Good With Wood (London) Ltd

Kevin supplied and fitted a bench top, base unit and pipe boxing into a small utility room. It was an awkward space to work in but he did a fantastic job, very professional and all finished to a very high standard. He was very friendly and helpful and everything was left clean and tidy. Would certainly recommend.

I needed a carpenter and joiner to install new skirting boards and architrave in my living room following replastering work. I also needed some kitchen pipework boxing in. Having received less than satisfactory work from a previous tradesman, I was a little wary about employing someone again. I needn't have worried: Kevin responded very promptly to my request for help and was good enough to make a site visit the same day. His obvious knowledge and experience combined with a friendly manner were very reassuring. Prior to commencement of the works, Kevin kept me updated regarding materials, etc. On the day, he arrived promptly and worked solidly and tidily, involving me whenever an important decision was required. My little Victorian cottage is rather quirky, but Kevin always found a solution to whatever problem was encountered, and with good humour. Once the works were completed, Kevin cleaned up thoroughly and gave me some very useful tips on how to decorate the new installations. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kevin Brosnan to my family and friends.

I have no hesitation in recommending Kevin and the quality of his work. He is efficient, clean, tidy, happy to explain exactly what the work involves and great at keeping in contact. I had a distressing situation, when a water pipe had to be laid under my sitting room floor. Kevin came the same day as my call for help, advised how access holes would need to be cut into the large tongue and groove floor panels. True to his word, when he replaced the panels, none were unstable, which had been my greatest concern. The floor is rock solid. He was happy to work around the pipe laying schedule and came out at short notice to cut an additional access hole, when a gas pipe needed repair during the job. I am most grateful for all his work and getting my home back to normal as fast as possible.

Soon after I contacted Kevin, he phoned and made an appointment to visit my home. When he visited, he took measurements for each job and discussed the options. During our conversation, I felt that he was skilled, knowledgeable, and honest. Once we both were clear about the work that was needed to be carried out, an e-mail was sent to me by Kevin quoting the cost of each job and a rough estimate of the time for completion. No request was made for a deposit prior to the commencement of the work. However, he was paid at the end of each stage of the project. Kevin is a pleasant man, punctual and reliable. He took great care to protect and cause little disruption as possible in the areas he worked. He worked diligently throughout the brief and left the property clean, with little mess as possible at the end of each day. After the work was completed, I found a few minor problems which he happily rectified. Kevin took great pride and care to complete the work to a high standard. I was very pleased with my doors and cupboard. I would recommend him highly.

We had a problem with a back door that wouldn't lock properly. Kevin came round the next day after the call, diagnosed the problem, gace us a reasonable price and came back the following day with all the relevant parts and did a quick and efficient job which solved the problem. He kept me in touch with progress, was very responsive to texts etc. Overall a very professional and friendly approach. Recommended

It has been a pleasure commissioning Kevin to build two wardrobes in my house. When I contacted Kevin, he was prompt in his reply and my first impression of him, when he came to my house to take measurements, was good. He was very earnest in making sure that he got all the measurements right and discussed all the different options available to me. On the first day of building the wardrobes, he made sure that my floor was covered properly and was very careful to not damage anything. I was impressed with how hard Kevin worked and how dedicated he was. The wardrobes were made on schedule, within budget and they are beautiful! Kevin’s attention to detail has met my obsessive attention to detail - I think I have met my match!

Good With Wood’s Kevin Brosnan replaced rotting spindles in a porch rail and boxed in pipes and gaps round a boiler in a very difficult- to-access space. I found Kevin a very knowledgeable, highly skilled, experienced and efficient craftsman and an excellent communicator. The spindles were the original Edwardian ones and, having discussed the options, Kevin took care to find replacements in a style complementary to the original when I decided to avoid the expense of bespoke ones. The work round the boiler was particularly challenging and Kevin went to great lengths to find and execute a solution, always consulting and keeping me involved. Once we agreed the date for carrying out the work, Kevin arrived on time and worked tirelessly without a break, cleaning up thoroughly after the jobs were done. A bonus was that the final cost came in below the agreed estimate. I have no hesitation in recommending Kevin as a consummate professional.

Kevin did a neat and professional job installing a new fitted kitchen worktop with sink for me. He made helpful suggestions to avoid the water damage I'd had with the previous layout, and kept me informed about what was needed to finish the work. I appreciated his willingness to work around some unexpected problems getting access to the kitchen.

This is the second job we asked Kevin to do for us and we are glad we secured him. As before, Kevin was helpful throughout the planning stage and he gave us good advice about how to create useful space. He turned the job around very quickly and completed the work to a high standard. We are extremely happy with the result. As usual, Kevin worked flexibly around our diaries, he was quick and left the site in a clean and tidy condition. We couldn't recommend him highly enough.

In the lead up and planning stage, Kevin was attentive, easy to get hold of, and happy to contribute his opinions to our ideas - very welcome as we had never 'designed' fitted wardrobes before. During the work, Kevin was great, and worked flexibly around times that suited us. We are extremely happy with the finished product. The wardrobes look great and feel solid as a rock. I would recommend him unreservedly to anyone in need of a carpenter. We envisage a couple more jobs in the future and Kevin will be the first person we call.
