O.S Jones Building & Carpentry

01/04/2025

Heres a fun little job to welcome in the spring and outside projects again ☀️ . Built a half bin and half bike store to run down the edge of my drive way, recreating and incorporating the boundary fence. With a living roof or as much a raised flower bed. The bed tilts towards the front to look at but underneath it slopes back to run the excess water out and along a gutter on the inside of the store. So you have a 25mm bed at the front with an alpine mix soil for living roof plants and soil with compost at the back about 120mm deep for bigger plants. I especially liked working with the steel cable kit, looks great and looking forward to seeing it mature now and hopefully have some climbers over it eventually 🌱

Hi bees, been a while, been busy! Hope everyone is well ❤️ Not shared any of my own house renovation on here yet, i thought on day 1 i would document and share all as i go but how naive of me thinking id have the time! Its been about 18 months now and im just about able to put my feet up and not spend every day and night on it 😅 been fun though, will get it out there bit by bit, still a way to go really this house in short just needed everything doing to it, here are the stairs before and afters

Absolute pleasure to share this one! Car port/garage. Some projects we find and some find us, very happy that this one came our way. This was a special project in village not far from Cambridge, the client didn’t hold back on any detail and all the frame work was made out of solid oak. We work a lot with oak elements but to do this entirely is fairly unusual but the result was beautiful. From the foundations to the finishing details i’ll share this project stage by stage, a lot of work went into what you see and we gave it everything to do it justice, just as lucky with the clients they were a pleasure to work for 🙌🏼❤️

Hello hope everyone’s good! 🙏🏼 Heres my latest project, i thought i’d show the half way progress and within a couple of weeks it should be all decorated so should be fun to see how it all turns out.
This has been a great job, second fix carpentry; heavy fire rated doors as it will be a rented property, skirting, architrave, wall panelling, under stairs drawers and cupboard, still to come stair’s balustrade handrail and big cupboard around the boiler and cylinder.
Took a long break from sharing as ive solely been working on my own family renovation, i naively thought id be able to share my progress on that but i havent had a spare second but will do at some point!

Here’s Pt. 2 - 3/4 height shaker style wall panelling as a package with the shaker style wardrobes, great project for great clients. Transformed this room in to something special i think, bold and beautiful 🤩

This was my first big job of the year, in my happy place building wardrobes. I do enjoy that every time they’re a little bit different keeps it interesting!
I got some references to run with and really loved the design on these ones. All Carpentry and decorating completed, panelling in pt. 2

Hello Carpentry lovers! Managed to navigate around the rain to get this project done and ready in plenty of time for Spring ☀️ a smart way to give an unattractive wobbly retaining wall, a sharp modern look.
Great to get back to this client and keep pushing his home closer to the finish line!
