Services
Project Management
We oversee projects from initial design concept to complete installation, ensuring timely delivery and budget adherence. Our team coordinates documentation, manages production schedules, and maintains regular client communication to exceed expectations. This comprehensive approach guarantees seamless execution for both commercial and private clients.
Design
With over 40 years of expertise, our CAD technicians create detailed technical drawings for manufacturing. We translate client requirements into precise designs, incorporating modern aesthetics and functional requirements. This ensures every project aligns perfectly with architectural specifications and client expectations before production begins.
CNC Work
Our state-of-the-art CNC router produces intricate one-off designs or multiple runs with exceptional accuracy. Automation reduces waste and improves production efficiency while maintaining tight tolerances. This technology enables complex components for staircases, cabinetry, and architectural elements with consistent quality.
Joinery
Skilled joiners assemble components using traditional techniques and modern methods. We create durable, aesthetically pleasing joints tailored to each project's requirements, from simple butt joints to complex mortise-and-tenon connections. This craftsmanship ensures structural integrity and visual appeal in every finished product.
Finishing
Our in-house spray department applies protective and decorative finishes to enhance wood surfaces. We offer paint and lacquer options in various sheens, balancing durability with aesthetic appeal. This final step seals the wood, improves resistance to environmental factors, and achieves the desired visual finish for each project.

Brilliant service! We sought a recommended company as it was our first time looking to have bespoke joinery made. And we're so pleased with the results. Being new to the service, we didn't know what we wanted and West Oak were incredibly helpful and patient particularly as we're a little fussy. Their advice on designs and unlimited array of woods were fantastic. I will be recommending you to my family and friends, thank you!

Trevor and the team have provided me with a faultless service for more than 15 years. No job is ever to small or large. The quality of service throughout is always exemplary. The attention to detail and correspondences from the initial contact, to the drawing office and then to the joinery shop and out to delivery, is just as youd expect from a first class business. I would have no hesitation with recommending West Oak Joinery to anyone requiring their services. Keep doing what youre doing guys.
