Project Overview – Carpentry & Joinery by M&A Carpentry Contractors

At M&A Carpentry Contractors, we are committed to delivering high-quality carpentry services that combine strength, precision, and fine detailing. Our recent work at Josephs Way in New Romney, a housing development by Akehurst Homes, is a perfect example of our ability to provide complete carpentry packages from start to finish.

Josephs Way is a thoughtfully designed residential scheme offering a mix of modern homes built to stand the test of time. Appointed by Akehurst Homes, we carried out the full range of carpentry works – from the early structural elements through to the final finishing touches. This project gave us the opportunity to showcase our versatility, blending traditional techniques with modern construction methods to create high-quality homes ready for occupation.

Scope of Works

Our involvement at Josephs Way covered every stage of the carpentry process, ensuring that each property was built to the highest standard. The works undertaken included:

  • Joists – Expertly installed to provide solid and level flooring structures throughout.
  • Truss Roofing – Accurate assembly and installation of prefabricated trusses for strong, weather-resistant roofs.
  • Cut & Pitch Roofing – Hand-crafted roofing solutions for areas requiring bespoke carpentry work.
  • Fascia & Soffits – Installed for both functional weather protection and a neat, attractive roofline.
  • Cladding – High-quality external timber cladding fitted to enhance the homes’ appearance and durability.
  • Stairs – Bespoke staircase installations ensuring safety, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
  • 1st Fix Carpentry – Frameworks, door linings, and other essential elements completed with accuracy.
  • 2nd Fix Carpentry – Doors, skirting boards, architraves, and other fine joinery installed for a polished finish.
  • Bespoke Joinery – Custom-made carpentry features tailored to the unique style of Josephs Way homes.

Craftsmanship & Quality Control

The Josephs Way development required a high level of finish to match Akehurst Homes’ reputation for building quality properties. From the precision of our roofing work to the fine details of bespoke joinery, every task was carried out with careful planning and skilled execution.

We applied rigorous quality control at every stage, ensuring structural integrity, durability, and a consistent finish across all homes. Our team also worked proactively with site managers to resolve challenges quickly and keep the build programme on track.

Collaboration with Akehurst Homes

Partnership was key to the success of this project. By working closely with Akehurst Homes’ project team, we ensured that our carpentry work aligned seamlessly with the overall build programme and design vision.

Regular site meetings, clear communication, and a flexible approach allowed us to adapt to evolving site requirements without compromising on quality or deadlines. This collaborative working relationship meant the finished homes met both aesthetic aspirations and practical expectations.

Adding Value Through Complete Service Delivery

By providing the full carpentry package, we offered Akehurst Homes a streamlined and efficient service, removing the need to coordinate multiple subcontractors for different carpentry elements. This all-in-one approach ensured consistency of quality and style across the development.

Our ability to deliver both the structural and decorative aspects of carpentry meant we could contribute to the project’s success at every stage – from laying the foundations of the build’s structure to installing the final joinery pieces that define the look and feel of each home.

Project Outcome

The finished Josephs Way development now features a range of well-constructed homes, each benefiting from high-quality carpentry work that is built to last. The combination of robust structural elements, attractive finishes, and bespoke detailing has helped create properties that will serve their new owners for many years to come.

This project highlights M&A Carpentry Contractors’ commitment to:

  • Quality workmanship at every stage.
  • Collaborative working with clients and other trades.
  • Efficiency in delivering large-scale packages without compromising on detail.

Our work at Josephs Way in New Romney demonstrates M&A Carpentry Contractors’ ability to take on full residential carpentry packages and deliver them to the highest standards. From the first joist to the last piece of bespoke joinery, our team applied the same care, precision, and dedication throughout.

We are proud to have worked with Akehurst Homes to bring this development to life – creating durable, attractive homes that reflect the quality and craftsmanship at the heart of everything we do.
