A Byrne Carpentry & Joinery

Tony has transformed our lounge! After arriving promptly in the morning, Tony walked through options for alcove cabinets and shelves on either side of our chimney breast. Tony remained very responsive and also showed previous examples, including an extra level of detail (with beadings around panels). We reached out for a few quotes and Tony's was most competitive and very fair. Tony then delivered an excellent turnaround time once we sent the deposit, and again arrived early. The craftsmanship was excellent and we were extremely happy with the outcome. Tony provided detailed painting instructions, and we painted ourselves within a couple of weeks.

After getting some glowing recommendations from my neighbours, I asked Tony to build us some built-in wardrobes in our bedroom and a utility cupboard on the landing. I couldn't be happier with his work and service! Tony was really quick to respond to my enquiry and arrange a time to come and take measurements, kind, polite, and so helpful in talking through options and helping me work out exactly what we needed and would work in the space. The work was completed swiftly and to such a high standard–exactly what we wanted and really great value for money! We will absolutely be using Tony's services again and echoing the recommendations of my neighbours to others.

This is the first time Tony has done a job for us, and we are extremely happy with the result! Tony fitted a new door at the side entrance to our house, that leads through to the back garden. Due to the size not being standard, he made the door himself. It is very solid, very strong, and excellent quality. All the fittings, lock etc are very strong and the house feels a lot more secure. Initially, we thought the work would be done in early September, but Tony made a huge effort and did it much earlier because he could see how insecure a gate we had. We appreciated that very much. The job proved considerably more problematic (and more time-consuming) than expected, as the gate posts and lintel are joined with the equivalent next door, and he had to work on their side as well, correcting what had been done very badly by previous workers. Tony is very friendly and approachable, and explains everything. We are really pleased with the quality of the materials and the workmanship, and will certainly approach Tony if we need other carpentry work done. We thoroughly recommend him.

Having checked on Which? Trusted Traders website I came across this company which was local to me. Telephoned and it was answered by Tony and we agreed a time for him to visit and look at the scope of carpentry that was required. We needed a Non Standard Hardwood Front Door (the old one had been in situ since the house was built around 1910 and the draught proofing I did was beginning not to work). He checked, took his measurements then informed me he had to check with the woodyard for pricing and availability. He came back to me within 48 hours with a quote which I accepted. The finished Hardwood Door looked and felt superb and had been finished to a very high standard. There were problems with the fitting as the door surround had warped over the years and it was not a straight forward installation. Tony took his time overcoming these issues. This was on the 25th of June. We were so impressed, we asked him to do some more work, this time to the Rear Door of our house and an internal door which was not shutting properly. He sorted this out by installing new door stops for the Rear Door and a new internal lock plus door adjustments to the lounge door. This was completed today 2nd July.

Tony has done a few jobs for me over the years. This time, he made a custom bench in hardwood to go around a pear tree in my garden. As always he has provided a great item. Happy to recommend him once again.

We live in a flat and storage space is a premium for us. We needed to maximise space for large suitcase and other bulky items. There was some unused space next to our IKEA wardrobe (which is effectively built in) but it was a very awkward size. We made contact with Tony and he responded very quickly and offered an appointment to see the spec. It was very evident that he is very experienced and he talked through the options with me. He measured up and then sent through a quote and was able to do the work within a couple of weeks. He did all the wood cutting in his workshop and was able to fit it with minimal disruption. It looks great and matches the existing doors perfectly. He was polite and straightforward to deal with throughout and I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Tony built three sets of shelves for my extensive record collection. He understood what was needed and was clear in his communications, responsive to my suggestions and flexible to some late changes in the brief. He was great to deal with throughout. He prebuilt much of the structure in his workshop so the installation took only a few days, which minimised disruption. His work was of an extremely high standard of craftsmanship, the shelves look great and are extremely solid, strong and robust.

We found Tony through Trusted Traders and he quickly responded to my enquiry regarding bespoke cupboards and floating shelves to replace IKEA bookcases either side of a chimney breast. He sent photos of some previous, similar work he had done and visited to discuss the requirements in detail. He quickly followed up with a competitive quote for the work and also agreed to hang a new porch door for us. Tony did a lot of the cutting off-site in his workshop, which minimised noise and dust whilst he was with us. He consulted us on all the important decisions, such as height and spacing of the shelves, and made good suggestions. Tony was friendly, responsive and helpful throughout the work. We are really pleased with the results, the cupboards and shelves are well constructed, look great, and make the room look bigger! Our porch door looks great too. We would not hesitate to recommend him.

We cannot recommend Tony highly enough. Tony and Joe have now done numerous projects for us, including building a large set of bookshelves and alcove cabinets, building our utility room cabinets, and building our guest room wardrobes. He also managed to convert an old teak wardrobe into a sideboard for us, highlighting is creativity. He is now about to start work on a set of fitted wardrobes in our master bedroom. All of the work that Tony has done for us has been of an extremely high standard. He has great suggestions and is always very generous with his time during the planning stage of each project. He quotes clearly, always sticks to his quotes, and is very responsive. Just as importantly, he is a really decent guy and it is always a pleasure to deal with him. Highly recommended.

We got Tony to make a few different units for our sitting room, hallway and kitchen extension. His attention to detail on planning the layout of the cupboards, positioning of shelves and doors etc and what was possible in our space was really helpful. He showed us lots of pictures of prior work which meant we could visualise what ours would look like. He was bang on budget (even did a few extra woodwork bits for me for free) and fitted everything really quickly. Really friendly and responsive (even responded to my initial email while on holiday). Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tony.
