Solid oak kitchen, Cobham
We're a father-and-son joinery workshop on the edge of Guildford. Every kitchen, wardrobe, staircase and piece of furniture we make is drawn, cut, glued and finished by us — in our workshop, by hand, with timber we pick ourselves. No flat-pack. No subcontracted fitters. No surprises at invoice time.
When you call, you'll speak to Joe (the joiner). He'll come out, measure up, and give you a fixed quote in writing within 24 hours.
Call Joe on 01483 771 040Drawn, cut and finished on site. We don't farm work out to third parties.
Itemised by stage and timber. The number you sign is the number you pay.
Joints, hinges, frames, structural fixings — covered for a decade.

You see every cost — timber, hardware, fittings, days on site. No "extras" added after we start.
FSC-certified European oak, ash, walnut and tulipwood. Bought as boards, machined by us.
Cut, jointed and finished on our benches in Guildford. No flat-pack carcases bought in.
Mortice-and-tenon joints, solid carcases, hand-cut dovetails. Built like the joinery in your grandparents' house.
“We had three joiners quote our kitchen. Joe was the only one who actually drew it on paper while we stood there. The work is gorgeous, the finish is perfect, and the quote held to the pound.”
“Built us a walk-in wardrobe across an awkward chimney breast. It looks like it's been there for a century. Easy to deal with, on time, fixed price.”
“Three flights of stairs in a Grade II listed house. Beautiful workmanship, no fuss, and they spotted a structural problem two earlier builders missed. Recommended without hesitation.”
Workshop's in Guildford. Most jobs are within an hour's drive — anything further we'll quote case-by-case.

Mon – Sat, 7:30am – 6pm · After-hours messages returned by 8am.
Most of our kitchens land between £18k and £55k for the joinery, depending on size, timber, hardware and worktop. We'll give you a band on the first phone call and a fixed quote in writing after we've measured up.
From quote sign-off, expect 4–6 weeks in the workshop, then 1–2 weeks on site for kitchens and 3–5 days for fitted wardrobes. We'll send you a dated calendar with the quote.
We work with two electricians and two plumbers we've used for over a decade. They come in at the right stage, do their bit, and bill you direct — no agency mark-up from us.
Yes — about a third of our work is on listed or conservation-area homes. We've made sash windows, doors, staircases and panelling that's passed planning the first time. Bring the listing details to the first visit.
We can. Removal, disposal and making-good is itemised on the quote so you know what you're paying for. Old solid timber that's worth saving, we'll offer to restore instead.
Always. First visit and quote are free, with no obligation. If you're more than 90 minutes from Guildford we may ask for a small travel fee, refunded against the quote if you go ahead.
We answer the workshop line during opening hours. After hours, send the form and we'll come back to you before 8am.
