Bespoke fitted oak cabinet

We asked Maple Leaf Joinery to carry out restoration work to some beams and a wooden staircase and also to make some new bespoke fitted oak furniture for our Grade II listed 15th Century village farmhouse.
The whole process from first contact to after sales service was excellent. The level of care and workmanship was outstanding and every step along the way was carefully explained to us. We even visited Maple Leaf's workshop to see the work in progress and agree the finish of the new furniture.
Everyone who has seen the work carried out be Maple Leaf Joinery has been truly impressed. We will definitely be contacting them again when we embark on the next stage of restoration work and for more furniture.

French doors

'Maple Leaf Joinery made and installed a beautiful set of French doors for us. Charles and John were very helpful when discussing the design and were very thorough when planning in terms of recommending the type of wood, mouldings and finishes that would give the best effect. We were so pleased with the French doors that we have since commissioned Maple Leaf Joinery to build a sideboard for us to very specific specifications. Both projects were completed very quickly and to an extremely high standard. We have no hesitation in recommending Maple Leaf Joinery and will be using them again very soon.'

Piano restoration

Dear Charles – I just wanted to drop you a line to say how fantastic our piano looks –  it is quite amazing and I would be very, very happy to recommend you to both friends and family! Thanks so much and I have no doubt that we'll be in touch at some stage in the future about other furniture restoration! Thanks again for a great job.

Bespoke cabinets & shutters

A few words about the cabinet and shutters…What a fabulous addition to our refurbished living room! We were struggling for a way to hide the sockets and consoles (not in keeping with our period home and messy to look at) and you created the perfect solution. The cold draughts and noisy road are a distant memory now our shutters are fitted. Both shutters and TV cabinet were beautifully fitted... no mean feat in our odd house! They look stunning, and do exactly the job required of them. You fitted them quickly with minimum disruption for us... and meant there was no discussion needed to decide who we wanted to build our bedroom furniture. Brilliant!

Edwardian settee restoration

2/12/2012
Dear Charles,
We should like to thank you once again for the excellent work you did to restore our Edwardian settee to pristine condition, after the damage it sustained. We were delighted that you were able to complete the job so quickly and efficiently in order that we could have the piece back in our home for Christmas. The restoration has been so brilliantly executed to the extent that we cannot distinguish the new leg from the original!
We shall certainly be recommending you to our friends who might be in need of your services.

With our best wishes and many thanks,
Diana & John Smith, Saltford
