Perfection!

We spent months looking for the perfect Bedroom furniture for our new home with no avail. We knew we wanted a shaker style chest or drawers and bedside tables with soft close drawers and the timeless cornice edges. Nothing we looked came close to our vision until we found Furnish & Co. Neal and his team are excellent, truly excellent. From our initial enquiry, to site survey, design and fitting - everything was seamless and to the highest of standards. We had a few iterations or design until we were both happy, and Neal was incredibly patient with our indecisiveness of colours! It took a few weeks (as expected) for our pieces to be built it was 100% worth the wait. The quality of the furniture is unmatched by anything else in our home. Neal and his team are the best in their game.

Alcove Cabinets with Shelves

Furnish & Co has been the best recommendation I have ever received. Neal far exceeded my expectations; I am still in awe of his craftsmanship. He understood exactly the style of alcove cabinets that I wanted and created the perfect design for the space. I now have the alcove cabinets of my dreams. The quality and perfection of the cabinets is breathtaking. If only everyone paid attention to detail the way Neal does. Neal and his team kept in regular touch as the project progressed. They responded to all my queries and requests quickly and efficiently. The designs, quotes and company literature were all very clear and professionally presented. When I asked where I could view a selection of door knobs for the cabinets, Neal ordered in the ones I was interested in and I was invited to his workshop to choose. Nothing was too much trouble. Neal was especially kind and thoughtful in ensuring I was happy with the end result. He personally returned to make sure I was 100% happy with the installation after the cabinets had been hand painted having ensured the whole process from beginning to end was as stress free as possible for me. Having been widowed 18 months previously, I very much appreciated his positive and cheerful interactions with me. Like all the other reviewers, I cannot recommend Neal and his team highly enough. Neal is a true gentleman, a master craftsman who delivers on his promises and is a genuinely nice guy. What more could you ask for.

Very pleased with Neal and his team. The prep work leading up to installation was excellent. We were kept well informed throughout. Neal invited us to see his workshop which was interesting and appreciated by us. Neal and his team arrived on site on time. They were remarkably tidy and left the bedrooms tidier than they found them! The quality of their work was excellent. Neal and his team cleverly fitted our wardrobes snugly into oddly shaped alcoves and old, imperfect walls, which was a feat in itself. The wardrobes and drawers look great and are finished to exceptional quality. We couldn't have asked for anything more and would highly recommend their services. Well done to Neal and his team!

After being let down on numerous occasions for fitted wardrobes in our old style cottage, Neal was recommended to us by a good friend. When we met Neal, he informed us that he wanted to make the experience of having our new wardrobes designed and fitted as 'pleasurable as possible'. Neal has absolutely stood by his word. We have never enjoyed so much Neal (and his team) coming to work in our home. Neal made the whole process a wonderful experience. He never said 'no' he always came back with suggestions and guidance, which we followed and appreciated. It is clear Neal went above and beyond in the work he did for us, working long hours and always coming back to us with more designs. Time was never a problem, even though we knew how busy he was. He has a unique way of making you feel as if you are the most important client. We can honestly say we cannot recommend Neal and his team highly enough. His staff are polite, friendly and professional at all times. Neal turned up when he said he would and did more than he offered in our eyes. We cannot thank him enough.

We decided to contact Neal and Furnish and Co having read their excellent reviews. We can only endorse these reviews. We had downsized from 5 bedrooms to a new build with vaulted ceiling’s and no loft space. Neal spent a lot of time discussing and suggesting ideas, before we arrived at a decision for the bespoke fitted wardrobes for our two bedrooms. We are absolutely delighted with the finished furniture. Neal and his team have been a delight to work with. They are very professional but also efficient, clean and very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We have no hesitation in recommending their company. Thanks Neal and team for an excellent service.

Storage creation for attic room and cupboard

Having moved into a new build with no inbuilt storage and with two attic rooms, Neal measured up and provided plans for bespoke storage using a bifold door system to give easy access to those awkward to reach places. The plans were excellent with Neal taking account of all my requirements. I had the opportunity to change any of the design but this was not needed. I was given choices on the finished look and found Neal's suggestions invaluable. The aesthetics fitted perfectly with the new house and the quality of the materials and craftmanship was exceptional. I was absolutely delighted with the finished product. Neal completed the work to schedule and left the room ready for use.

Reinstating bi-fold doors
Customer Service
Quality
Value
I had long wanted to reinstate a pair of bi-fold doors that had been ripped out when the original reception room was sub-divided into two smaller rooms, so I was very pleased to have found Neal Lewer of Furnish & Co. The initial confidence that I felt when we first spoke about the project was not misplaced: Neal studied the brief closely and it was reassuring that he questioned aspects of it and the visual references supplied to ensure that there was no misunderstanding the intended design or execution. Not only did Neal show great attention to detail, he also took the time and trouble to explain why things were done in a certain way and made sure that I understood the process. The pride that he takes in his work is obvious, as is his perfectionism. One incident stands out: having spent the best part of a day installing the doors, we noticed that the beading did not quite match those on the adjacent, original doors in the room! The new doors were removed and returned to the workshop; new cutters made and the beading retooled. And all without drama. It has been a great pleasure working with Neal and his team, and I have no hesitation in commissioning future work from him.

Neil from Furnish & Co is a master-carpenter, a master-craftsman. He offered a trusted-trader masterclass in designing and delivering our fitted bedroom wardrobes. We had a concept idea of what we wanted. Neil was able, through his skill experience, to coach and coax preferred detailing from us. Neil offered a range of woods, veneers, paints and finishes. He worked with care and precision, ably supported by his protégé. We found the whole person-centred experience very satisfying. Oh, and we absolutely love the finished product! Trevor & Sue

Exceptionally high standard of workmanship
We called Neal Lewer of Furnish & Co, a recommendation when we were talking about renewing 2 sideboards. We started off getting to know Neal and how he works, we had no plan as to design or wood so after a few meetings we knew Neal was ready to start on our projects. Little did we know/envisage that when the 2 sideboards and a pod for between our chairs were delivered the satisfaction and appreciation we felt for all the hours of planning, craftsmanship & expertise that had been invested in the pieces. Each piece is very different and exquisite. Neal and Helen have been a pleasure to communicate with, friendly and professional, always being in touch with any queries. THANK YOU so much.

