“Tom quoted and fitted 5 internal doors for us. He arrived when he said he would and stayed until the job was done and the floor was spotless. He has an amazing work ethic and an eye for detail. You can tell he takes pride in his work. I would recommend Tom to anyone who wants any doors hung.”

Highlights
“AT LAST! A local tradesman who turns up when he says he will, gives good advice, communicates effectively and then does the job professionally to a very high standard leaving no mess behind him. Fitting 13 doors properly in 2 1/2 days is no mean feat! Our experience is that Tom Royce is a professional and experienced carpenter and joiner with an easy manner that inspires confidence which is not misplaced. He is a man you can welcome into your home, leave him to get on with his work and be confident of a job well done.”
“Tom turned up to quote job, turned up when he said he would. ( good start). Took 2 days to install 6 holdenby doors. His work ethic is excellent, something not quite right he’ll put it right. Would definitely recommend Tom to anybody for anything wood. We’ll be having him back for more work. ( just pray he doesn’t sing while he’s in your home 🤣). Side note: holdenby doors from howdens are excellent, very heavy. Good price.”
