Brian and his team were working on my neighbours house today and just as they were leaving he knocked on my door with a tortoise! It was lost and found under his van! They were heading off for the day and didnt know who he belonged to but were reluctant to leave it behind. It wasn't ours but we took the little thing in as he looked hungry. Turned out he was a very feisty tortoise and wanted to bite everyone! Just before Brian left he popped in to ask about the little chap and if he was eating and drinking. He wasn't as he was desperate to escape! But we agreed to help reunite him with his owner. Thankfully through the power of Facebook 'Billy' was reunited with his family who only lived 6 doors down within the hour. Apparently he's been grounded for a month ;-) thank you Brian for helping the little dude out - you no doubt saved his little life!

  The best way to describe one of Brian's handcrafted doors is a thing of beauty! He is a master Craftsman and buying one of his doors will give your house true character that you won't get with a shop bought door or the dreaded PVC door. I would really recommend that anyone considering a new door pay Brian a visit where they can see first hand how his masterpieces are constructed. You won't want to go else where for a door! Brian gave us some really good advice on the best materials for our dream door and he was also able to build it exactly to our specifications. He also offered to provide us with a free bolt instead of a knocker which we didn't want. Brian thanks so much for our lovely door we love it!! Luke & Helen

  Brian created our lovely new door and was fabulous from start to finish. He gave us progress updates along the way and pictures of the door being made and was great on site. Turned up when they said, did a great job, lovely attention to detail with the mastic matching the grey door frame, quality locks. And the door itself looks just amazing. Now to render the house to finish the look! Thanks Brian.

  Thank you to Brian (for making) and Brian and Martin (for fitting) our wonderful new bespoke hardwood front door in Blackheath, London. We are particularly happy with the custom design, which lets in so much light. The build quality and joinery is really good, with extra thick wood. Everything fits perfectly, and it swings shut with a solid click, just like a high end BMW (I imagine!). Good attention to security with triple locks and toughened double glazed units. Brian and Martin made a couple of initial site visits to measure up, discuss designs, and check the process for removing the old and fitting the new doors. There was a personal touch throughout, with good communication. The build was completed on time, and the fitting carried out in a day (as promised). The overall price was extremely good value compared with quotes from London companies for less high spec products. So we are very happy, and would definitely recommend Brian, Martin/ The Front Door Shop/ BD Joinery to anyone looking for a new high quality door.

  Highly recommend Brian! He was a pleasure to speak with, so helpful and friendly. I shopped around but he offered the best price and came highly recommended from a friend. I am beyond delighted with our bespoke door and surround, which arrived on time with all ironmongery installed.

  First class!! Amazing service, amazing workmanship and amazing attitude. Couldn't be happier with the service we received. Smile everytime we walk past our front door. A wonderful craftman we cant thank Brian enough.

  Beautiful front door and incredible service. We are extremely happy with the end result. Could not recommend enough. Brian was very helpful every step of the way.

  A pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Brian very quick to respond to any questions we had regarding choice of door etc. Very patient as we couldn’t decide initially! On the day of fitting our door he arrived on time and proceeded to uninstall the old door and refit the new one. All rubbish cleared all we have to do now is paint! Thanks again we’re very pleased. Dave and Sofia Mitchell

  Brian and the team were really helpful. We went to them with a design for a solid oak door and with a sample from a new garage so they could match it. The quality of the work was first class and they perfectly matched the garage door. Could not recommend them highly enough

  Brian made and fitted my new oak front door. The quality is first class and it is exactly what I was looking for. Honest advice and quality workmanship. HIGHLY recommended!
