Not something I do alot of, but something i really enjoy doing, and thats tiling. Had the pleasure of re tiling these bathroom walls for a lovely customer in hinckley. All the tiles were in Cronos Forest green, with brushed satin trims, and silver grey grout. Personally I think it looked amazing when finished and certainly a upgrade from the orginal light grey ones. 👍

One of my latest jobs has been this small gally kitchen from wren. A full rip out was done, all ready for new plastering. I've then fitted an engineered dark oak floor before the fitting of all the units, worktops, end panels, and cornices. Sink and extractor fitted all ready for connection. I've made a cover for the extractor ducting, and finished the walls with 3 rows of bevelled brick tiles, with brushed satin trims, and silver grey grout. Lovely little kitchen for a lovely young family. 👍

Saxon meadow in hinckley to do a major repair to this front porch canopy due to the rotten timbers on the main components of the canopy. Firstly I've proped the roof up and removed and replaced the 2 main 45° decorative braces, which i handmade from qaulity joinery material, and then fully removed and replaced the main 3 x 3 structural timber which ran ontop of the main gallows brackets the full lenght of the canopy. All replacement timbers were fully and securely glued and screwed, then a full sand down took place, with a coat of undercoat and gloss to finish. Very satisfying now completed and the knowing its not going to fall down or collapse is great peice of mind. 👍

Replaced this old knackered and rotten side gate with a brand new 2'9" framed, legded and braced gate. Brand new 80mm thick side posts and stop beads. Ironmongery was and satin external handle, with a matching 3" mortice sashlock, 3 heavy duty 4" satin hinges, and 2 6" heavy duty barrel bolts top and bottom. Proper secure, and peice of mind for the elderly couple for who I replaced it for 👍

A few jobs to catch up on, as well as lots of other things happening, first up was this loft hatch replacement, took the small old hatch out, re-trimmed the opening and fitted this full drop down system. All finished with the lovely Burford architrave detail around the opening, and decorators caulk all ready for painting 👍

One of my latest little projects, this bespoke extractor cover. I built a 2 x 2 framework, which was clad in 9mm MDF, top, sides and front. Another small framework was built around the chimney and clad again in MDF. Decorative lambs tonge architrave around the bottom, and skirting around the top, with another architrave ontop of that to give a double detail finish. Looked amazing when finished and will look even better when painted 👍

Just completed this decorative handmade panel job. Fitted a decorative dado rail around the whole of the room, finishing it into the windows, then handmade all the decorative panels from moulded timbers. All fitted and perfectly spaced out top, bottom, and in-between and all slightly different in sizes due to wall lenghts and floor levels being out. All fully caulked in ready for painting. Looks beautiful now finished and will look amazing when fully painted. 👍

Before and after pictures of a recent stair makeover I've completed. The main rake didn't have any handrails, and all the top spindles weren't to regulations regard spacings. So I've fitted a new bottom and top newels, handrails and baserails. I've removed all the spindles upon the landing area and fully replaced the matching half newel to the wall. Once again replaced all handrails and baserails and fitted all new spindles to regs, and the same to the stair rake. All handrails where pre primed breadloaf design, and all fully infilled with 40mm pre primed stop chamfered spindles. 👍

Final job of the yr all completed and it was this full kitchen replacement. When I say full it was everything. Removed the old Ikea kitchen to find a fully rotten floor. Removed everything back to sub floor, replaced all the joists, and fitted a new caberdek floor. Floor was then covered with vintage oak style vinyl quick click flooring.
A full new kitchen was then installed. The Kitchen were all grey cupboards with internal storage drawers, pull out kidney shelves, 2 small pullout units and special under sink drawers. All frontals where gloss grey J handles, cornices and plinths. Worktops were all compact laminate in a marble effect with decorative upstands, and a under mounted sink. And all the orginal appliances have been re-fitted. From where it was to where it finished i think its looks stunning and some very happy customers 👍
