Ashdown Carpentry & Building

We are currently seeking advice from trading standards about Allan Paggett’s workmanship. He fitted wardrobes in our bedroom, however, the doors would not close and open. Very shortly (days) after he then ‘finished’ the job, one of the doors fell on me when I was 9 months pregnant. The doors no longer work. Allan took the full cost of the work from us and has never returned our numerous attempts to contact him (since May 2023) via email, text, letter and call. Avoid.

Allan took down an old shed for us and in place built a soundproofed garden room. Allan and his other contractors were all a pleasure to have around and did a great job on the build. The work was carried out to a high standard and done within the timeframe he had said as well as exactly to the quote he gave us before starting the work. I would happily hire Allan for future work and would recommend him to anyone looking to have work done.

I can’t recommend Allan and his team highly enough. From start to finish, the quotation through to the completed job, everything was handled brilliantly. Allan is very friendly and approachable, kept us well informed at every stage of the job and completed the work amazingly quickly and to an exemplary standard. We’re so pleased with the work and will definitely be contacting Allan again for any future jobs.
