Workshop-built joinery, fitted in Goudhurst
Goudhurst's hilltop position and timber-framed cottages mean every survey starts with a structural look first. We handle rear extensions on properties with serious level changes and rebuilds inside the conservation area.
The Goudhurst hilltop conservation area means almost every external alteration goes to TWBC planning — we handle the pre-app and full application as part of the build. Ragstone elevations and tile-hung facades dominate the village core, and we keep stock of matching peg tiles and lime mortar mixes.
Our Biddenden workshop is roughly 9 miles from Goudhurst — a 19-minute drive — so templating visits, fittings and snagging trips don't carry distance charges. We've recently worked on streets including High Street, Cranbrook Road, Balcombes Hill.
Recent Goudhurst project: Oast house re-roof in plain clay tiles with structural timber repairs to the kiln cone.
We work across the TN17 postcodes and recognise the typical housing stock in Goudhurst — Kentish ragstone cottages, tile-hung facades, timber-framed cottages — meaning we already know which scribes, beam tolerances and material substitutions your property will need.

FAQs
Carpentry in Goudhurst — frequently asked
Can you match period mouldings?
Yes — we template existing skirting, architrave and cornice profiles and machine matching runs in oak, ash, tulipwood or painted MDF.
Do you make solid hardwood doors?
Yes — solid oak, ash, walnut and engineered cores, mortise-and-tenon construction, with shellac, oil or paint finishes.
How long do bespoke doors take?
Typical lead time is 6–8 weeks from sign-off including hardware. Installation is 1–2 days per opening including making-good.
Can you fit doors in older properties with out-of-square openings?
Yes — every opening is measured before workshop production and doors are scribed on site to follow the actual opening, not a standard size.
What ironmongery do you supply?
We have trade accounts with Joseph Giles, Croft, Frank Allart and Corston — solid brass, bronze and stainless options in any finish from polished to patinated.
Do you do staircases as well as doors?
Yes — bespoke staircases in oak, ash or painted softwood, including spindles, newels and handrails matched to the property.
