“Our project involved converting four flats in a Georgian House into one dwelling which was a major undertaking for us. We were nervous at the outset because we didn’t know what to expect and lived far away. Working with Chris and Adam at CJR gave us confidence to the extent we thoroughly enjoyed the process. The standard of work was excellent, response times fast and we trusted them to do what we wanted. We are delighted with our new home which has exceeded our expectations.”

"Adam and the CJR team have helped me on a number of projects large and small, and every aspect of the work has been faultless. I have no hesitation in recommending CJR to others.''

“Very professional company to deal with in the restoration / upgrade of our Georgian house in Worrcester. They delivered a really outstanding quality of work and were very flexible in terms of changes. We also found them very helpful in terms of understanding design options. A great company to work with and would not hesitate to use them again in the future.”

Mr and Mrs Whitney

"We had a very positive experience with CJR. They were professional, administratively excellent and communicative as well as providing exceptional renovation services on a project which required a wide variety of different trades in a large grade 2 listed property."

John Edwards

" We chose CJR Carpentry for our kitchen extension project from a local recommendation. Of the Quotes we obtained, theirs was the most competitive and we couldn't have been more pleased with our decision. From outset to completion their professional approach was greatly appreciated. "Living with the builders in" was a pleasure - clean and tidied up at the end of each day, communication excellent, on schedule and on site when they said they would be , helpful and accommodating to our questions and some plan changes and the team around them efficient, polite and friendly. Their attention to detail was second to none and the final result stunning. we would highly recommend their services. " Hopefully see you next week Adam to look at the next "unplanned" stage of our works !!!

“Chris and the team at CJR have completed a number of building projects for us over the years both on our 19th century barn conversion and also at the houses of both of our children. We have always found Chris very easy to work with and have been very satisfied with the quality of the service provided, both in terms of creativity and attention to detail through the design stage, and later in the selection of high quality sub contractors and suppliers, ensuring consistent good quality work and overall achievement of agreed budgets. Moreover, it is the intangible advice and expertise provided by Chris and the team in converting your partially developed ideas into a practical reality sympathetic to the existing building structure that we found most helpful. We therefore have no hesitation in recommending Chris and CJR for any similar work.”

Ian and June

"We have worked with CJR on multiple projects over the past few years, and they have been brilliant at every stage. They are meticulous with their CDM documentation and maintain clear, consistent communication with tenants throughout. They also take a proactive approach by recommending alternative methods and tailored solutions that are site and tenant specific, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both the building and its occupants.

 The quality of CJR’s work is consistently excellent. They set themselves very high standards and clearly take great pride in what they deliver. They have also proven to be responsive when unexpected issues arise on site, promptly informing us and working collaboratively to identify and implement effective solutions. We would have no hesitation in recommending CJR Carpentry and look forward to working with them again in the future."

Our initial contact with CJR Carpentry & Building Services was via architects Nick Joyce architects Ltd, who we appointed to help design 3 car garage , you take a leap of faith when appointing builders which we had not done before. The decision to go with Nick Joyce architects Ltd appointed builder and partner CJR Carpentry & Building Services was without doubt the easiest decision , once we met Chris and Adam the owners we felt confident we we’re in good hands approving the build following short consultation and formal quotation which we had compared to others , CJR quotation was not the lowest however, the way the quotation was structed made sense was easy to follow and allowed for stage payments & confidence to approve. During the first stage the weather was typically British, yet no excuses their many trades turned up on time and left on time every day, quality of workmanship was to a high standard which was agreed during our first consultation we wanted to be open and transparent and leave no misunderstanding. CJR have now completed the work with no issues and would 100% recommend CJR Carpentry & Building Services to anytime looking for quality and competitive price not the lowest.

After using a large company that over ran in both time and costs we engaged Chris and CJR. They were professional in their work, kept us informed of what was happening, kept to the time table and costs. We were so happy with the first part of the project on our grade II list property that we engaged them again. We will happily work with CJR Carpentry and Building in the future. They are a great team, work extremely hard, have a good quality of finish and great attention to detail. The site was left spotless.

Pete and Chris

We used CJR for an extension on our listed Georgian property. Chris and his team came out and quoted for the works he was open and honest about what the cost of this and what work was involved. Chris and the team were professionals at all times and did a fantastic job. They were always respectful of the fact that we were still living in the house whilst the building work was completed and always ensured they left it tidy and safe before they left each night. we wouldn't hesitate in using them again for other projects in our home. 

Leanne

Chris and his team have been great. Easy to negotiate with and prompt in answering all our questions throughout the whole process. Chris expects high standards in his work and from his colleagues, which gives you confidence in his advice. We are really happy with the end result.
