Bristol Carpentry

Bespoke carpentry,
built with care.

Wardrobes, shelving, decking, doors and anything in wood — handled with the same respect I'd want in my own home.

About

A carpenter you can trust in your home.

I'm Bob Chapman — the carpenter behind Lansdown Wood. I work with care, diligence and respect in your home, as I'd expect of any tradesperson that enters mine. Whether it's a single hung door or a houseful of fitted storage, the standard is the same: thoughtful work, finished properly, no mess left behind.

What I do

Anything that uses wood.

From bespoke joinery to honest day-rate jobs, here's the range of work I take on across Bristol.

  • 01

    Bespoke wardrobes & cupboards

    Built into your space, finished to suit the room.

  • 02

    Shelving systems

    Alcoves, studies, awkward corners — made to fit.

  • 03

    Architrave, skirting & rails

    Including dado and picture rail, properly mitred.

  • 04

    Doors hung & fitted

    New, reclaimed, or rehung in tricky old frames.

  • 05

    Decking

    Built to last, levelled and finished cleanly.

  • 06

    Bike & bin sheds

    Tidy, weather-tight stores for the front or back.

  • 07

    Boxing in

    Pipes, meters and ugly bits — neatly hidden.

  • 08

    Flat-pack assembly

    For when life's too short to read the manual.

  • 09

    Anything in wood

    If it's made of timber, ask — I've probably done it.

Kind words

What clients say.

"Bob did a fantastic job of rehanging one door and fitting a new one. Both beautifully done with all the bespoke fiddling around that old door frames require. The end result is a work of art!"
— Liam
"We have been impressed from start to finish with the quality of Bob's work. We are extremely happy with our new bespoke fireplace. Looking forward to seeing Bob in the new year to work on more projects."
— Kay
"Bob built a cracking bin store for us. Friendly, approachable and great attention to detail. 5★ highly recommend."
— Andy
"Bob replied to our initial enquiry quickly and was able to book the work in promptly. He has left the space immaculate and it's clear to see how talented he is as a carpenter. Very pleased with the work and would highly recommend."
— Glenda
"I was very pleased with the jobs that Bob did for me — replacing my decking plus a few jobs indoors. There were complications due to unforeseen circumstances but Bob handled it calmly and got down to finding a resolution immediately, which made it a much less stressful situation. Everything was completed in time and the finish was excellent. I had opted for reclaimed doors and locks in the spirit of reusing — a harder job than using new — but Bob wasn't fazed and did a lovely job, in keeping with the rest of the house. If I have any more carpentry to be done, he will be the person I call."
