“Luke was involved in our house renovation from day one with all the carpentry work (& other aspects), I can honestly say his work is absolutely meticulous. My dad is actually a carpenter (a very critical one at that) he couldn’t find a single fault with Luke’s work and was incredibly impressed. Luke built us a huge media wall, replaced all skirting and architrave, hung new doors, built an under-stairs cupboard, built a feature internal window area & supported with many other areas during the project. He was always on time & a genuine really lovely guy. I can’t recommend his services enough.”

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Highlights
“Luke from SFA has just completed a media wall in our living room. From the loads of ideas and pictures I sent Luke he has nailed it, I’m super happy with the finished result. He’s professional, punctual, tidy, and communicates well to let me know each step. Thanks again Luke”
“I wanted a rustic reception desk, coffee table, shelving and cupboards for my hair and beauty salon. Luke made exactly what I wanted from scratch, I couldn’t be happier. He then fitted my kitchen, doors, skirting boards, bannisters and lots more carpentry work in my house. I can’t recommend Luke enough, his work is first class, he is friendly, polite and totally trustworthy and I am so happy with all the work he has done for me both in my business and my home.”
