Very reliable and trustworthy. Excellent workmanship.
— Sheila F , Great Shelford
We have been using the excellent services of Charlie Dunn for very many years. He is our first choice of craftsperson for any carpentry or decorating job. He has fixed old rotting windows, lime-washed the exterior of the house, re-made a kitchen cupboard into a dishwasher housing and built a hen run, to name but a few of many and various jobs done for us! He always carries out the work with extreme professionalism, and is reliable and trustworthy - a pleasure to have around. His work is immaculate; he has very good ideas to solve problems and he is extremely courteous and tidy. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
— Hilary G , Great Chishill
Charlie is a conscientious professional. I have been using him for carpentary and decorating for many years. I always ask him back because I know he works efficiently and does a good job and is always tidy and respectful. It is handy that he can include some minor electrics and plumbing where necessary within the permitted legislation. Some neat patch plastering is also a bonus! I would recommend him as a personable tradesman to have in the house with excellent skills to do a job well at a reasonable price

Charlie has been making things for us, as well as painting, mending, advising for approaching 15 years. He has very high standards. Whether it be a made to measure wedding present of a full size corner cabinet which stands with of pride of place in our kitchen with all our glasses in it, or a kitchen work top being turned into a welsh dresser, making new cupboards for the arrival of a new baby - or painting the whole house, inside and out after a small fire created smoke damage across our whole property - Charlie is always neat, tidy and with workmanship that is first class. I might add that after our fire he was our knight in shining armour. He saw our plight, we had to move out, and worked tirelessly to get us back home. As he left he turned and said ‘maybe don’t light a candle next Christmas!’ It is also the little touches that make Charlie such a good person to be working in your house - when our youngest put a hole in a brand new desk he quickly created the most perfect fix. I wholeheartedly recommend Charlie for his many services

When we moved back to Cambridge in 2017 the house we bought needed some work and we engaged Charlie due mainly to the fact that he was already working at a neighbours house. Since then he has been our go-to-guy for subsequent decorating and carpentry work both at our home and our Cambridge office.

Charlie has done a number of jobs for us in the past, including building beautiful window seats (see Gallery). He is a delight to work with. Always full of ideas and prompt and efficient and the quality of his carpentry and decorating skills are both wonderful. I would highly recommend him for jobs big or small.

We asked for Charlie’s contact details after seeing the fantastic job he had done for some friends.   He duly came and did us a fantastic built in cupboard - so perfect it looks as though it is part of the original build.   We are so happy that he is going to be doing another job for us, and we have also recommended him to other people. Great workmanship, lovely man - a pleasure to have in one’s home.
— Jennifer W, Trumpington
Charlie has done work in my house and garden on several occasions.  It has always been done to a very high standard and I thoroughly recommend him.  He is an excellent carpenter, tiler and decorator and I already have plans for more work in the future.
