Rebuild of wall
Customer Service

I contacted SH carpentry and construction as they are local and our neighbours had used their services before so they were highly recommended. Shane attended our property and gave us his professional recommendations on how to do the rebuild work. He was very meticulous and answered all our questions. The booking process was very easy and Shane arranged for his team members to meet us before the work started . His team, whilst on site was very polite and professional, they provided us with regular updates. The work carried out was to the highest standard and they left our property very tidy. Can’t thank Shane, Olly and Chris for their efforts, I would highly recommend their services for building and construction.

We needed a new wardrobe, meter cupboard, 2 windows replaced and damp investigated. As it is a period property nothing was straight forward, however we found Shane, Olly, Charlotte and the team to be knowledgeable, professional and approachable, happy to talk things through and offer options. As work progressed it morphed into extra work on the roof and chimney, outside repair and decoration, replacement of some drains and a patio, and adding a new soakaway. All the work has been done to specification and to a high standard, the team were always positive, helpful, easy to talk to and trustworthy. Would definitely recommend and would use again.

Careful approach and great quality

We can unhesitatingly recommend SH Construction for the quality of both their work and their communication. Shane and Charlotte have coped with changes of specification and the need for us to liaise with our party wall owners and two sets of tenants. The work was to rebuild the party wall in the attic, improving support for our roof, and Shane’s careful approach gave us confidence that the job would be well done. Olly and his team coped with lack of access to the neighbouring house and left all clean and tidy. The Building Control inspector’s verdict was “they’ve made a lovely job of that”.

Double garage replacement roof and rebuild

Shane's team undertook work to replace our asbestos garage roof with a new flat roof, and garage rebuild to include raised height to accommodate a roller door, new windows and parapets. Shane was a great help throughout the process, including initially spending valuable time with us to discuss the proposals, and responding quickly to any queries and requests throughout the process. Together, we made sure that the design would help facilitate a possible conversion to living accommodation in future and dining room extension at the rear of our house, thereby providing future proofing . Olly and the team on site did a brilliant job with the build, taking great care and attention at every stage and were always keen to explain their approach and fully take on board our wishes. We were very pleased with the materials sourced and the finished result exceeded our expectations in terms of craftsmanship and being in keeping with the character of our 1950s detached house.

We had a side door put in our garage’ which was excellent. The workmen were very tidy while working and very polite. They wanted to please us and answered any questions we asked when the job was complete they left the area clean and took away all rubbish. You would not have known they had been there working. Excellent staff always helpful Would definitely recommend the company

General interior renovation work
Customer Service

Shane and his team worked on 2 structural openings, and installation of a new kitchen and utility room floor for us over a period of 5 weeks...this also included hanging of new doors, associated carpentry around thresholds, laying of engineered floor around one new opening, and removal of an aga and fake brick chimney hearth. We had met Shane earlier in the year after moving into the property due to initial larger requirements. We found Shane knowledgeable, approachable and honest in our discussions. As my work is in interior design and architecture, working with a team who can deliver, are trustworthy and have a good eye for detail is really important. Shane and team certainly managed this. There were numerous times when we were not present at the property due to our work commitments, and they were respectful and careful to lock up, even permitting our cats to wander in and out....therefore a high degree of trustworthiness is part of what you receive. With Olly local to us, this helped them crack on from 7:30am. They were able to take in additional work to our scope also. In terms of costs, SH Carpentry and Construction werent the cheapest supplier we had quotes from, but we're glad to have worked with the team, and feel they were very able to deliver on all aspects of the job.

New extension

Shane and his team constructed the framework of a new extension for us in 2020. The project was completed according to the agreed schedule and budget. The fact that I am writing this two years later is a testament to the high quality of their work. Shane maintained clear communication throughout the process, regularly consulting with me on crucial decisions, which I greatly appreciated. Moreover, Shane and his entire team were consistently polite and easy to communicate with. I would also like to acknowledge Charlotte for her valuable assistance.

Excellent service from start to finish. Shane and Charlotte always responded quickly to questions and were always positive, proactive and helpful. The work was undertaken through summer 2021 when covid and delivery issues made life unpredictable, but these obstacles were managed professionally and with great flexibility, working around other constraints. The work was completed to a high standard and on time. Highly professional and highly recommended.

Apartment Renovation

Charlotte, Shane and team completed a full renovation of our 1970’s style apartment, bringing it back to the 21st century! I am based in Sweden, the apartment is in Oxford/UK, and I chose to work with S&H because they offered a ‘full service’ including full project management, sourcing of all materials/goods and co-ordination of the various experts carrying out the work. In short - complete peace of mind which is exactly what they provided. Charlotte who was my main day to day contact was exceptional, extremely professional and provided great peace of mind. The work was carried out to an exceptional standard with no stone left unturned. Big thank you to all involved in transforming our apartment.
