Tony created exactly what I wanted, to a high standard, on time and at a very good price. I can recommend him wholeheartedly.

Tony dismantled and then installed a new bedroom window for us. He came and quoted when promised and then completed the job efficiently. The window he supplied us with was excellent and exactly what we'd asked for and a competitive price. A lovely guy to deal with would definitely use again and recommend.

We had a wardrobe built sometime in July 2011- he arrived early, finished in half a day and tidied up after himself. Only fault is that he is very busy so it's difficult to get him back in. Would definitely recommend him.

We needed some large fitted wardrobes fitted and found Tony through this site. He arranged times to come round and give us a quote and was full of helpful advice as to the layout and function of the space we had in mind. He was happy to return for a second consultation and dicuss things futher. He always arrived ontime and was friendly and helpful. The quality of his work and materials was very good. He gave me tips as to how to paint it too. He also rehung our livingroom door after we mentioned it as he was building the wardrobes. We looked around for prices and Tony's bispoke wardrobes were far cheaper (and used the entire space) than homebase, B&Q and John Lewis. We are extreamly happy with the result and will be using Tony again for work in our house. Shame we can't post a picture on here to show how good it looks.

We asked Tony to come and quote for a large fence and gate across the back of our garden. He was good value, so we went with his quote. He turned up on time and was fast and courteous. The result was what we needed. We're going to ask him to come back and build us some shelves now. I'd definitely recommend him.

I contacted Tony to lay a laminate floor as well as cut a viewer into my bathroom door and prepare the bathroom floor for vinyl,having read his reviews on his work. I was not disapointed. He gave a competitive quote, was punctual, reliable, made good suggestions in terms of how the work could be carried out in order to give a good finish. I also felt he had a very honest and fair approach, which was confirmed when he passed on financial savings to me from laying the floor, due to it not being as fiddly as he thought it was going to be. Tony was also very helpful in making suggestions to find storage solutions in my flat when I sought his advice. He was able to show me pictures of his previous work, which made it easier to decide what to go for when it came to my flat. Again he was able to give me a quote with which I felt comfortable and equally a storage solutions that would work best for my flat. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Tony was quick, reliable and punctual in both giving an estimate and when carrying out the work I had asked for. He was polite and helpful. It was not an easy job to do because my house is old and crooked. He made and fitted shelves and five new kitchen cupboard doors in the same style as the original ones, I am very pleased with the work and with the reasonable price that he charged. I shall be happy to reccommend him.

The flat needed some heavy mirrors fixed to the walls and Tony was contacted to do the job. I was happy with the quote and furthermore, was impressed by the glowing recommendations on this site. I was not disappointed. The work demanded precision and skill to make sure the mirrors were level and securely attached to the walls. Tony and John's work was excellent. They were patient and friendly throughout, clearly taking pride in their work and wanting to do a first-class job (which they certainly did). They also problem solved regarding attaching a fiddly blind behind the door. They also repositioned some coat hooks and hung three paintings for me. Tony and John (who is a plumber by trade) were a pleasure to have around and I will definitely be contacting Tony (and John for plumbing work) in the future, when I need their expertise once again.

I found Tony using whichlocal during april 2010. He saved the day for me on short notice when I was let down by another carpenter. His work is brilliant, he has great ideas and attention to detail. I have used him regularly on a variety of different projects and I know I can always rely on him to do a fantastic job. Tony is a very highly skilled tradesman, and a nice bloke as well.

We had a number of tradesmen come in to do work and unfortunately all of them let us down. Dodgy plumbing, exploding electrics, kitchen cupboards falling apart, we felt we weren't sure if we could cope with anymore. I was getting ready to sign myself up for every maintenance course going for the next 10 years just to get our bathroom done! Then we found Which? Local and Tony Byrne. He came in on the Saturday gave a quote and got to work on the Monday. What a top class job he did! Polite, courteous, reliable, went out of his way to help, everything you'd want in a tradesman. He knocked down a wall and completed renevated our bathroom. With exquisite attention to detail and an boundless work ethic Tony helped to transform our flat, and, while he was at it, our opionion of tradesmen in London! Thanks Tony. Thanks Which? Local.

