14 ft Oak Dining Table

We have just moved into an open plan house, we needed a new dining table to fill a large space. I contacted Oliver to give me a quote. He came to discuss our requirments and time scale (we wanted it for Christmas). Oliver involved us along the way, consulting us on fine details and inviting us to his work shop to view 14 ft piece of oak timber he used to make our table.
The result is AMAZING! We are now the proud owners of a magnificant piece of bespoke furniture. Everyone who has seen it has been super impressed with our stunning table. Oliver is truly a skilled craftsman, passionate about his work. We cannot recommend hiim highly enough – we are absolutley delighted with his creation. Thank you Oliver! Jim and Jackie Orrock

Bespoke work, excellent service.

Very pleased with the quality of the joinery from someone who seemed very sympathetic to the materials he used and met our brief very well. We would not hesitate to have further work done and would highly recommend Heart of Oak.

DELIGHTED

We needed to replace a rotting porch with one that fitted the style of our home.. It surpassed our expectations. Top class materials. Well sourced yellow bricks. The carpentry and the walls were of a very high quality. Additionally we asked for Victorian style floor tiling in the porch running through the hall. Very happy with the result. we have since asked the builder to replace the paths around the property. The builder will sit and listen to your requirements and give very helpful hints and tips. He is an expert and we have gained from his expertise. VERY HAPPY and will use again for our future projects.

Excellent joiner and carpenter.

Oliver has done a lot of work for us making cupboards, wonderful new windows and a bathroom. His work is of the highest standard. Once he starts he finishes a job. He is a clean and tidy worker and very pleasant to have around the house and is utterly trustworthy. I recommend him and his work highly.
