At F&R Carpentry, our carpentry services extend beyond mere trade; they represent our craft. Founded in February 2023 by two seasoned professionals with over 18 years in the industry, our mission is straightforward: to elevate the standard in construction and deliver work that speaks for itself as premier construction contractors and joinery specialists.

We’re a proud new-build specialist recognized for delivering consistent, high-quality carpentry services efficiently and reliably. From structural joists and custom roofs to first, second, and third fix joinery, we cover every corner of carpentry and joinery with precision and pride.
What sets us apart? We’re not just focused on the numbers. Our team takes pride in delivering craftsmanship without shortcuts. We invest in our workforce, pay fairly, and provide branded uniforms, ensuring that everyone on site represents the F&R name with pride, even if they’re self-employed.
As trusted construction contractors, we are CHAS-accredited and consistently achieve top marks on NHBC CQR inspections throughout all stages of the build process. Whether you’re a major developer seeking reliable contractors or a custom build client in need of bespoke joinery specialists, F&R Carpentry is the team that shows up, stands out, and gets it done right.
Jack and Russ first crossed paths on site back in 2016, quickly forming a solid friendship through a shared passion for quality craftsmanship in carpentry services. With over 18 years of experience each in the carpentry trade, they decided in 2023 to channel their expertise as construction contractors into something of their own - and so, F&R Carpentry was born. Just three months after launching, the duo landed their first major contract for Bloor Homes in Brooksby, Melton Mowbray. Since then, they’ve gone from strength to strength securing further housing developments, one-off contracts, and building a reputation as joinery specialists known for uncompromising quality.
