About Chapelwood Carpentry & Joinery

This is my first job with Wayne at Chapelwood Carpentry but it certainly won't be my last one. Wayne was able to suggest some excellent design features which I went along with and took the time to understand how I wanted to use the space. Wayne was 100% accurate with the install time frame and has made me a cupboard which has exceeded my expectations. I was very impressed with how Wayne managed to build the cupboard perfectly along a very difficult bowing ceiling. I was kept informed of a slight change of plan which incurred extra charges and was happy with how well Wayne communicated throughout the job.
I have work with many different companies over the years but Wayne is in a league of his own with customer care, fine craftsmanship and being solution focused. I can't thank Wayne enough for his work and would encourage anyone considering work to choose Chapelwood Carpentry.

The quality of Wayne’s work is excellent. Wayne has transformed two awkward spaces into wonderful features, and we’re delighted with the results. But we were most impressed with the way Wayne found solutions to the myriad problems that our barn conversion threw at him.

Lots of people will do the job they’re contracted to do, but few would have found a way to finish the job that Wayne was ultimately presented with. All the while remaining excellent company.

We would highly recommend his services.

"Wayne completed extensive carpentry work in the closing stages of our house renovation. This included building several window seats, built in wardrobes, library bookcases, bespoke storage benches and shelving out a pantry and several other cupboards. We were incredibly pleased with the work he completed for us. He was able to take our ideas and advise on the best way to turn them into reality, whilst balancing cost, material quality and aesthetics. He is very approachable and consultative and a pleasure to have on site. As well displaying attention to detail and great workmanship, Wayne is a very tidy worker and left the site spotless when he finished. I would highly recommend his work and will certainly use him again when we have further carpentry work."

Wayne Kent is an extremely gifted and conscientious craftsman whom I have known for over five years and continue to use on a regular basis for a variety of projects, ranging from one-off individual pieces to skilled restoration work in period properties.

In addition to his complete mastery of all carpentry skills, Wayne also has wide experience of related trades, enabling him to be an indispensable team player on any building project.

A key aspect of Wayne’s personality is his absolute professionalism and commitment to the highest possible quality of work. As a design consultant with a portfolio of international clients I would unhesitatingly put Wayne in the top league of the many craftsmen I have worked with.

Wayne has an excellent eye for detail that is 2nd to none, producing high quality top end finishes.

There is no doubt: Wayne will design, create and produce a product to the highest standard.

Wayne’s ability to project manage a job to the highest specification from start to finish will install complete confidence in his clients. You can rely on Wayne to complete the work to a finish that exceeds your expectations.

I have worked with Wayne Kent at Chapelwood Joinery for over three years. In that time we have used them to fully refurbish two flats including kitchen installation, general carpentry and decoration. They have also undertaken less glamorous work like replacing a kitchen floor which had dry rot and reinstating the tiling and kitchen units above. In my home they built a beautiful built in bank of 15 cupboards all in matching walnut veneer. I have no hesitation in recommending them for a first class professional and punctual service; and in view of the excellent quality of the workmanship very good value too.

We have used the services of Wayne Kent (now Chapelwood Carpentry & Joinery) since 2012. He undertook extensive refurbishment and modernisation of our house in 2012. This included fitting a new kitchen, installing a new kitchen and utility room floor, installing new windows, laying a walnut floor in the hall and redecoration. His workmanship, attention to detail and identifying options and solutions was outstanding.

Since then we have used his services for further refurbishment in our house and on-going maintenance work and these works have been done to the same high standards. Wayne sets a very high quality benchmark and never fails to deliver.

We have no hesitation in recommending his services.
