Nigel Tomkins Carpentry & Joinery - Carpenters Hackney & Islington

"The is is our second time working with Nigel after he did our wardrobes and this time he made us the most perfect book nook! He is wonderful to work with, very talented and speedy!"

"Nigel built and painted two fantastic wardrobes in our wonky Victorian house. I wanted one of the wardrobes to closely match an existing one on the other side of the chimney breast, including a long curved corner piece. I had other quotes suggesting various compromised options but Nigel was 'quietly confident' and was extremely responsive to all my questions and requests. I am absolutely delighted with my new wardrobes. On top of the craftsmanship and attention to detail, Nigel was a pleasure to have round the house; polite, friendly and tidy. I even badgered him to do a couple of other small repairs between coats of paint and he very kindly obliged. Would recommend without hesitation."

"Nigel did our closets is our bedroom for us and they are incredible! Everything was finished to perfection and the space is used so nicely now. Also, everything happened very quickly which was great for us. Will definitely be going to Nigel again soon for our next built in project. Highly recommend!"

"Nigel built an integrated desk and two bookshelves, as well as adding mantles to our fireplace surrounds. He was extremely flexible with reusing existing framing and fireplace surrounds and helped to deliver some great units that bring back the Victorian charm of our house and did so very quickly. We will definitely be getting him back when we next need carpentry work done."
