We asked Oliver to build some bespoke stair gates to baby-proof our home, as well as a custom bed frame. His communication was excellent from start to finish, everything ran smoothly, and the quality of his workmanship is fantastic. We’re genuinely delighted with the results, and our neighbours have already asked for his number after seeing the work. The only ones not happy with the results are the dogs, who can no longer raid our kitchen counters—what a nice side effect! Would highly recommend Oliver to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled carpenter who really cares about what he does.

Oliver was absolutely fantastic. We had a garden office part built (awful experience with Loosehanger Oak - would not recommend) and it was left in a mess needing a lot of finishing touches. Oliver came and looked at the project, gave a quote, then came and worked very long hours to get the work done as quickly as possible and to an incredibly high standard. We would highly recommend - Oliver is incredibly hard working, fantastic communication, incredibly skilled and very tidy!

I recently had an oak-framed pergola built by Oliver, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the result. From the very first consultation to the final finishing touches, the entire process was seamless. The pergola is a true standout feature in our garden — solid, beautifully designed, and finished to perfection. The use of traditional joinery gives it such character and strength — it really feels like a timeless structure that will last for decades. What impressed me just as much as the build quality was Oliver’s professionalism. He is tidy and easy to communicate with, and clearly passionate about what he does. I’ve already had several neighbours and friends ask who built it — it really has transformed the space and added so much charm and value to the garden - I have, and will continue to highly recommend him.
