The business was established in 1984 by John and Alan Ridell and Alan is your first point of contact.  The workshop is in Warfield, near Bracknell in Berkshire.

We do not have an established product list; we make to order, and relish the opportunity to be doing something this week which is completely different from what we did last week.  We are happy to work from an Architect’s specified design or from a Client’s outline idea.  We are always willing to make suggestions about how a design might be altered to make it more cost efficient or more effective against the weather, for instance.

If you have a requirement for high quality joinery, the first step is to contact us with an outline of what is needed.  If you have sketches or drawings it is worth sending those with your enquiry as they are immensely helpful in allowing us to gain an overall impression of what you need.  When we have enough information we will prepare a written Quotation and send it to you.  If the Quotation is accepted, the job can be set in motion by the payment of a deposit.  The deposit is generally 30% of the full quoted value.

When a job is under way we nearly always produce a scale drawing of the item before production commences.  This can then be sent to you, or you can visit the workshop to review it, and alterations can be made if required.  It is much easier to alter a drawing than to re-make a window!  Many of our Clients really appreciate this aspect of our service, and it has been known to save the day.
