Amanda Nutt
Bespoke Furniture Design & Build
I could not have wished for a better person than Michael to work with on my project.
I needed a set designed and built for a podcast and as part of this we wanted some portable wooden walls built that could easily be put up and down depending on when we needed the set ready to record.
I'm so incredibly grateful for finding Michael as I was totally out of my depth and didn't really have a clue what I was doing in all honesty!
Luckily Michael is an ex-set builder for big Hollywood films and knew exactly what was needed. He helped me avoid a few potential disasters and went over and above to build the walls for me. They fit into the studio beautifully and look absolutely perfect - his craftmanship is incredibly high quality. He even came to help us put them up and made some finishing touches on site to make sure they were exactly right. He really cares about his work.
On top of this Michael is just the most wonderful person, he is kind and thoughtful and really listens to what's needed. Although it was quite a stressful project up against tight time timelines, we managed to have a laugh along the way. Cannot thank you enough Michael and look forward to hopefully working together again soon!

Michael came and redid the shed summerhouse flooring which was completely rotten in places and hadn’t been done to a good standard previously. He knew exactly what to do have me a good price and completed the work to such a high standard. Really went above and beyond. Appreciated his knowledge in what exactly needed to be done and exact materials needed. I will no doubt be using his services again. More...

Katie England
General Carpentry
We put out a request for our VW Transporter to be converted by a carpenter and Michael got in contact. From the moment he messaged until now; he has communicated with us well, whilst being professional yet friendly. Michael used his knowledge and expertise to offer ideas which exceeded our expectations. He showed great attention to detail and went above and beyond in every area. He really did bring our ideas to life and we couldn’t thank him enough. A lovely man who I will always go to for more work, and would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a carpenter. A huge thank you to Michael!! More...

Matthew
General Carpentry
We used Michael to repair and replace some floorboards and to create new bullnoses from reclaimed timber for the treads on a flight of stairs.
He got back to me very fast after we posted the job on Bark, came round the same day to quote and started working a couple of days later. Michael worked incredibly hard and went above and beyond as, inevitably, there were unforeseen problems that he had to deal with as the project progressed. We were very pleased with the result and would use Michael again.

Sarah
General Carpentry
Michael stood out because he replied to my Bark request straight away, came out to quote (without charging) same day and sent me a follow up quote with details by the following day.
Michael did two main jobs for me: installing a custom-built bike/tool shed between three existing walls; hanging an interior front door (this was an ad hoc job we requested after the first day given that we liked how he had fit the tool shed); and creating three shelves in the closet under the stairs. He priced everything more than reasonably, worked to a high standard and was very flexible, fitting in the ad-hoc work between his other jobs, and understood what I was after. We are really pleased with how much his craftsmanship has improved my flat and would absolutely recommend him to others.

Andrew
General Carpentry
Michael did 3 pieces of work at my home in February 2021 all to a high standard. These were custom sized bifolding hard wood and glass doors between the hall and lounge, shaker style cabinets and shelves in the lounge alcoves and understairs pull out storage cupboards. Michael is extremely polite and great with family pets and nothing is to much trouble for him. More...
Nadia
General Carpentry
Michael did a fantastic job. I wanted to create wood panelling as a feature on the walls in my study. I had very specific ideas with regards to design and Michael discussed my requirements and talked me through all the possibilities and what would work best.
Michael talked me through every step of the process of what he was going to do and guided me through the project step by step, he also discussed with me the best choice of materials.
He is very honest and upfront about all costs, but is also fair priced.
I am extremely happy with the finished design.

Cannot recommend highly enough!

Jo Smyth
General Carpentry
Michael was very helpful and informative when it came to discussing options for the shelves I wanted putting up and when I asked if it was possible to do a couple of extra bits at the last minute he was very reasonable and flexible so we managed to do more with another couple of things around the house too. He’s always eager to make it possible if he can and for a very reasonable rate too. Will be using Michaels services again for sure. More...
