I needed to have two doors shaved after a new carpet was fitted. I researched local joiners and contacted Ryan. The first thing I noticed was Ryan's communication skills - he was really polite and came across as a great people person. He attended my house, shaved both doors to a really high standard and also resolved an issue I had with a snapped screw stuck in a tile. Superb service. Will definitely use Ryan again. Highly recommended.
Ryan is polite, punctual and hardworking. He pays attention to detail, gives sound advice and only provides very good quality materials. We are extremely pleased with his workmanship and value for our money. Thank you Ryan for a good job well done. We would not hesitate to recommend Ryan to anyone requiring a first class joiner.
Ryan was hired to replace a hardwood front door frame and door. Whilst a very pleasant and friendly guy I'm afraid the standard of finish/ attention to detail is not what I would expect from a professional joiner. On closer inspection of the job after Ryan had left I found that there were large gaps around the hinge cut outs in the expensive hardwood frame and the door was not even flush with the frame and in fact wasn't even touching the weather seals. With the door closed you can feel a gale blowing through it and it's obviously not weather tight either, as we found out to our cost yesterday during the rain, as we now have a big puddle on the floor in our entrance hall. Having let Ryan know I wasn't happy with the finish, he informed me that there had been a problem with the seals on the frame (they'd been too hard and meant it wouldn't close) hence why he set the door further back and not flush, but none of this was mentioned at the time of fitting (or alternatives suggested like changing the seals which are readily available from most DIY stores) and it was visibly obvious that the door wasn't sealing when he left the job but said nothing which is extremely disappointing. In addition, other small things like the frame was cut by handsaw rather than chop saw to ensure precise and accurate cuts. The frame wasn't glued together when fitting to add strength and prevent any potential water ingress in the joints. Saw gouge marks were left in the sill from where he'd cut the threshold strip. The weather bar on the door has been cut short so that rain leaks in at the corners, all things that whilst not terrible are not the sort of standards I expect from a professional with a good attention to detail. I appreciate this review is in contrast to other reviews here so I have either been unlucky or the standards other expect are not what mine are, but I feel the quality of the job I received was more that of an odd job man/property maintenance rather than a specialist joiner. I am now going to have to spend time remedying this myself or pay to have another "professional" sort it which is extremely annoying/disappointing.Moreexpand_more
Last week Ryan came round to fit some skirting boards for us. He was very friendly and helpful both when coming round to quote and when coming to do the work. When quoting, he brought a catalogue with him so I could choose which skirting boards I required which I found very useful. He was very tidy and cleared up all his rubbish. During the work he explained any problems he was having (plasterer leaving me with walls that weren't flat! ), but he was able to overcome them and left a brilliant finish ready for us to paint. Would definitely recommend him and will be using him again in future.
RJ Joinery supplied and fitted me a new fence. When Ryan came out to price up the job he explained exactly what materials he would be using and provided a written quote so I knew exactly what I was paying for. On the day of the job the weather was horrendous and I did wonder if he would turn up but he did and he worked through the rain. They were professional and worked tirelessly the whole day and part of the following day to get the job done. I would have no problem recommending them and would definitely use again if I needed any work doing.
This is the second time Ryan has done some work for me. This time he fitted an external door complete with door furniture and a cat flap. His work is excellent; he explained what he was doing and why, gave me some great advice about finishing the door and left the work area clean and tidy. I would recommend him without reservation.
Selected RF joinery after posting a job for a joiner. Please ensure you have everything written down and agree a price. Really disappointed with attitude (constant complaint re other workmen) and very expensive for job - purely because nothing was written down so it became easy to misunderstand requirements. He talks a lot about customer satisfaction but in all honesty I don't think he actually understands what that means.
Ryan was friendly and professional and explained exactly what he was going to do to complete my job which he did to a high standard. He put my furniture back for me and cleaned up which was a bonus and I would definitely use him again in the future if need be :-).
Just one word brilliant work, if you want somebody to come to your house, who is hard working, reliable and has great attention to detail, you need rf joinery, he didn't even want drinks making he just got struck straight in, iv now booked him for another job I need doing, he also is very very tidy and clears everything up as he goes along, he also explains everything as he goes along and the best way to deal with problems if they pop up, you wont go wrong having rf joinery.
I have used RF Joinery today to put up the woodwork for a new shop sign and the work is outstanding. The joiner, Ryan, was very professional and was a very tidy worker. I will use the company again when I need anything doing for home or work without hesitation. Caroline Green - Pottering Around, Chapeltown, Sheffield.
Very professional guy who has a great attention to detail and leaves a great finish. He's completing some work for me at the moment and he'll be the first guy I call when I need a joiner again. Good value for money and worked until 7 to make sure he was 100% happy with the job he left.
