Est. by Lee — joined by Mitch

Joinery you'll still
run your hand over
ten years from now.

LMB Joinery is a father-and-son workshop on the road. Hardwood floors, skirting and picture rails, wall panelling, and the built-in storage that makes a room finally make sense. Quiet on site. Tidy at the end of every day. Built so the next owner will ask who did it.

Two generations

Lee & Mitch.
One trade.

The reason clients keep ringing back, year after year, is simple: the same two people who measured the job are the two people fitting it. Nothing gets handed to a stranger.

Lee

Founder

Joiner — 25+ years on the tools

"If it's not right by the time I leave, I haven't left."

Mitch

Son

Joiner — second generation

"Dad taught me you measure your work by what it looks like in five years, not five minutes."

What we make

A joiner's
specialism list.

Not a builder. Not a fit-out company. Wood, walls and the things you fix to them — done by the people who measured them.

01Underfloor-heating compatible builds

Hardwood & Engineered Floors

Solid and engineered oak, walnut, ash. Subfloor prep, acoustic underlay, edge-finishing, threshold detailing.

02Ovolo, ogee, torus, Victorian bullnose

Skirting & Picture Rails

Profile-matched to period properties or run fresh from new stock. Scribed to walls that haven't been straight since 1908.

03Bespoke to the millimetre

Wall Panelling & Built-In Storage

Shaker, beaded, fluted and flat-panel walls. Understairs cupboards, alcove joinery, banquette seating with the lid that actually shuts.

04Including pocket-door cassette installs

Internal & Pocket Doors

Hung, swung, or slid inside the wall. Solid-core hardwood, rebated frames, ironmongery sourced to suit the era of the house.

A real client's story

How one room turned
into a whole house.

The job most often described in our reviews wasn't a job — it was four years. It started with a floor. Here's what happened next, in the client's own order.

  1. 1Year 1

    The floor

    A single room — oak boards, properly laid. The client expected a tradesman. They got two who tidied up at the end of every day.

  2. 2Year 2

    Skirting & picture rails

    Back in to match the new floor. Profiles run to suit the rest of the house. The kind of detail you stop noticing because it just looks right.

  3. 3Year 3

    Panelling & under-stairs storage

    Half the ground floor by now. Shaker panelling to dado height. Understairs cupboards that finally fit the hoover, the boots, and the parcels.

  4. 4Year 4

    Pocket doors — booked next

    Because by this point, why ring anyone else? Two solid-oak pocket doors, cassette frames in next month.

"Two years on, the floor is just as good as the day they laid it. We've had them back for the skirting, the panelling, the storage under the stairs — and they're coming back again for pocket doors. The most trustworthy joiners we know."— repeat client, paraphrased from review

What clients say

The most trustworthy
joiners they know.

"No mess. Quiet — and we had a newborn at the time. They worked around us, not the other way round."

Client, paraphrased

"Nothing was too much bother. We kept finding extra bits and they just folded them into the job."

Repeat client

"Two years on the floor still looks the day they laid it. Booking them again for pocket doors."