Tony built us some built in alcove cupboards and shelves for a very reasonable price as well as hanging some kitchen cupboards very securely. I would definitely recommend Tony as he was on time, tidy, made good suggestions and competitive on price. Thanks!

Tony did an excellent job refurbishing an airing cupboard that now looks better than we could have imagined. Everything from providing an estimate to finishing the job was done efficiently and to a high standard using good materials. He is also easy to talk to when discussing your requirements and makes useful and practical suggestions. Highly recommended

Tony Byrne built a set of fitted bedroom cupboards plus a combined shelf and cupboard alcove unit for our dining room to match similar units in the living room. Tony offers a friendly and highly efficient service, very helpful advice based on a wealth of experience, together with excellent quality and all at a highly competitive and reasonable price. He's considerate, clears up, does what he says at the time agreed, and produces a great job. I've worked with a number of carpenters and cabinet makers and Tony is a top man -- 5/5, 10/10, highly recommended. I'm pleased to pass his details on to fellow CA members as I found Tony through Which Local.

I recently had a new gas boiler fitted and wanted it incorporated into a cupboard. On seeing the good reviews above, I contacted Tony and asked him if he could come and give me an estimate. He came to my house, measured up, gave me a quote on the Friday and actually fitted the cupboard the following Tuesday. He arrived early and completed the task in three hours. I am very pleased with the work he did and would certainly use him again. Tony is a real gem and I highly recommend him.

I decided to use Tony after reading all the great reviews about him on Which Localƒƒand he delivered! He came round to give me a quote and in a matter of days he was building me a landing cupboard. We are delighted with the cupboard, the time it took and the cost. He is very professional, tidy, considerate, helpful and very trustworthy and I look forward to using him again on the next few jobs. I would highly recommend him.

We would highly recommend Tony. He installed quite complex fitted wardrobes for us bought from Homebase. He was punctual, flexible with when he could carry out the work and did not go over the time he originally estimated nor his original quote. His charge is reasonable and his work to a very high standard. We intend using him again to build some wardrobes from scratch for another bedroom.

Secondary review from John Talbot - Tony made us a pair of built-in wardrobes, but they had to match our 'Arts and Crafts' Victorian house, with rebates and chamfers on every one of 16 doors. He made a perfect job of it, taking care in all the difficult areas, and leaving a splendid result. He came when he said he would (to the minute), and was very helpful in going through the alternatives for design and construction. Great job, highly recommended.

Tony came in and saved the day when another carpenter let us down. He came when he said he would, understood what we wanted, and discussed some options with us. Over the weekend, he built the architrave we needed, and fitted it and installed the door the next day. The finished result was even better than we expected. Super job - very professional.

Tony built and fitted new built-in wardrobes in our flat and did a fantastic job. He took the time to call round and discuss what we needed before giving us an estimate - he was really flexible when we changed our mind about how to configure it inside and didn't add any extra charge from the original estimate. He arrived really early and did the whole job in one day. I'd highly recommend him.

We would highly recommend Mr. Burns. He carried out a number of jobs in our house building a bookcase and shelves in one of the bedrooms, laying laminate flooring in several rooms, replacing skirting boards, building a large wooden storage shed in the garden and fitting a new front door frame. He was reliable always turning up on time and was friendly, polite and helpful explaining what he was going to do and providing useful suggestions when we were unsure quite what we wanted. He ensured that you were happy with the work on completion and was clear about the cost which was reasonable and the finished result was to a very high standard. We had no problem with leaving him to carry out the jobs whilst we were at work as he was trustworthy and diligent. We would definitely use him again.

Tony is a reliable worker - he got back to us with an estimate swiftly and turned up when he said he would. He made us a sturdy set of stairs from our kitchen down to our cellar, completing the work in less than a day, and we are pleased with the end result.

I used Tony to repair some old wardrobes. Not only did Tony repair them but built me a matching chest of draws. Tony's service was punctual, polite and very friendly. I will definitely use Tony again especially when I get my kitchen and bathroom upgraded.
