    Some other carpentry tasks would be:

    Doors - I can make these to your spec or fit them if you have purchased them from B&Q, Wickes etc. The types of door I work with are flush, panelled, glazed, internal and external in MDF, softwood and hardwood.

    Kitchens and Bedroom Cupboards - If you have purchased a kitchen or cupboards from one of the local suppliers such as B&Q, Wickes, MFI Magnet etc I can fit it for you, cut the work top joints, make sure its all level and give it that professional finishing touch.

    Stairs - I can build stairs to your specification and offer advice on the building regulations requirements, this also includes fitting, straight winders, open newell, dogleg, bullnose, handrails, balustrading, in softwood or hardwood.

    Over the years I have carried out all of the above tasks to a very high standard and am willing to give quotations and references as required
