A selection of comments from our customers

"Jamie and Tyrone did a very good job on my bookshelves, kitchen units and building an oriental style sofa. The shelves and the sofa had unusual design features and needed them to think imaginatively and solve some problems as they went along, and they did this really cleverly. Their work is steady and safe, and methodical; they turn up and finish on time, and stick to budget. Overall I am very satisfied and look forward to working with Jamie and team some more."

thanks again for all your work!

Mohammad, Regents park

This is just a short note to thank you for making my house so beautiful. When you started the work in late summer last year I never dreamt I would be so thrilled with the result.

The cupboards and shelves in the sitting room are so smart everyone comments on them; the radiator covers finish off the sitting room completely. You also did lots of extra bits of work on my kitchen door, hall door and attic door, not to mention making the frames for my fabric pictures, helping put up other pictures and fixing cupboard handles.

I think the two of you operate really well as a team – which is very important for the sort of work you do. It is because of this team spirit that people can depend on you to give them exactly what they want. I hope you will both go from strength to strength and I shall follow your progress with considerable interest.

It would be impossible for me to praise Jamie too highly for the work that he and his colleague, Tyrone Ellis, have carried out in my flat.

It started with what seemed like a boring kitchen refurbishment. But that was not straightforward and needed design input and amendment.

And then it developed into a full-blown project within my home. The creativity shown by Jamie was transformed into technical genius when he built an office that folds away into a cupboard under the stairs and a solid ash ladder, complete with wooden wheels, so that I can get to the top of my newly-built (by Jamie and Tyrone) walk-in wardrobe, without resorting to hunting down the stepladder.

Not only is there great creative and technical talent within the team, they are also a joy to have in the house.

Every appointment was kept and every job finished to a standard that exceeded my expectations. They are polite, conscientious, tidy and mindful of causing the least disruption to a working household and minimising costs without ever compromising quality.

David and Sue, Fulham

Thank you very much for building the vanity unit cupboards, bath surround and boxing in of the pipes in my new bathrooms.

Your workmanship is to a very high standard and the final appearance is just as I hoped.

Your cheerful nature made it a pleasure to have you in the house and I wish you every success in the future.

Mrs W, Pimlico

Jamie

Thanks so much for the wonderful work you did for us.

We're absolutely thrilled with the hall, skirting and bedroom window and could never have achieved a finish like this ourselves (plus it would have taken us months!)

We'll definitely be calling on you to complete the other work.

Best wishes

Christine and Mark, Crystal Palace

Hi Jamie

No need for you to reply to this - but just to quickly say thanks for doing a great job on the shelves. They look fantastic and I'm really, really pleased with them.

Kind regards,

Ms J, London SE21

Dear Jamie,

Thank you very much!

So much better and everyone is very happy.

I won't hesitate to contact you again should anything else need fixing.

C Harris, Japan local government centre Whitehall

Early last year, I decided that enough was enough. I was determined to replace the cupboard in my sitting room with something that had proper, not sliding, doors and a back panel. So I rang my roofer...

This is not as crazy as it sounds. Jamie Parr came to me highly recommended by my roofer, and I was soon to discover what a gem he was.

I contacted Jamie and we arranged that he would come and take some measurements one evening in the week. He arrived on the dot – not a minute earlier or later. He then proceeded to suggest what might be done with the space we had, took some measurements and promised to email me with drawings and an estimate. This itself was a departure from the norm – Jamie emailed me within the week and I was so impressed I immediately told him to go ahead.

In the few weeks it took to do the job, things went very smoothly. Jamie brought me a sample of the wood he was going to use, kept me up to date with progress and finally came and fitted two cupboards in the sitting room alcoves and 6 shelves. They were stained and varnished within a few days and brass handles put on.

I was overjoyed – the result was stunning and I couldn't wait to put my pictures, ornaments and books on the shelves and other things in the cupboards.

Jamie had proved himself to be a consummate craftsman – a master carpenter who is very skilled in his trade. He was professional throughout, a good time-keeper who came and went when he said he would and someone who did such a good job there was nothing to complain about. I have now used him more than once and told others about him.

Jamie Parr is a genius craftsman in wood trades; he delivers to a high standard, takes pride in his work, is courteous, reliable, hard-working and tidy. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wanting their property enhanced by the talents and artistry he brings to every job.

Miss R H L, Dulwich

Hi Jamie

Thanks for a marvellous piece of work again - its looks fab. Sorry to have missed you on the final day to have not been able to say thanks in person.

Thanks again and kind regards,

Emma, Norwood

Jamie

I am just writing to thank you for the work done at my house. It was great that you started on time, finished early (your original estimate I think was two days) and you and your colleague worked solidly to finish a good job.

Thanks very much.

Sue, London SE22

Dear Jamie,

I was very impressed by your prompt, competent and reasonably priced work. I'll certainly be in touch if we have any further carpentry jobs.

Kind regards,

Jeanette, Camden

Hi Jamie

Thanks again for your help, we are both now really happy with the cupboards.

Have a good Xmas and I will definitely contact you as and when we need more carpentry work done. If only we had found you initially!

Ben, Shad Thames SE1

Dear Mr Parr,

It is very nice to be able to give my son the climbing frame before Christmas, it will be a great present for him.

Thank you,

Ms Taylor, Surrey

Hi Jamie

We were really pleased with the quality of your work and service and will be sure to contact you in the future when we require further carpentry and joinery work (starting with the front door).

Thanks again

Michelle, Nunhead SE4

Dear Jamie,

Thank you for fitting up the new cupboard's. They have completely changed, for the better the look of my room. I also want to thank you for your professionalism,you wasted no time, gave attention all the little details and left the work well finished and the room clean. Over the years I have had a number of things done in my flat and a number have been rather careless and slapdash in there final outcome.

So with thanks again

R Conner, London SW6

Dear Jamie,

Our new kitchen is fantastic!

We continue to be impressed by your commitment, expertise and ability to do anything asked of you. Despite having to cut some of the world's worst tiles, you hung in there and persevered. A lesser man may have run from the building, never to be seen again!

Many, many thanks for all your hard work.

Yours sincerely,
