Mr. & Mrs. Bookham, Guildford
Clearing the Interior of a Static Caravan and Creating a New Sitting Room and Bathroom. The Installation of a New Gas Cooker Was Also Managed by Barnwood.
This was a slightly awkward project because of the restricted space. Richards bespoke work and input on sourcing the items needed was invaluable. What was also hugely appreciated was the work wasn’t delayed because of a brief hospital stay of my own. I had good updates at the end of each day and when I returned home the work was completed to their usual high standard and everything was clean and tidy. The overall improvement was actually beyond my expectations. A huge thank you to Richard and his team.
Mrs. Jayne Dillon, Guildford
Open-Fronted Log Storage
This is one of many bespoke jobs completed for us by Richard and his team over the years. The design advise and materials used were perfect for this project. I had roof tiles from previous demolition and they were readily used to complete the softened and not too new look of the building. As always the work went very smoothly and was finished slightly ahead of schedule.
Mrs. Jayne Dillon, Guildford
New Fencing, New Shed, New Glazed Patio Roof, New Patio Furniture and Storage
Everything was done to a very high standard, on time, within the quoted price and left clean and tidy. Very pleased with the work.
Mr. Kite, Guildford
Two Oak Porch Frames
Richard is a proper craftsman and built some lovely oak frames for 2 new porches in our renovated house. Sourced some nice green oak and worked on site to make the beams and support posts with proper joints and dowels etc. Worked well with myself and the builder to solve any problems. All good and I would recommend Richard and Barnwood
Mr. David Brown, Guildford
Constructed Built-In Shelving
Very fast, excellent quality work and attention to detail, and showed a very good understanding of our requirements, selected good materials, with a sensible and competitive price. Highly recommended.
Mr. Jeff Shaw, Guildford
One External Door Fitted, Including Door Frame. Second External Door Re-Hung and New Draft Excluder Fitted.
Richard saved us money on this job by pointing out that one of the doors was in good condition and new draft excluders and lock would resolve the problems we were having with it. The job involved a small amount of electrical work and Richard contacted our electrician beforehand to agree timings for the electrician and himself.
Clandon C Of E Primary School, Guildford
Floorboard Work Around House and Staircase.
