Fabulous! Neil and his recommended sub contractor went above and beyond to help out myself and my family when we had some serious plumbing issues starting right when I was ~32 weeks pregnant! Exceptional customer service and fantastic work on the job too!

My second time using Elphinstone Group to work at my property, this time for quite a big project to construct a large detached timber framed two car garage/workshop.

Once again, I'm blown away with quality of work, the attention to detail, and the outstanding customer service from Neil and the team. These guys are truly amazing, they make it all look so easy, they turn up on time, work non stop all day and get the job done.

Elphinstone Group couldn't be more accommodating and nobody could have done better by me, that's why I have no hesitation in recommending them 100% and have already invited them back for more interior refurbishment later this year.

So greatful to Neil for coming to the rescue when I was badly let down by another contractor. Neil and his painter Ben completely redecorated three bedrooms, my hall, stairs and upper landing, all done to the very highest standard in just one week. The finish is amazing, it's a total transformation and I'm absolutely delighted with it, Ben really is a first class painter who takes great pride in his work, it was a real pleasure to have these guys work on my house and I look forward to seeing them here again soon to do some more work for me. SIMPLY THE BEST !

Neil was able to provide a fast, reliable and highly efficient service. We had a problem with a very damp asphalt floor in our kitchen, discovered when a new floor was due to be fitted. The job of removing the asphalt floor was over and above what the floor fitters could do. Elphinstone Joinery were able to provide what was required to remove the asphalt, instal a barrier against future dampness and lay a new concrete floor. I would readily recommend the Company and will use them in the future.

We recently engaged Neil to refit our entire kitchen and also had him return to fit out a small toilet / utility room. What a pleasure it was to work with Neil and his colleagues on both jobs. From the outset Neil was happy to listen to our requirements and throughout the work always remembered what we wanted and made very constructive suggestions on how best to complete the work. Both Neil and all his sub contractors were always punctual, polite and considerate throughout the work. They worked hard and always turned up when they said they would. The quality of finish on all the work (joinery, electrical, plumbing and plastering) is superb and Neil will be our first call for any future work. I should add that when we were choosing between kitchens Neil put us in touch with a designer he works closely with at Howdens and she was also fantastic, her design input and suggestions have given us a fantastic kitchen. They clearly work very well as a team, certainly recommend both.
I should clarify that I have been a bit slow to leave my review so this relates to work that was undertaken a few months ago before the current restrictions

Neil recently put in a kitchen for us. From our initial contact he was generous with his advice and ideas. All his team turned up when he said they would. They were respectful of our property and we are delighted with the result of their labours. Neil and Simon take great pride in their work, are perfectionists and only leave when you're happy. I have no hesitation in recommending Neil and we'll certainly look forward to working with him again on future projects.

Second time using Neil, the first was a large renovation project of an entire property, this time just a small piece of joinery. Neil was as helpful as ever and the end result exactly as specified, delivered and assembled promptly.

We had a small job done by Neil - cutting our worktop to make space for a fridge freezer and moving cabinets around the wall. He was very reasonably priced for a small job and was very quick on the day - including tidying up and leaving the kitchen in a great condition. Helped us with some ideas too when he came for a quote - which worked out great. Would definitely use him again for jobs.

Really impressed with Neil from the outset.
He took the time to listen to our requirements and offered advice of what was and wasn’t possible but offered solutions with a positive attitude. The job was completed in good time despite it being more complicated than originally thought. Very friendly guy and would use again.

Fantastic quality. Took time to come to property and to listen to all our requirements before drawing up a quote. Had a hearth built out and I set fire installed. Wall and pocket doors also constructed. Skirting and heading done excellently. All work done to a very high standard and attention paid to detail. Would absolutely recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to have Neil for further work.

I had Elphinstone Joinery carry out work on my flat; replacement of all internal doors, facings, skirtings and fitting a built-in wardrobe. Neil and his team were great throughout; when quoting Neil was great at making recommendations and having ideas, and everything was completed to a high standard and with no stress. Would definitely recommend.

Neil is an artisan: As well as being an excellent joiner-cum-carpenter, Neil is also an exceptional (and practical) designer.

We needed a floor-to-ceiling bookcase and a floor-to-ceiling shelved cupboard across a wall in a small study plus shelving in an awkward bare-brick recess.

Not long after Neil had looked at our projects, he came back with his quotation - AND
suggestions. Everything is beyond our expectations..

Neil's contacts for flooring and electrics were to a very high standard as well.

So much integrity and old-school values - our many, many thanks.

I highly recommend Neil.

Neil recently completed a full property renovation (2 bedroom flat) for us in an entirely satisfactory way.

From start to finish, Neil was professional while friendly. He had useful inputs and ideas from the initial design stage and took this forward, taking charge of organising all the required trades to execute the project. We left Neil with the keys while on holiday for the first couple of weeks and were very pleasantly surprised to find great progress from leaving Neil to it on our return. This trust and resulting experience continued throughout the duration of the project.

Neil cares and takes pride in the job. He communicates well, works hard to get stuff done, takes ownership of problems, provides solutions, treats work like it was his own property and delivers results to a very high standard. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone and hope we have the chance to use him again ourselves.

Great job Neil!
