What Our Clients Say

“The best way I can find of describing Deben Joinery’s work is handmade perfection.”

Maria Claydon
Suffolk

“Deben Joinery is a longstanding specialist joinery contractor of our family business.  Their calibre of work is exceptional and has been proven throughout our working partnership.  Even challenging ideas and bespoke designs never seem to faze Tony and the team.  They take on and deliver each project with expertise, offering creative solutions if they feel that a project would benefit from it. For us, we see Deben Joinery as an extension of our brand and reputation, which is why we can work in collaboration with total confidence and trust.  Being a local business to us also has its advantages, plus there is always a warm welcome and the comfort of knowing that their craftsmanship and quality is consistently outstanding.”

“The windows look super. Fantastic job thank you. Also, please pass on our thanks to the fitters – they were a pleasure to have around and did a super job.”

Dr. Coutts

“I’ve seen many versions of double glazed sash windows, they are a notoriously difficult thing to get right.

“I wasn’t disappointed with my first order from Tony at Deben Joinery, the attention to detail and the finish was excellent plus everything worked; smooth opening and closing, draught-proof and quiet. A real pleasure to fit and use.

“Over the years Deben Joinery has been my ‘go to’ company for doors, windows and anything else made out of wood. They’ve developed some great systems to deliver excellent quality on time in a friendly and efficient manner.

“We’ve worked together to solve design problems with staircases, roofs, windows, doors and even my personal scratch built Canadian canoe. I’ve watched the company develop and innovate, some of our projects involve some real joinery challenges and, with enthusiasm Deben has risen to each one.” 

Bamber Johnson
Johnson Friel Ltd

“We are very happy with the windows and door and had very nice feedback from neighbours probably some custom for you hopefully. We would also like to thank you for your attentive replies to queries and sorting everything out for us immediately – it is much appreciated. Also like to thank the fitters who were great and did a fantastic job and left everywhere as neat and clean as possible.

“Would definitely recommend to others.”

Lorraine Walster

“Deben Joinery have been outstanding. We have used them on a number of occasions over the years, most recently to supply and fit box sash and casement windows, new hardwood exterior and interior doors, and bespoke freestanding joinery to our period London and Suffolk homes.

“We couldn’t speak more highly of their work.  We were guided on the different types of wood (Oak, Tulip Wood and Utile) to best suit the purpose for each piece, and each item was painted and finished to our specific colour schemes. The quality of materials used, plus the friendly and professional service and standard of joinery, means we wouldn’t hesitate to use them again – well worth the investment!”

Joe Whitfield

“I am delighted with the work Deben Joinery has recently carried out at our property. Following my initial meeting with Deben Joinery on site, we received a prompt and competitive quotation which, after accepting, they carried out a comprehensive survey of our house.

“Deben Joinery subsequently manufactured and installed new double glazed windows and doors throughout our property without a hitch. The quality of the product and tidiness of installation was exceptional and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Deben Joinery for any work of a similar nature.”

Paul Shadbolt

“I just wanted to say thank you for all your efforts regarding the windows and that Scott and Simon have done a great job. I don’t think we could have had a better couple of guys installing. I trust that it helped by removing the inside woodwork, I now have quite a bit of work to do replacing it but thankfully my uncle has offered to take the lead.”

Mr. Sullivan

“The finish of the solid timber is one of the best I have come across in over 20 years in this industry.”

Simon Lewis
IPI Ltd

“We thrive on winning repeat business for specialist builders work so working with the best subcontractors is a big part of our success.  Deben Joinery have produced the finest sash and casement windows, bespoke staircases, louvre and bi-fold doors and unique one-off pieces of joinery for us on many occasions. You just know that their work will always be made with precision, and that the quality of workmanship and materials they use is second-to-none.  Whether it is a large or small order, nothing is too much trouble. They really get under-the-skin of each project and their eye for detailing, finishing and reliability is why Deben Joinery is one of our repeat and preferred suppliers.”

Matt Smith
Oakridge Construction

“It is all in the curves. How do you persuade the insides of a 50-year old oak tree to arc into a perfect 120cm diameter circle? Pure magic. But Graham and the team at Deben Joinery of wood-whispering geniuses make the impossible happen. The result is a beautiful feature, skilfully made.

“The Deben team doesn’t stop there: custom-made beds, wardrobes, dressing room 9-drawer cabinet, vanity and media room units, gates, banquet seating and furniture for our garden office from Accoya, American Black Walnut, European Oak and Ash. The craftsmanship is exceptional, with real attention to the fiddly details needed to turn this most contemporary of joinery packages from technical drawings into a reality that combines stunningly with the oddities and unevenness of a Grade 2 listed property.”

Laurence, London
