JR Carpentry & Joinery

Over the years we have used JR Carpentry for various projects in two houses (4 sets of Alcove units and various floating shelves) . All the work has been top quality and built to our specifications. Jim works with you to get the exact details you want and asks questions about the fittings that you hadn't thought of or to add extra details, all to make sure the end product is right for you. Highly recommended.

The work Jim did for us was perfect in every sense. We have a 300 year-old property at which no wall, ceiling or floor is level. Jim fitted some alcove units for us which look fantastic and the skill & craftsmanship frankly beggars belief and surpassed even our greatest expectations. Jim arrived exactly at the specified times and dates, worked solidly each day with his own refreshments despite frequent invitations from us and finished on time. It is rare these days to feel even remotely satisfied with service levels. In this case it could not have been better and we now look at our lovely units complete with our books & ornaments with real pride. Well done & thanks Jim. Would be more than happy to recommend JR to anyone.

We approached JR to quote for a unique bespoke solution to our new working from home needs, namely a pair of wardrobes that cleverly fold out to double up as desk space given that our bedrooms are now large enough to house separate wardrobes/desks.

After discussing and fine tuning the project with Jim we are absolutely delighted with the end of result and the wardrobes have transformed both bedrooms as well as relieving our living room from being the ‘office’ it has been in the last 2 years.

The design and operation of the final pieces is exactly what we were looking for and when folded away the wardrobes give no clue they have the dual functionality. Furthermore all the usual fittings of the wardrobes (drawers/shelves/rails) are of an excellent quality while the finish is also as stylish as the website pictures resemble.

Overall we would highly recommend JR and will return to them for any future projects. Thanks Jim!

“I was very impressed with JR Bespoke Joinery. Jim took a lot of trouble and care to make sure every detail was right and in line with what I wanted. He fitted beautiful painted wall to ceiling bookshelves, across two complete walls, complete with ladder which he designed himself; and a lovely bedroom shelving unit which includes a cupboard and TV alcove. He was also very careful and tidy when in the house and pleasant to have around - no noise or mess. I would thoroughly recommend him and the company. “

Jim did an absolutely wonderful job installing alcove units (cabinets and shelving) in our front room. We live in a 300 year old house with very uneven walls and he was able to navigate around this brilliantly to ensure that the alcove units were symmetrical and harmonious looking. He was able to accommodate our request for draws behind the cabinets as well as access to the electrical sockets. We were very pleased with the outcome, much better than we could have ever imagined. The finish is flawless and in keeping with the other period features in the room.
Jim was a real pleasure to deal with. He was very accommodating to our requests and worked in a very professional and timely manner. I would definitely recommend him. Many thanks Jim!
