Recommendation wanted: Carpenter for stairway restoration / joinery

Hi


Can anyone recommend a good joiner for some restoration work on a Victorian stairway? We would like to remove the Newell post and re-instate a "volute" turn on the handrail and bullnose step at the bottom of our stairs (I think those are the technical terms!?). I think the previous owner removed both to widen the hallway for access reasons.


Many thanks!

Hi,


We did the exact same thing in our house; completely renovated the stair case back to its Victorian state (although without the turn/ spiral at the end as it was out of our budget) We contacted loads of joiners/ carpenters and found that lots of people just didn't want to do the job or have the expertise in the end, so we went with a company called K&D Joinery Ltd. They are based in East London but honestly did such a fantastic job- I've attached some before and after shots. Not the cheapest but knew exactly what they were doing and fitted everything in 2 days...super clean and quick. We'd definitely use them again.

    • Greens have some mad polices and I am still trying to work out if it is true that the leader of the party thought he could hypnotize women to have larger breasts 🤷‍♂️ country is in a real state at the min and all party’s have a part to play in that. what the future holds who knows but it is worrying.
    • A stellar win for the Greens in Gorton and Denton, no doubt. But by-elections are funny beasts. Labour's strength traditionally has been in its ground game. Legions of canvassers over many years in many seats usually means that they are best placed to 'get out the vote' on election day. I can't quite believe that the Greens have enough data, or people, to wrest control of the council from Labour. 
    • Was a regular haunt of mine for many years and had a lot of fun times in there and some marvellous food down the years. Though, admittedly I spent most of my time in there doing some serious boozing. In recent times I've been a less frequent visitor to this fine establishment. I seriously hope it doesn't change too much. It's always had a good vibe in there and that's down to Tim and Rod and all of the staff who have worked there over the past 26 years.
    • Tom came round today and did a very good job advising on picture and mirror placements, and hanging several pieces. Will definitely ask him back to do a few more once we have them framed.
