Reviews of Crescent Carpentry & Building Ltd

Very thorough, excellent standard of workmanship  - rare to find. Delighted with the outcome. 

Delighted with the finished result.  Exactly what I wanted.  Nigel and Conner were friendly and professional.

A HUGE thank you to all! I can't recommend Nigel, Ian, Connor and the team highly enough. They managed the project from start to finish taking into account everything I'd asked for (and more!). They were also extremely patient and understanding of any of my last minute changes. 

I was able to leave the house every morning for work knowing that I could completely trust you all. 

I was expecting to come home every day to complete chaos but the team worked so tidily, there wasn't anything for me to do and I was still able to use the main facilities in the kitchen. 

We're completely in love with our new kitchen! It was an absolute please having you here, there's no one else I will call on now I've found you!

Once again, a massive thank you to you all. 

Nigel's work, with his son, Conner, was outstanding. Nigel so obviously loved the materials he worked with, especially the wood. He built oak worksurfaces, oiled and sanded them many times until they were as smooth as silk and as shiny as our faces have been during this summer of 2018!  Nigel was creative and relished solving the problems that always occur in such a project. For example he adapted a cupboard ingeniously to fit around our boiler and he constructed a cross between a table and an island. All the work, without exception was excellent. Nigel and Conner are totally trustworthy and were always friendly, cheerful and a pleasure to have around even given we had no working kitchen for 2 weeks. Nigel inspired his fellow workmen to give of their best and all treated the work as a service to satisfy our needs, in improving our home. It was not just a job to Nigel and his team. We unreservedly recommend him and his team. Thank you.

Nigel and his team are the real deal and they are seriously good at what they do. Anyone can score maximum points for punctuality and tidiness, but it takes an experienced and professional craftsman to fit kitchen worktops with invisible joins. Furthermore, it takes expert carpentry skills to install wall to wall / ceiling to floor wardrobes and not make the finished article look like an add on to the original room.

Crescent Carpentry came to me as a recommendation and I am delighted to be able to endorse that recommendation. Their rates are extremely competitive and realistic. Nigel made it clear from the start that the quotation would not change and neither would he leave my home until I was satisfied and happy with the work done. That is exactly what happened. Without pressure, time constraints and fuss the guys delivered and always with politeness and good humour.

It has taken me years to find my "Dream Team"; thank you Nigel and the lads. I look forward to seeing you in the autumn when you return to fit my composite front door and internal oak doors. 

Nigel provided a service of seeing the project from the beginning to completion, calling on his team of experts in their field. When the trades were required, Nigel was always on-site to oversee and ensure everything went to plan.

The standard of his working force was outstanding and very conscientious of mess and not on any occasion did I come home from work and see any tools or materials left out.

I was constantly updated on progress even when Nigel was not on site.

An extremely reliable and professional company and would recommend to anyone. I didn't have to worry about anything. This was the beauty of the whole project - handing him the plans and dealing with the requirements. 

From the start Nigel was creative in solutions when we came up with minor stumbling blocks.

I would highly recommend Nigel to anyone.

I met with Nigel a few times to discuss what I would like to see in my new kitchen. He gave me advice and guidance to help me choose the cupboards, sink and taps, appliances and worktops. He also supplied the lighting, flooring and wall tiles.

Once the plan was drawn and a date agreed, Nigel then arranged the programme of works and all the trades needed i.e., electrician, plumber, gas fitter, tiler etc. As Nigel was project managing my new kitchen I decided to go on holiday for two weeks and gave him the keys to the house. He kept in-touch while I was away and even sent photos showing the different stages of the works.

When I returned, Nigel suggested a supplier for a large coloured glass splashback and even helped me to order it on-line. We also decided there was a small space for a breakfast bar which Nigel made with the same material as the worktops.

I'm very happy with my new kitchen. Even though I have much more storage and surface space, the room seems bigger and brighter.

I would recommend Nigel, not only as a carpenter and builder but also a project manager. No hassle, just leave it all in his capable hands.

We had been looking to replace some old fitted wardrobe doors for sometime but were not really clear on what the best option would be. Nigel was able to advise on possible solutions and when we selected the sliding doors he recommended a supplier where we could view them before buying and then sourced them for us.

He and Connor arrived promptly and worked flat out all day. He built a a new frame for the doors over the existing front and installed the new doors and surrounding timber, He is also replaced the clothes rail with something far more robust and a lot nicer to look at. 

Some of the plaster within the wardrobe was a bit cracked and he repaired this for us over and above the quoted work for no additional charge. 

We are delighted with the new look wardrobe which has completely transformed the room. All work was undertaken to a very high standard and the room was left completely clean. We would absolutely recommend Nigel without hesitation - it is easy to see why he is kept busy!

Helped to source choice of doors, very professional quality service.

Very happy with end result. Would use again and recommend.

Nigel arranged and project managed all aspects of the build which came in on time, on budget and to a really high standard. He is not only a brilliant carpenter and builder but also a genuinely lovely guy to have around, taking the time to get to know us and making practical and useful suggestions along the way.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nigel and his team and hope to have them all back in the near future for another project.
