What a great experience we had with Oak Hill Joinery. The quality of workmanship of our new bifold doors is unrivalled, the doors are perfect and just what we asked for. They fit perfectly and a lot of care was taken with the finishing touches. We have had a bad time with previous joiners and nearly given up hope until we met Phil and Ryan. Highly professional, lovely guys and do a really great job. Would not hesitate to use them for any future projects, and will be recommending them to all our friends and family. Thank you.
Stunning bespoke understairs wine storage. Pure class master craftsmanship. Also had glass and oak stair bannisters made. Major features of my house renovation. Thank you so much Ryan and team.
Wow! We searched high and low for a company to realise our vision of these internal bifold doors. Ryan and the team at Oak Hill were so attentive and paid attention to every single detail. We were blown away by the finished product. Could not recommend this company enough. Thank you so much Oak Hill! ❤️
Trying to bring our home into the 21st century we started with the staircase. Oak Hill Joinery did a fantastic job from start to finish. They deliver quality workmanship. We can highly recommend Phil and Ryan; they are first class. We've had so many positive comments on our oak and glass staircase.
Ryan and the team at Oak Hill Joinery did a fantastic job on new front and back doors for us. Top class workmanship and design, couldn't be happier with the result or the experience.
Excellent job! I can't recommend Oak Hill highly enough. They were extremely professional and did a great job making and installing a large room divider consisting of six bifold doors and a set of glazed internal doors. From start to finish Ryan was a pleasure to deal with, and the quality of the work he and his team did for us will be enjoyed for many years to come.
I am amazed with Oak Hill Joinery and the project they have undertaken for our house! Ryan understood from day one exactly what we wanted, and the results are above and beyond our expectations! The Oak Hill Joinery team brought into vision everything we’ve asked for and every little detail! I am sure our family and friends will be calling upon your services again! Thank you guys! 5 stars are not enough for your quality and customer service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We wanted to replace our 70's staircase in our period cottage and were referred to Oak Hill by a friend. From first contact to delivery and fitting, we have experienced the most professional service with a personal touch. Ryan and his team have also given us so much advice, and as a result, we placed further work for door thresholds and wardrobe doors, all of which have been first class. Attention to detail has been outstanding, especially considering the challenges presented by our older property. We have no hesitation in providing this review and thoroughly recommend Oak Hill for your design and joinery needs. Thank you, Ryan, Phil, and the team for your great work.
Ryan and Phil have created and installed our bespoke staircase. We love it. Their knowledge, attention to detail, and willingness to create exactly what we imagined and more has put the finishing touch to our new home. They are respectful, prompt, and reliable. Thank you 😊
Ryan and the team designed and fitted a new oak and glass staircase for us. They were a pleasure to deal with throughout the whole process and the finished product looks amazing. I’d highly recommend Oak Hill for their quality and attention to detail!
Just had our amazing gates delivered and fitted today. Excellent quality, very, very sturdy gates expanding 16 feet. Not only are we so thrilled with our quality purchase, we were extremely pleased with the fitters today, who knew exactly what they were doing, leaving our driveway clean and tidy. We would highly recommend Oak Hill Joinery. Thank you.
I have used Oak Hill on a couple of occasions and I can only praise their worth ethic, craftsmanship, and customer focus. Both my lounge and sitting room look amazing. Ryan listens and understands customers and if there are any problems, he deals with them professionally. I would recommend Oak Hill to anyone wanting a bespoke piece that looks amazing.
Ryan and colleagues have done a fantastic job modernising our staircase. They took time to explain all the options, nothing was too much trouble. High quality. A pleasure to work with. Would definitely recommend Oak Hill Joinery!
Oak Hill Joinery manufactured a bespoke oak gallery/porch extension for our house which was designed for us and assembled by our builder. Phil and Ryan visited to discuss the project and to take measurements, and the joinery was delivered as planned and completed to a high standard. After initial delivery, we opted for additional internal joinery which was ordered, manufactured, and delivered within one week. This company takes pride in its work, and we found them to be both flexible and fair. We are very pleased with the results.
Thank you so much Oak Hill Joinery for our beautiful front door, which was fitted in May 22. The whole process was completely seamless, despite what we thought would be a tricky fit due to the 1930s arch we were having made! The finished result is just what we had hoped for and we know it will last for a long time to come. All communications with Ryan were very professional and friendly. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Oak Hill Joinery to anyone. Thank you again!
Ryan understood the brief for my new oak gates from the outset. I wanted quality, and he delivered a first-class job. There was a small issue with fitting which was sorted as soon as it became apparent. I would highly recommend Oak Hill Joinery to anyone.

FAQs
What is bespoke Joinery?
Bespoke joinery is a specialised woodworking craft that involves creating bespoke/custom made wooden elements precisely tailored to a specific space or client requirement. Unlike standard carpentry, bespoke joinery focuses on creating unique, made-to-measure wooden items that are designed to fit exactly within a particular environment. Joiners are skilled craftspeople who design and manufacture custom wooden elements including staircases, doors, windows, wardrobes, kitchen units and architectural features. Their work requires extensive technical knowledge and advanced woodworking skills that go far beyond standard construction techniques.
At Oakhill Joinery, we distinguish ourselves through our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and client-focused approach. With over 30 years of experience, our team combines traditional woodworking techniques with modern design technologies. We source sustainably harvested timber and provide comprehensive project management from initial consultation through to final installation.
Our unique selling points include precision engineering, bespoke design consultations and the ability to tackle complex architectural challenges. We specialise in transforming challenging spaces, whether it's creating a custom staircase for an unusually shaped hallway or designing a wardrobe that perfectly integrates with unique room configurations. Professional joiners like our team combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. We excel in detailed architectural integration, custom timber selection and complex jointing methods such as dovetail and mortise techniques. Each piece we create is a unique solution, designed to meet specific client requirements while showcasing the highest levels of technical skill.
What’s the difference between a joiner and carpenter?
Understanding the difference between a carpenter and a joiner is important when planning home improvements or bespoke woodwork projects. While both professions work with wood, their skills and focus vary significantly. Carpenters typically specialise in construction-related woodwork, focusing on structural elements like building frameworks, roof structures and installing doors and windows on-site. They often work directly at construction locations and use more generalised woodworking techniques.
Joiners, by contrast, are highly skilled craftspeople who create precise wooden components in workshop settings. They excel at creating intricate, custom-made pieces like fitted furniture, staircases, wardrobes and detailed cabinetry. Joiners use traditional and modern techniques to create connections between wood pieces without visible mechanical fixings, resulting in elegant and sophisticated finished products.
At Oak Hill Joinery, we pride ourselves on being specialist joiners who transform wood into beautiful, functional designs. Our workshop-based approach allows us to deliver exceptional craftsmanship with meticulous attention to detail, creating bespoke wooden solutions that perfectly match our customers' brief.
