did a really great job, on time, within budget, and just as we had asked. It's a pleasure to recomend him, you'll not be disappointed. Emmet ( Bray )

Changed job to laminate flooring. Jamie was fairly priced,reliable,trustworthy, and clearly very skilled. Pleased to encourage others to hire him, he won't let you down.

Jay was fantastic - on time, very clean and tidy, very flexible when my requirements changed, stuck to his original price and was very thorough in his work - generally a very nice, professional chap. Will definitely use his services again.

From quote to finishing the job, Jamie executed the whole process very professionally. No hidden charges, delivered on date and time. I will surely contact Jamie again in the future.

Good communication, fitted both doors to a good standard, would use again.
