About Our Joinery Services
At LC Carpentry, we provide precision joinery for homeowners across Surrey – from fitting and hanging doors to creating custom cabinetry and architectural woodwork. Joinery is the branch of carpentry that demands the closest tolerances: components have to fit exactly, joints have to be tight, and the finished result needs to look as though it was always part of the building.
Our Joinery Services
We offer a full range of joinery for both practical and decorative needs. At LC Carpentry we specialise in:
Door & Window Joinery
Fitting, hanging, and repair of internal and external doors and windows – including adjustment of existing doors that have dropped, warped, or stopped latching correctly.
Custom Cabinetry
Bespoke cabinets, wardrobes, and storage built to your exact dimensions and specification, using the right materials and joints for the application.
Architectural & Decorative Joinery
Handcrafted mouldings, panelling, mantels, staircases, and other interior joinery features that add character and permanence to a space.

Frequently Asked Questions About Joinery
What’s the difference between joinery and carpentry?
Joinery refers to the more precise, detail-focused end of woodworking – fitting doors, creating cabinets, producing mouldings and architectural features where tight tolerances and clean joints matter. Carpentry covers a broader range of structural and finishing work. In practice, most skilled tradespeople do both. At LC Carpentry, we provide the full range, with City & Guilds qualifications covering both carpentry and joinery.
What types of timber do you use for joinery projects?
We match the timber to the job. For painted finishes, high-grade softwood like pine or a quality MDF are usually the practical choice. For natural finishes, we work in hardwoods including oak, walnut, and ash. For external joinery, we’ll always discuss durability and maintenance requirements as part of the material selection. We won’t specify a more expensive material than the application warrants.
Can you match existing joinery in my home?
Yes, and it’s something we do regularly. Period properties in particular often need new joinery that matches what’s already there – whether that’s door styles, moulding profiles, or window detailing. We can source matching timber and profiles from suppliers, or where the original is unusual or ornate, take templates and work with specialist suppliers to replicate it accurately.
Do you carry out joinery repairs?
Yes. Repairs are a regular part of our work – sticking or dropping doors, damaged window frames, cabinet hinges that have failed, mouldings that have been knocked or split. We always assess whether repair is viable before recommending replacement, and we’re upfront about which option makes more sense for the long term.
How long do joinery projects typically take?
It varies considerably. Hanging a single door is usually a half day job. Fitting doors throughout a house after a renovation might take two to three days. Bespoke cabinetry or more complex architectural joinery could take several weeks from survey to installation. We give you a realistic timeframe at quote stage based on the actual scope of your project.
How do you ensure quality on joinery work?
It comes down to preparation and precision. We measure properly before ordering or cutting anything, prepare the substrate correctly so components have a solid base to work from, and take the time to get fittings right rather than rushing through. City & Guilds qualifications set a baseline, but it’s the 20+ years of practical experience that makes the difference on-site.
