Using colour to blend in

I was initially asked if I could replace this staircase with an Oak replacement . Apart from looking a bit tired there was nothing actually wrong with the staircase. The customer wanted to achieve a ‘more modern’ look as they felt the old one didn’t go with the decor in the room. I was initially asked if I could replace this staircase with an Oak replacement .

The result speaks for itself with a considerable saving on costs. win win.

Traditional standards. Traditional tradesman. Traditional service. I have been a carpenter for over 45years, 5 year apprenticeship as a boat builder, 2 years as a wood machinist, then a spell repairing furniture and manufacturing reproduction antique clocks. I spent a further 15 years working in a therapeutic environment passing on my skills, before setting myself up as a self-employed carpenter/joiner. As you will appreciate, I undertake a wide range of projects, so scrolling through the site map may well direct you to past work that may be similar to your requirements. The preferred way to contact me is by using the contact page on this site. However you can always ring me during normal working hours. Lead times vary depending on the time of year; small jobs I can often do promptly. I cover Southampton and I am also happy to visit Winchester and Salisbury areas, but a small fee will be charged
