General carpentry and joinery
Doors, staircases and balustrades, skirting, stud walls and repairs.
Plenty of our work starts as one small job: hang three doors, replace a rotten sill, put up a stud wall. We take those on, and we do them with the same care as a fitted kitchen.
One review sums it up: "Got lucky with my first contact after moving here. He will be my first port of call for the rest of the work I need doing."
What we build
- Hanging internal doors
- Stair balustrades, spindles and handrails
- Oak fireplace surrounds and mantels
- Skirting, architrave and picture rail
- Stud walls and boxing in
- Window sill and timber repairs

“I found Lewis Reed to be a friendly and highly skilled carpenter and a pleasure to employ.”Rowan B. · Bark, October 2024
Excellent. Could not be better. I would use Lewis again.
Super professional and I would highly recommend Lewis and his team! We will certainly be using him again soon.
They were delightful, very friendly, excellent workmanship and they tidied up after finishing the two projects. I tried to click 5 stars but the system would not let me.
