How To Choose An Amazing Carpenter!

Thank you for your questions about how we chose our excellent team who helped me turn my vision into a reality. This post is for you...and the rest of you quietly curious ones too!

Our double door panelling

For fitting our new high skirting boards, wide architraves and window and door panelling, we chose to work with Neil Bathgate Carpentry and Joinery, who are based in West Oxfordshire. These pictures are this company's own work. Aren't they gorgeous?

{Plus I'm sharing some more of the work we've had done by Neil and his team in our living room}

But I didn't want to make our choice based only on beautiful images.

Here are my thoughts on how to choose a great carpenter.

Good mix of styles

Look at the company's website and take a good look at their portfolio. It's easy to be seduced by one show-stopping piece of work but make sure that they are able to turn their design eye to a wide range of styles - not just one look that is churned out again and again. This demonstrates that the carpenter have really been listening to their clients.

Look at these two very different benches made by Neil Bathgate Carentry and Joinery, which help make my point:

Expertise In Both Building Work AND Carpentry

In any project designed from scratch, both these skills are needed, and if one element is lacking then the whole look can easily fall apart. You want your carpenter to understand what to do if and when challenges arise.

Project Photos

Make sure that when you look at any potential trades person's previous work, you're shown projects from lots of different angles. You don't just want to see the view from the best angles. You need to see a 'warts and all' range of shots!

Recommendation And Testimonials

This is the only way to really see past the glitz and the glamour of well-presented web-sites. How's this for an impressive list (click on the projects to see lots of testimonials from delighted clients)...

Window panelling

Window panelling

This was a big, expensive job and I wanted to get it just right. We looked round at lots of different companies and Neil Bathgate stood out a mile in the areas I've mentioned.

Wide architraves

And it's a decision that I never once regretted: Neil and his team were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Yes, he has an amazing portfolio but ALSO the credentials and fantastic customer service to back it up.

Sounding very good to me...
