William Banfield

We wanted a tv unit made to match our existing oak furniture. Will was recommended to us by a friend and has a good reputation. We provided him with the required specifications and within a few weeks, the unit was complete. We could not be happier with the finished product. Better than we imagined - very well made solid piece of furniture which goes beautifully with our existing set.

Will made myself and my partner a corner bench for dining, with hinged storage underneath. We are absolutely delighted with the piece and will 100% be using Will again. Will really spent a lot of time on making sure the design was right for us, and was great with communication before and during. - Very reasonably priced - Incredibly time efficient - Great attention to detail - Passionate about the job Very talented and lovely guy, 100% recommend !!

Will made our bedroom furniture and I literally couldn't be happier. We spent a while talking with him about what our needs were and how we wanted the room to look, Will took on board every word and came up with something better than either of us could have ever expected. He has excellent communication skills and is always upfront about what he can/can't do. We've loved his work, and of course working with him, so much that we've already asked him to start a second project with a view to doing a third. I can't recommend him more highly. We've worked with several joiners in Bristol and while we've had good results from them, no one has given us results to the level Will has, we are thrilled and confident you will be too!

Highly professional. Very high quality job Will did fitted wardrobes for us ans created a shelving unit off this, as well as shelving unit to work in our kitchen and a cabinet. High attention to detail - treats the work as if he were doing it for his own home in terms of quality and finish. Really unique to find someone who has such talent and commitment to their work. We feel very lucky to have found him. We’ve had so many compliments and requests for his details when people have seen the work he did for us. Plus cleaned up really well after he was done! Really nice guy - could not recommend highly enough.

We recently had major building work on our house, including a rear extension and knocking through the kitchen and dining room. We hired Will and his colleague Liam to design and build the kitchen. We looked at lots of options before choosing to work with them - from Howdens or Ikea carcasses with custom fronts to other bespoke services. We had a clear idea of what we wanted in terms of materials (birch ply, stainless steel and marble). We chose Will and Liam because they were willing to work with a range of materials, had a flexible attitude and worked closely with us to get the design just right. They also made life easy for us by liaising with other suppliers (e.g. steel manufacturers for the worktop and our plumber) and sourcing suppliers from their network when needed (e.g. someone to make bespoke shelf brackets for our open shelving). This was crucial when we were already managing a large house refurb project and didn't want the extra hassle of liaising with lots of contractors for the kitchen too. We are very happy with the quality and finish of the kitchen and would recommend their work for similar projects.

I commissioned Will to make a pair of driveway gates. His attention to detail at the design and build stages was second to none. He hand selected the timber from a sustainable source and even hand made the boards from the selected timber. He also offered several options for the source of the wood. The results speak for themselves as can be seen from the pictures. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will be using him again for other projects

I work from home as a music producer and have a small space which I spend a lot of hours in, so needed a carefully designed unit/desk that would ensure the space didn't feel claustrophobic. Will came around for an initial consultation and researched my working style carefully, which meant he was able to design the perfect desk to meet my needs. Not only did the desk exceed expectations, but he took time to consider the whole room, suggesting additional features such as shelving etc, which has brought the room together perfectly and given it a great working atmosphere. Will met deadlines and left the area tidy and clean when leaving for the day - which is something that we valued with a 2 year old in the house! Will more than exceeded expectations and I would recommend him to all.
