Crown Joinery Highly Recommended

Recommended Posts

I would like to recommend Crown Joinery in East Dulwich as a first class joinery workshop.


They recently made and fitted a new bespoke front door and new frame for us, in the original style of the house (that is 1920s).


Alex was extremely professional from start to finish, and he obviously takes great pride in his work. Every single detail is considered, and the result is a really stunning front door that fits perfectly in its frame. The frame included a side window, and the door has a rectangular window in the top third, with lovely molding and a very nice arched top. The three vertical panels at the front were also made beautifully.


The finish is completely professional, with lovely door furniture and we paid extra to have Banham locks, although this is optional.


We had the lead-work for the windows done by another local artisan recommended by Alex called Vince at Art with Glass in Crystal Palace. They worked very well together and so the measuring and fitting of the glass into the door was hassle-free for me.


When Alex took out the old original door frame, there was some damage to the plaster work around the frame both inside and outside, which I believe is almost inevitable. Alex and his decorator made sure that the damage was made good and came back the following day to finish, even though that was unplanned and unexpected.


If you are looking to replace your front door, I highly recommend you contact Crown Joinery - you will delighted with the result!

    • That's a disgusting slur against an innocent driver who was probably just on their way to drop off freshly-baked muffins at an orphanage when they had to swerve out of the way of a so-called "cyclist", and anyway traffic lights are just a Marxist conspiracy by Southwark Council to slow traffic down and force people out of cars, so we're all better off without it.
    • Frothy coffee? Not really my bag. A double espresso and a Marlboro Red? It's the breakfast of champions. The only dark drink with a creamy head which should ever be drunk by a man of my age is Guinness. I've also become lactose intolerant recently, meaning I get very impatient around milk. You make a fair point, but those legal channels are available for them to recover their repair, and legal, costs and, as I said: "It's up to them if they [Southwark] want to do that, of course." There's three or four grands worth of Cat N write-off, wrapped round a post there (more, if it's broken down for parts) causing problems. If they can't be arsed sorting that, I'm not holding my breath. Even Southwark couldn't screw their numbers up enough to make shifting the post back through circa 15 degrees more than a couple of grand, so there's a drink in it for everyone. It's a bit 'leany' just now, yeah, but I haven't noticed anyone having to limbo under it to get to Superdrugs. Or, they could make a feature of it. Pisa has made a fortune out of not sorting the underpinnings of their tower. Let's say it's an installation by someone called, I don't know, Bangsy, and it's a physical reminder that SE22 cannot deny its proximity to Peckham, Camberwell & Brixton. It's about the only thing that would get me back into The Bishop since the many dark afternoons of the soul I spent with Clarence*, the world's most depressed Weimaraner. *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.   Come on Spartacus, don't be shy. You know exactly where the Green Cross Code Man was in 1973: less than a hundred yards away, on North Cross Road. https://youtu.be/C-XwVVMiCO4?si=rt8kQllev0t1Lgdi For some years, I found it quite difficult to go into The Forrester's after many long afternoons of the soul with Dave Prowse* (The Green Cross Code Man). *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.  
    • Loving the arm chair speculation on here  Blimey how long before this gets spun out to be a drug dealer welding a sawn off whilst driving away from a smash and grab at the coop cash machine flipped his car and landed on a bollard type post  Where's the green cross code man when you need him ?
