🔨 L V T 🔨 Back at my guest house customer to change out some carpet in one of their personal rooms for some @howdensjoinery LVT flooring. 6mm ply laid down first. Nice and easy with only a few tricky cuts and a some scribes. Last pic is what I’m required to start the day with every time I work there 👌🏼🫃🏽 Great customers and even better friends. #lvt #floor #6 #millimetre #plywood #carpenter #carpentry #falmouth #cornwall #fry #up #bacon #sausage #egg #yum

S T A I R R E N O Brought this staircase up to date this week. All materials sourced from @howdensjoinery. After chatting with super chips @damokynaston & @mb_carpentryandinteriors_ I decided to utilise the brilliant @zipbolt_australia fixings for the newel posts - brilliant for this application where removing the old newels completely was a no go. Happy with the finished results and customers are over the moon. Onto the next 💪🏼 #carpenter #carpentry #budock #cornwall #stairs #oak #handrail #primed #white #spindles #renovation #glow #up #falmouth

Finished the week off with a couple of @howdensjoinery pre-finished oak doors. Builder will be bonding out and re skimming the walls seen to the sides and above the doors due to these openings being cut through exterior walls into a new extension. Nice to help my mate @stewarttogneri get some finishing touches underway. #carpenter #carpentry #more #oak #doors #pre #finished #falmouth #cornwall

O A K G L O W U P To the customers delight this week was the time to switch out the very old and odd size front door of an on going renovation I’m doing some carpentry bits on. The builders will be making good above and then I’ll be installing oak architrave pieces to close it in nicely as it had to finish flush with the external face. Let’s take a minute to talk about letterboxes, does anyone actually like doing them? They’re all different to each other and put the fear of God in you when you’re cutting them out 🤯 Give it 10 years and we won’t have letters so can do away with the letterbox 🤣 Even managed to get the @lamello_community in action on this one installing the weather bar with 3x clamex. Easy peasy 👌🏼 #carpenter #carpentry #falmouth #cornwall #oak #front #door #black #hardware #lamellocommunity

U N D E R S T A I R S S T O R A G E 8x 800mm drawers 1x Cupboard with wine rack Everything on push to open for that nice flush finish. @finsauk hydrofugo throughout Customer has opted to paint themselves so that’s my part done. #storage #solutions #bespoke #under #stairs #mdf #mrmdf #drawers #cupboard #wine #rack #falmouth #cornwall

Bits and pieces at this other renovation job I’ve been back and fourth to. ~ new spindles ~ understairs doors and facade ~ consumer unit cupboard. ~ shelving. ~ boiler cupboard. ~ thin cill board made to look like 18mm with a front nosing. ~ skirting & architrave which I forgot to photo along with an off the shelf floating shelf and curtain rail. #carpenter #carpentry #bespoke #cupboards #under #stairs #spindles #renovation #doors #mdf #penryn #falmouth #cornwall

Job from the beginning of the week was at an ongoing renovation job near my house. Made up a 300mm door liner to close this opening in nicely and fitted a pre finished oak door to match all the other new ones going into the property. Put a really wide door stop to hide the join and some of the fixings. Can’t get it that wide and 12mm off the shelf so my mate sam @blackrockjoinery whipped it through the thicknesser for me. No need to hang around while glueing these up as I gave the @lamello_community clamex, tenso and biscos a whirl and they worked a treat! Once painted up will look the biz! #carpenter #carpentry #oak #pre #finished #door #massive #lining #falmouth #cornwall

Jumping on the band wagon as @davecullenjoinery has also received one. But how could I not. This was #gifted to me by Dan and the gang over at @trigjig The Glyder is a thing of beauty and an innovation. I’m going to go ahead and claim the inspiration behind this tool being made as I messaged the guys a while back saying “you need to make a better combi square than what’s available” And boy have they done that!! Very impressed that a homegrown company can turn a request over message into reality and in a way that’s completely unique! Well done @trigjig, you’ve smashed it!!

I should be arrested and locked up for working a Sunday!! Absolutely criminal!! Anyway with holiday coming up muggins over here trying to keep people happy. Back to this recent job to fit out the cupboards with slatted shelving. For such basic shelving it’s still very time consuming. #carpenter #carpentry #working #on #a #sunday #fml #why #shelving #wood #bespoke #falmouth #cornwall #mawnan #helford

Job from last week I forgot to post. Bit of flooring, door linings, skirting and a new door. This laminate comes out the pack with the distressed look just in case you’re wondering if I had a nightmare 🤣 Nice and local this one being the next street up from mine. More work to be done here! #carpenter #carpentry #falmouth #cornwall #flooring #oak #door #black #hardware #reno #renovation

Transformation time! Out with the old yellow type laminate and in with some nice oak engineered uniclic flooring. A few cheeky room transitions and scribes on this on which really had me scratching my head at times. Got them cracked and looking decent so I’m happy. There’ll be oak door bars going in at a later date on 3 of the doorways but due to lack of stock we didn’t have them. #carpenter #carpentry #floor #engineered #oak #skirting #mylor #falmouth #cornwall

Finally got round to finishing off the deck at home earlier today. Definitely not my first choice of things to do on a hangover 😵 Got the little apprentices out to do the last two screws 👌🏼 #carpenter #carpentry #deck #wood #garden #space #falmouth #cornwall
