Carpenter in Hedge End
Isaac is based in Botley, a few minutes from Hedge End, and takes on gates, doors, shelving and smaller carpentry jobs across the area.
Hedge End sits right next door to Botley, where Isaac is based, so it is one of the easiest places for him to get to. That matters on smaller jobs. A quick look at a sticking door or a sagging gate is not worth a long drive for anyone, and being close by means he can fit a site visit in around other work rather than making you wait weeks.
What Isaac does in Hedge End
The work here is a mix. Older roads near the centre have timber side gates and original doors that have been painted over for decades. The newer estates tend to need different things: internal doors that have dropped as the house settled, shelving and storage in alcoves, and kitchens being refitted once the original builder units start to tire.
- Garden and side gates — repairs where the timber is sound, full replacements where it is not.
- Internal doors — hanging new doors, easing ones that stick, and fitting handles, latches and hinges.
- Shelving and storage — alcove shelves, garage storage and utility rooms.
- Kitchen fitting — supplied kitchens from Howdens, IKEA, Wren and similar.
A recent job in Hedge End
A side gate between the house and a brick pier had rotted through at the bottom and lost a board on the latch side. Isaac built a new arched-top gate in pressure-treated timber, reused the original black T-hinges, and hung it back on the same wall. The full write-up, with before and after photos, is linked below.

The quickest route is the estimate form. A couple of photos and a rough idea of what you need is usually enough for Isaac to say whether it is a job for him, give you a ballpark, or arrange to come and look.
