Excellent. Steve fitted an oak internal bi-fold door into my home that needed bespoke modification to fit a slightly mismatched opening plus additional oak architraves.  Steve is highly skilled and experienced, leaving a high quality finish with everything straight and running smoothly.  High attention to fine detail and quality workmanship throughout, thoroughly planning the build in advance and cleverly concealing the fixings.  Professional and courteous service.  Digital written quotes and invoicing.  Worked long hours and always cleaned up afterwards.  Highly recommended.

We are really pleased with our new front door that Steve made for us, which is exactly how we wanted it and in keeping with the age of our property. From the start of the project to the finish, Steve has been professional- giving us advice, making sure everything was exactly how we wanted it, and completing the job to a high standard.

Steve did an amazing job and made my house look stunning. We would highly recommend to friends and family. He was very considerate and patient towards our daughter with special needs. Steve cleared up as he worked whilst taking his time to give a good look. If we need any work done in the future, we know to contact him again.

Steve did an amazing job fitting a flat packed kitchen for me. His attention to detail is superb, he solved various issues (kitchen supplier’s fault), worked neatly and was polite and considerate. Highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use again.

Stephen was solid. Quick response, good communication, excellent work, and an actual invoice! Everything you expect of a professional business. I've asked him to come back to follow up on other bits. He also made no fuss about my cat going wild as he worked...bit plus!

Highly recommend. Our door and door frame looks like new again! Steve is very friendly and professional and the work started exactly on time and was completed to a very high standard. We’re delighted with the outcome.


Wooden door frame

Conducted a site visit to talk through options and then followed up with quote. Steve was happy to make adjustments prior and when carrying out work based on our requirement changes. Work carried out was a combination of carpentry and decorating. Very clean worker would recommend


Living room refurb

Steve did an excellent job. Great communication, reliable, clearly a neat and tidy worker and quality craftsmanship. What I really appreciated though is that he went above and beyond the job in hand and made efforts to repair the worn brick around the door being prepared and even helped prepare the door for paintwork I am going to do. Really appreciated these extra touches.

We’ve had the pleasure of engaging Steve’s services for a number of years now as we chip away at the renovation of our Victorian house. He’s been brilliant - he built some bookshelves for us which everyone compliments when they visit our house, he also built a pantry under our stairs, and most recently an airing cupboard in an odd space in our top landing. Steve listens to his client but also has lots of great suggestions. His style is sympathetic to the period of the house. He is courteous, shows up on time, gets the job done with minimal fuss or mess, responds to messages promptly. 10/10!

Carpentry for Tunbridge Wells Homes

Tunbridge Wells includes an unusually varied mix of period houses, converted properties, family homes and newer developments.

Homes around Mount Sion, St James’, Mount Ephraim and The Pantiles can include tall ceilings, chimney breasts, alcoves and walls that are not perfectly square. These features give a room character, but they can make standard furniture difficult to place.

In newer areas such as Hawkenbury and Knights Wood, the challenge is often different. Bedrooms may have less spare floor space, while open-plan living creates demand for discreet storage and fitted home-working areas.

We measure and build around the individual property rather than assuming that the same arrangement will work everywhere.

Common Local Storage Challenges

• Chimney breasts dividing bedroom walls
• Deep or uneven alcoves
• Loft rooms with sloping ceilings
• Limited storage in converted properties
• Smaller bedrooms in newer homes
• Underused space beneath staircases
• Period details that need to remain visible
• Narrow access in central Tunbridge Wells

Our understanding of these local property challenges helps us plan a solution that is practical to install and useful once completed.

Bespoke Joinery in Tunbridge Wells

We make fitted joinery for homes in Tunbridge Wells, including alcove cupboards, shelving, media units, home-office furniture and understairs storage.

Storage designed around your room
Tell us what you need to store and how you use the space. We can discuss hanging rails, adjustable shelves, drawers and open shelving, with measurements and access considered before the layout is agreed.

Examples of our work
Our Tunbridge Wells projects include a TV unit cabinet and a Wickes kitchen fit. You can see these in our joinery project gallery.

Carpentry for Period Properties and Conservation Areas

Tunbridge Wells has a strong architectural identity, with many listed buildings and homes within designated conservation areas.

Internal fitted furniture will not normally affect the outside appearance of your property, but extra care may be needed where work involves protected features, original joinery or the fabric of a listed building.

We can plan new carpentry to complement existing proportions, skirting, mouldings and other details without making the room feel overfilled.

You will need to check whether listed building consent, planning permission or another approval is required before any relevant work begins.

For official guidance, consult Tunbridge Wells Borough Council before authorising alterations that could affect a protected property.