We are absolutely thrilled with the service provided by Furnish and co. A pleasure to deal with, and the end product even better than we’d envisaged.

Dealing with Neal and Helen at Furnish & Co has been a pleasure from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble and they actually called me to advise that they would be a day late in starting as they were waiting for some doors to arrive. We had contacted a rival whose estimate was a couple of hundred of pounds cheaper however we decided to go with Furnish & Co as we had little faith in the other company. We are so happy and impressed with our fitted bedroom that once again it's proven you get what you pay for. Furnish & Co are definitely the Ronseal of the fitted furniture world and deliver what they promise.

Amazing Workmanship

I commissioned Neal at Furnish & Co to make a large bespoke coffee table for my son, who had just moved into his first property. This table was based on a coffee table I owned. The end result was more than we could ever have hoped for... This table was truly a work of art, my son and I were 'blown away' by the attention to detail, which was wholly impressive and the dedication that was instilled in this table, one could tell,was made with love. I was so impressed by this table I asked Neal to make me three bookcases. Two for my living room and one for my bedroom, yet again, I was overwhelmed by the look of the bookcases, the work that has gone into making them and the beauty of the bookcases, they fitted into their respective places and looked incredible... The furniture that Neal and his team make could NEVER ever be bettered. That not withstanding, Neal and his team were patient when taking these commissions and made quite a few visits to make sure they were getting everything right. They are a cheerful, professional team and I cannot recommend them enough. I know these pieces of furniture will be around for future generations to come. Which is a testament in itself. Thank you, Neal and your team, next time I need a piece of furniture you and your team are the only people I shall contact...

This is the third project that Neal has undertaken for us. The other 2 projects were considerably larger and I wondered whether this smaller job would be something that Neal would be happy to undertake. The work this time involved fitting a small unit with shelves above supplying a bedside cabinet and replacing wardrobe doors in a small bedroom. Neal was as always very helpful suggesting suitable colours and materials. We decided to amend the original plan after Neal had spent some time working on it. He happily came for a second visit and amended the original plan as always full of innovative and helpful ideas resulting in exactly what I wanted. Despite being just before Christmas Neal as promised delivered the work on time and with the usual professional meticulous care. I was extremely pleased with the finished result exactly meeting my specifications From the initial very helpful response to my request on the telephone through several homes visits the planning and designing stage to the final completion on time I was delighted with the result The work was completed in a very professional way with no disruption and great care taken with protecting carpets and working in a tidy and clean way.

Replacement of hinges on fire doors

Furnish and Co replaced all the hinges on 24 fire doors (72 hinges) as the previous hinges were not up to standard and wearing badly. They kept to the agreed schedule and budget. They arrived on time and worked throughout each day. They were friendly, tidy and worked methodically throughout our house. We were hardly aware of their presence and what might have been an ordeal was almost a pleasure. The standard of workmanship was 1st class and we were glad again that we had chosen a company from trusted traders. We will definitely recommend Furnish & Co to others and use them again for similar work.

This is the second time that I have used Neal. On both occasions he has been patient in understanding our requirements and has offered helpful advice without trying to steal the show. I find him very easy to deal with and we were kept updated as to progress during the build phase. Delighted with the finished product (one new fitted wardrobe in attic and one conversion of office shelves into another wardrobe space). In addition, Neal and his team completed the work and tidied up after themselves. If you are looking for high quality craftsmanship and great customer service, I would highly recommend Neal and his team.

Furnish and Co built some bespoke fitted bookshelves and desks for us. It was to our design but Neal offered helpful tips and advice and spent time discussing the options. He is clearly keen to give satisfaction and make sure you get exactly what you want, and not just sell you more. The work was carried out to a very high level and meticulous attention to detail. They worked very hard to get it complete in one day but it was never rushed and they checked various details with us to make sure we were happy. They obviously take pride in their work and rightly so.

Neal has designed, made and fitted three sets of fitted wardrobes, a walk in wardrobe, a study and a headboard for us. The walk in wardrobe and one set of wardrobes were in the loft with tricky eaves to deal with including access into an under eaves storage area. The process from start to finish was excellent. Neal designed everything and made great suggestions to fit our budget and preferences. He didn’t push the most expensive option, unlike most others (quite the opposite) and made the very best use of space (especially in the loft). He was clear with the lead time (which was very reasonable) and stuck to it will the installations. The design drawings were very helpful and he made a number of small tweaks for us to get to our perfect design. They were so clean and careful whilst fitting, they were the only tradesmen we have allowed to work in our house without us being present. The quality of the wardrobes and fitting was brilliant and the price was very reasonable. We would highly recommend Neal and Furnish and Co, you will not be disappointed.

I have hated the staircase area in my house for years. It was dark and shabby and quite frankly was a bit depressing. Furnish and co have transformed this area into a thing of beauty that transforms the whole area. Neal helped us to design what we wanted and then delivered exactly what he said he would. He also fitted in the extra works we asked for. His team were very professional and the area was kept clean and tidy throughout the works . This is the second time I have used Furnish & co and to say I am delighted with the results is an understatement . We have asked them to quote for additional works and I have no hesitation in Highly recommending them.

Neil has now completed two projects for us, he has replaced our wooden front door and rear garage door with two composite doors.
