Excellent work on soakaway and patio
Customer Service

S&H installed a soakaway in our back garden and covered it with a new circular patio, for which we sourced the slabs from Minster paving. We saw S&H working nearby and the work looked good and the working team was cheerful. They came round quickly to give a quote. It was a bit expensive compared to another, but we went with it as we thought they would be good. We were not disappointed, the two builders worked well and delivered a really good result. They had to lift part of an old patio and replace it, and also replace some old brickwork, which was all planned as part of the job. The team and their manager stayed in contact whenever needed, and the bill was exactly what we expected.

Charlotte and Shane and the team were able to do an amazing job renovating our home. They stripped back the walls and totally redecorated to a high standard and I would have no problems recommending them and using them in the future. Thank you so much for completing a great job.

SH have done some remedial repairs to my property following the insertion of a new chemical DPC. Although a small project, SH carried out the work diligently and professionally. The team were friendly and helpful and kept disruption to a minimum. The quality of the work is first class and left having carried out thorough clean.

Garage conversion to Utility Room

SR Construction worked on our property to convert half of our garage to the utility room. They have done a truly amazing job. Just from the first day, they were leaving the construction area tidy and nice and the final finish was exactly what we asked for. Thank you for your hard work! We will definitely get back to your services in the future again.

Extensive damp repairs
Customer Service
Quality
Value
While decorating my living room a damp problem was uncovered which had resulted in a large section of the timber floor rotting. Shane responded quickly, had a quote for repairs with me the very next morning, and work started soon after. Throughout the work Shane and all the team were fantastic to deal with. I was really impressed with their reliability, workmanship and willingness to go the extra mile. The entire floor was replaced, an old fireplace stripped out, new lintel fitted and walls re-rendered. As the work progressed it became apparent the damp was more extensive than initially thought and had spread to the adjacent room. Shane and Charlotte were excellent in communicating this information. They kept me updated by email and phone calls and discussed options and costs openly. At no point did I feel railroaded into making a decision. On top of the damp repairs Shane also organised an electrician to update the wiring, for repairs to the main roof/chimney, and took on converting a dilapidated flat bay window to a pitched slated roof which is now a smart feature of the house. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SH Carpentry & Construction!

Replacement of fascia on dormer window

Shane and his colleague Craig were both very polite, professional and friendly whilst also doing a great job. I felt very comfortable with them carrying out work on the front of our house as it was clear that they are both very competent and knowledgeable in carpentry. I would definitely use them again for any carpentry jobs. Possibly not the cheapest but price reflected the quality. If you want someone to do a professional carpentry job then this is a good company to use.

A credit to his trade

I found this company through Which? Trusted Traders and have had them replace a dormer window that had fallen out and also repair a leaky roof. Shane and his team have been brilliant and we are really pleased with the work. It’s very difficult to find a builder/carpenter who is reliable but Shane has been. Pleasant, helpful, courteous and the standard of work is exceptional. I would highly recommend them to people and I am asking them to quote for further work that we need doing.

Fantastic extension
Customer Service

Shane and his team were renovating a big back room and adding an extension. The back room had three slightly different floors, having initially been two rooms that had had an existing extension, so they had to dig up the whole thing and lay a concrete floor that would align with the hallway corridor. They had to do this while building a further extension in bad weather, during the lockdown, and under time pressure so that parquet floor could be laid by specialists. And it was done perfectly! The job had endless details - a new kitchen, painting, replumbing, rewiring, a new garden wall, a new patio, some change of design as we went along, and SH Carpentry & Construction were always patient, attentive and accommodating; when things went wrong or we changed our minds, they sorted it out straightaway. And the result is really lovely. We've got a big family room that looks fabulous and is much warmer than it used to be. We love being in it. Thanks Shane, Charlotte, Pete, and the gang!

Renovation of hallway and stairs in 300 year old farmhouse
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Shane was recommended to us for our hallway renovation by Daniel Rokins, who was building a bespoke walnut staircase to suit our 300-year-old farmhouse. We were absolutely delighted with Shane and his entire team. The project ended up expanding exponentially due to rotting floorboards, overlying rotting joists, due to lack of ventilation bricks, and requiring rerouting of plumbing and gas pipework, all of which were addressed calmly, competently, and with endless patience and good humour from Shane and his team. The new staircase required unique structural work, also designed and constructed by Daniel, Shane and team. The wooden flooring was laid beautifully with artisan finishes and details worthy of the true craftsmen they are. The carpentry by Craig, James, and Shane, has been absolutely top quality throughout the job, including sympathetic door renovations and cabinet-making. The plasterwork was outstanding, unlike anything we have ever seen, and the painting and decorating have also been unequalled in quality. We are extremely pleased with the outcome of the job, and can't recommend Shane, Charlotte and the entire SHC&C team highly enough!

Outstanding management service and works

We are a national charity based in London and have a number of bungalows on one site used by our beneficiaries in Oxfordshire. We have used Shane and Charlotte for a number of years to manage the site maintenance. Charlotte provides an outstanding management service and with the residents, is caring and understanding of their individual situations when considering the works required. She reacts appropriately in emergency situations and I have full trust in her. Shane and the team always carry out the works required to a very high standard and have never let me down. I highly recommend them to anyone requiring this type of service.
