Built in bookcases in living room 

We wanted fitted bookshelves in the living room but we had specific requirements (adjustable, narrow, etc.). Toby listened to our needs, offered some advice and suggestions and was lovely to work with from start to finish. The shelves are stunning and fit our living room so well. We have more work in the pipelines with Toby and I am already excited for those other shelves. I would 10/10 recommend!

Toby fitted my new kitchen units from Howden

Toby fitted my new kitchen units from Howdens. His work is amazing, everything fitted beautifully, it all functions well, including soft closing cupboards and drawers. He has cleaned up the units and the kitchen when he finished the job. He co-ordinated the his work with the electrician, plumber and stone masons, who fitted the quartz table tops. Toby kept to his original estimate for the work. I can’t praise him high enough. This was the second big job he did for me and I am equally delighted with both. I have no hesitation recommending him.

Great Professional Carpenter

Toby measured, designed and built bespoke cupboards for the alcoves in our living room as well as fitting coving for us. We are so pleased with the final results. Toby is personable and professional. Everything was completed to a high standard at a good price. Toby always leaves the house spotlessly clean and takes care to cover everything up. I couldn’t recommend Toby highly enough! It’s hard to find good, reliable and professional tradespeople you can trust so I will definitely be returning to Toby in the future for any other work we may need doing on the house. Thanks Toby ????

Toby is an excellent carpenter. He built the units exactly how I wanted it. His work is precise and looks beautiful.

He is a honest, really friendly and polite person. His price for the work is fair and good value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending him. I will definitely use him again.

Toby gave us an estimate of time to make the cupboards, and kept us informed of progress. The cupboards were fitted by the due date, and in 1 day. Toby is a fine craftsman as demonstrated by the quality of the workmanship. 2 wardrobe style cupboards with adjustable shelves, and 2 open adjustable shelved units for a craft room. Sapele throughout. Toby worked methodically throughout the day and ensured the room was immaculate before he left. It was a pleasure to do business with Toby and his company. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending his fine carpentry skills to anyone.

Bedroom Furniture & carpentry jobs

The bedroom wardrobes, drawers and cupboards look great. They are actually better than I expected. The oak beams over the fireplaces and oak top to the furniture in the bedroom are absolutely fabulous and actually made me say ‘WOW’ when I came home and saw them. Toby also built a new hardwood frame for an old stained glass door, repaired my landing floor and put an oak threshold in my office. He is obviously a highly skilled carpenter but also has a good eye for design and is one of the most pleasant professionals I have ever had working in my home/s. I highly recommend Toby.

Building works to prepare for new kitchen/enlarged room.

“As always, Toby completed all works to an excellent standard. We chose to be away whilst this work was done for the first 5 days, in order to avoid the dust and knew we could trust Toby with a key to our home since we have used him many times over the past 10 years and felt very safe to do this. Work undertaken included knocking down one wall, closing up another wall and door, replacing a window to a smaller size, including bricking up which was done perfectly to match in with the existing external work. Also ceiling holes made for lighting, plastered and walls plastered.”

New kitchen fitted

“I am so pleased with my wonderful new kitchen. Toby at Crumps Carpentry Plus helped me from the very outset with design ideas and suggestions, measuring up and pointing me towards companies he would recommend to buy my units from. They were all expertly fitted by Toby with perfection on every point. He expertly boxed in pipes so that you wouldn’t even know they were there. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He dealt with all other trade professionals and the kitchen supplier without any trouble to myself, so that the whole 5 week process of preparing and installation ran very smoothly.”

Great care was taken by Toby to ensure this was done to his usual perfection, taking time with each tile to ensure they were fitted seamlessly. I cannot recommend Toby highly enough – his attention to detail in all the jobs he has done for us is second to none. He is totally reliable, trustworthy and extremely pleasant to have around with a happy disposition and always checking that you are happy with his work.”

New bathroom sink, vanity unit and toilet fitted

“I love my new bathroom! I could not afford a whole new bathroom refit with tiles etc, but Crumps Carpentry fitted a new toilet, sink and vanity unit in my existing bathroom. They also prepared and fitted a new bath board to replace the old wooden one, and fitted beautiful trims, so that my bath looked as if it was new, even though it was the same one. They fitted blinds and advised on appropriate sanitary ware for my current pipework before fitting as well. As always, a pleasure to have Crumps Carpentry in my home, totally reliable, trustworthy and pleasant. Happy to give them a spare key.”

Retrofit underfloor heating installation

“This installation covered the whole of the ground floor and is a great improvement on the previous radiator based system.
