One of our best ones to date, we were tasked with designing and building an oak pergola over an existing outdoor kitchen. We used green oak beams and used traditional mortise and tenon pegged joints. Using 200mm x 200mm beams and posts it certainly stands out. We also added an oak slatted wall which really sets the bbq area off.
The led strip lighting and overhead heaters mean it can be used all year round
Both us and the customer are extremely happy with the outcome. Please feel free to drop us a message if you have any garden/oak projects coming up.

Fancy giving your house a facelift and bit more kerb-appeal? We can help, we’ve used hardie-plank cladding to really upgrade this property. This one was in the cobblestone colour and the owners were really happy with the outcome. Please drop either me or JW Carpentry & Decorating a message and we can arrange to quote!

Sorry for the lack of activity on this account, but we’ve been extremely busy. We’ve added a few photos to show what we can do. We’ve completed a variety of different things across this last year from complete house remodels internally to Mdf panelling. We cover anything carpentry based and then also tiling and external decorating. Feel free to drop me or JW Carpentry & Decorating
I’ve attached a few pics for you to browse through and hopefully give us a shout!

Here’s a few kitchens we’ve completed recently. Us and our team of trades can take on your whole project and get the kitchen turn around completed quickly. From the complete rip out to fitting the new kitchen, we then laid new flooring in all of these and also tiled the splashback in one!

At the moment Howdens in Saffron Walden have a trade sale on meaning if you order between now and November you can make a massive saving! We have availability to get your kitchen fitted before Christmas so please give me or JW Carpentry & Decorating a message so we can get the ball rolling!

Finally got round to posting our house refurb from the start of the year that we finished a few months back!
The project consisted of gutting the house of everything, wall coming down to make an open plan kitchen and diner with an exposed steel beam, all new aluminium windows and doors, new flooring and skirting.
A Howdens kitchen was fitted complete with a walnut effect wooden worktop next to a quartz work surface.
The client also had a dream of a jungle themed bathroom, we completed the tiling to the design of the bathroom company.

A recent job we’ve just finished. A walk in wardrobe for a client in a challenging room of the house with vaulted ceilings. We’ve maximised space in the whole room, creating open wardrobes with double hanging space, a Vanity unit complete with drawer and then a cupboard cut into the ceiling so they store all the stuff you don’t want on show!
