Highlights
“Rikki Installed my wardrobes exactly how I wanted them. I highly recommend using Rikki to anyone and will be using him again myself very soon. Top quality workmanship and left the job spotless”
“Rikki at RD Carpentry done an amazing job for us on our garden refurb. We had a very blank and plane garden that was just old artificial grass. We wanted a nice seating area for the summer along with somewhere to put a shed and real grass. Between ourselves and Rikki's ideas we came up with this final design. We couldn't be any happier with the outcome. Top job and would definitely recommend and use Rikki again for future projects 👌💯”
Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for RD Carpentry, including the highlights above. The 31 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Rik fitted nine doors in less than a day and a half, all to an extremely professional standard. They look great. He was early to the job, got on with things immediately and left everything as he found it. No mess, no fuss. He was polite and courteous, sensitive to the fact that we had a post-surgery person in the house that needed a little privacy from time to time, and generally good craic. Tradesmen can be hit and miss but Rik was a pleasure to deal with all the way through. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
Ricky completed fencing works door replacements and other garden elements inclusive of but not limited to decking repairs. His work was immaculate and he ensured he did not disturb us in any way as we work from home. My partner was impressed that he left our property absolutely spotless.
We asked for a media wall with lots of storage cupboards, very happy with the advice given and job done.
Ricky is a very friendly and professional carpenter. He made a media wall and hung 5 internal doors, put new skirting in our living room and even put new coving up. His knowledge is brilliant and his attention to detail is superb. He will definitely be carrying out more work for me around the house in the future. He’s a Topman.
I have used him between 10 to 20 times, every piece of work was finished on time to a high quality. I have recommended him to friends. He does a really good job!

Rikki built us some fitted wardrobes in our spare room that we are extremely happy with. All the work was carried out and completed within the time frame that he originally gave us when he first provided us with our quote. I couldn’t recommend Rikki enough and will definitely be using him again for all our carpentry needs.
He's friendly, just a really nice guy. He fitted all the doors in my house for me and created a fireplace and cupboards/selves in my daughters living round. I can't speak highly enough of him, would recommend him to anyone!
I have used him several times over the last 5 years and will continue to use him. He is a very polite, professional individual. His work is exceptional he's a perfectionist.
We used RD Carpentry for several projects arond our home. The quality of work has always been excellent. They arrive on time as scheduled and leave everything tidy each day. Highly recommended.
Great service from Rikki. His work was done to a high standard and great to work with.
Work was finished to an excellent standard. Communication was great and was left tidy after.
