Exceptional joinery work and an outstanding team! The quality and attention to detail were brilliant. Fred and his team are friendly, professional and incredibly willing to go above and beyond to find a solution to every little puzzle that came up along the way. Nothing seemed too difficult, inconvenient or impossible. Fred and his team approached every challenge with a smile, a positive attitude and a genuine desire to get things right, the end result was fantastic and I am very impressed with both the workmanship and the care that went into the project. I highly recommend Blackwood Joinery - exceptional work and a pleasure to deal with from start to finish.

We couldn’t have been happier. Fred and the team showed both incredible vision to maximise the use of our space and high quality technical trade expertise to custom make and install the kitchen, move the plumbing and basin, increase the ceiling, move walls and doors, redesign laundry and replace floorboards! Thanks for all your hard work and professionalism 🙏

We are incredibly happy with the outdoor kitchen that was installed by Fred and the Blackwood team. The materials are absolute quality and the finish seamless. On top of this, Fred was an absolute pleasure to deal with, responsive and always available to answer questions and provide advice. We will be sure to use Fred and his team again for our next building job and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting some work done to their house.

Fred, Matt and the team have done a number of jobs for us over the last few years, including the complete renovation of a bathroom, laundry and toilet, replacement of a roof and guttering, and extensive refurbishment of external woodwork for a 100-year-old house. They have always provided a highly professional level of service, expert and creative advice and excellent workmanship, going above and beyond stated requirements to ensure we were happy with the result. Very happy to recommend their services.

I've done lots of joinery and carpentry work over the years and found Fred and Matt at Blackwood some of the best. Beautiful work and a very quick turnaround. Additionally, whilst my job was small, it was very bespoke and needed a lot of attention to detail, product knowledge and amendments as we worked out the plans. Fred was very patient and understanding and it was a pleasure to work with him. I have no hesitation recommending their work.

I recently hired Blackwood Carpentry and Joinery for a complete renovation of my home, including a stunning overhaul of the kitchen and bathroom. The experience was nothing short of fantastic! From the initial consultation, the team demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. They took the time to understand my vision for the renovation, offering insightful suggestions that truly elevated the final outcome. Their attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring that every aspect was thoughtfully executed. The quality of craftsmanship in my new kitchen is outstanding. The custom cabinetry not only looks beautiful but also maximizes storage and functionality, making cooking and entertaining a joy. The bathroom renovation transformed the space into a luxurious retreat, featuring elegant fixtures and a sleek design that perfectly aligns with my personal style. Communication was a highlight of working with Blackwood. The team kept me informed throughout the renovation process, addressing any questions or concerns I had promptly. They completed the project on schedule and maintained a clean and organized work environment, which I greatly appreciated. I can't thank Blackwood Carpentry and Joinery enough for their hard work and dedication. If you're considering a renovation, I wholeheartedly recommend them. Their expertise in creating beautiful and functional spaces is unmatched!
