Carpentry Services in North London
Carpentry and smaller refurbishment work across North London, from fitted kitchens and bespoke wardrobes to flooring, decking and decorating.
Bespoke Carpentry in North London
Bespoke wardrobes, fitted storage, alcove units and doors, measured, built and fitted around your space.
What's included
- Bespoke wardrobes and fitted storage
- Doors hung and altered to fit
- Shelving and storage built in
- Made to measure for tricky spaces
- Solid timber and quality boards
Rafal builds bespoke wardrobes and storage solutions designed around your space and how you use it. He particularly enjoys projects that call for thoughtful design, accurate fitting and a high standard of finish.
Most jobs start with a space that doesn't fit anything off the shelf - a sloped ceiling, a chimney breast, a gap either side of a fireplace. Rafal measures it properly, then builds the wardrobe or unit to match, not the other way round.
Doors, shelving and fitted storage are worked in the same way - built on site or in sections and fitted so the finish sits flush with the walls and skirting. Materials are chosen for the room, and the finish is painted or left ready for your decorator.

Home & Flat Refurbishments in North London
Individual rooms and smaller renovation projects for homes and flats, done with care from start to finish.
What's included
- Planning and coordination for smaller projects
- Carpentry, tiling and decorating
- Other trades coordinated where required
- Flooring, walls and fixtures replaced
- Site kept tidy throughout
Refurbishment and improvement work for homes and flats, from individual rooms to smaller renovation projects. Rafal takes a practical, hands-on approach, with careful workmanship and attention to detail throughout.
Rafal can help plan and coordinate smaller home improvement and refurbishment projects, including organising different stages of work and coordinating other trades where required. Clients often hand over the keys and let the team get on with it, with regular updates so you know where things stand.

Kitchen Renovation & Installation in North London
Supplied kitchens fitted and custom kitchen cabinetry built, with careful measuring and precise fitting.
What's included
- Strip-out of the old kitchen
- Supplied kitchens fitted, including Howdens
- Custom kitchen cabinetry built to fit
- Worktops, panels and finishing details
- Coordination with a plumber or electrician where needed
From fitting supplied kitchens to creating custom kitchen cabinetry, Rafal takes pride in getting the details right. Careful measurements, precise fitting and a well-finished result are at the heart of his approach.
Whether it is a kitchen supplied by you, such as Howdens, or cabinetry built to suit an awkward space, the work starts with getting the layout right. The old kitchen comes out, walls and floors are prepared, and Rafal coordinates with a plumber or electrician where services need to move.
Units, worktops and panels are then fitted level and square, with consistent gaps and clean edges, so the kitchen is ready to use rather than needing snagging after.

Bathroom Renovations in North London
Bathroom and cloakroom renovations, finished properly with tidy details and fitted vanity units.
What's included
- Strip-out of the old bathroom
- Plumbing coordination for the new layout
- Boxing-in, stud work and fitted vanity units
- Tiling and flooring
- Finished ready for use
Bathroom renovations, from compact cloakrooms to full bathrooms, carried out with the same care and attention to detail Rafal brings to his carpentry.
The old suite comes out, the new layout is planned, and Rafal coordinates with a plumber where pipework needs to move. Boxing-in, stud work and fitted vanity units are built properly before tiling and finishing.
The aim is a bathroom that is finished properly and ready to use, with tidy edges and details that last.

Flooring & Decking in North London
Wooden floors laid indoors and decking built outside, both finished clean and built to last.
What's included
- Wooden floors supplied and laid
- Existing floors lifted and replaced
- Outdoor decking designed and built
- Sub-frames and joists as needed
- Finished and cleaned on completion
New wooden flooring is laid level and finished cleanly, whether that's replacing an existing floor as part of a wider refurb or fitting a new one on its own. Decking follows the same approach outside - a proper sub-frame built first, then decking boards laid and finished.
Both are built to be walked on for years, not just to look right on the day. Materials and finish are matched to how the space is used.

Timber Framing and Bespoke Structural Work in North London
Timber frames for garden rooms and summer houses, pergolas, fencing and stud partition walls, built square and finished properly.
What's included
- Timber frames for garden rooms and summer houses
- Bespoke pergolas and garden structures
- Fencing and timber screens
- Stud partition walls
- Cladding and finishing
Timber framing and bespoke structural carpentry, from garden rooms and summer houses to pergolas, fences and stud partition walls inside the home.
Every structure starts with a sound frame. Bases and floor joists are set out level, frames are built square and fixed properly, and openings are formed accurately for doors and glazing.
Once the frame is up, Rafal can clad, board and finish the work, so the structure looks as good as it is built.

Decorating & Finishing in North London
Painting and finishing carried through the whole project so one team handles the job start to finish.
What's included
- Painting throughout the project
- Finishing to match new carpentry
- Walls, ceilings and woodwork covered
- Coordinated with the rest of the build
- Ready to move back in on completion
Decorating is done as part of the same project rather than handed off separately - once carpentry, tiling or a refurb is finished, the same team paints and finishes the space so everything is covered under one job.
That means fewer handovers, less risk of new work getting marked or damaged by a separate trade coming in afterwards, and a single point of contact for the whole project.
