About Andrew Smith Carpenter, Buckhurst Hill

Welcome to Andrew Smith, Carpenter (formerly known as Smudge Creation).

My name is Andrew Smith and I have been interested in carpentry, designing and creating bespoke furniture and working with wood since I was a very young child. One of my earliest memories is of a toolbox received one Christmas from my Grandfather with ‘Handy Andy’ stencilled on the side.

I qualified for my City & Guilds in carpentry in 1990 and also did a City & Guilds in interior design in 2000. I worked making radiator covers and joinery for my family's firm until 2003 when I became self employed. I joined the Guild of Master Craftsmen in 2008.

I’d like to think that I specialise in fitted furniture and storage solutions such as wardrobes, alcove shelving, cupboards as well as bespoke furniture. Please look at the photos on my website and if you can't see anything resembling the idea you have in mind, then please contact me and I'm sure we'll be able to work together and succeed at creating your imagined item to your exact specification.

I also carry out all other kinds of carpentry work such as door hanging, decks, flooring, skirtings etc.

If it’s wood, anything’s possible!

Thanks,
Andrew Smith.

I can create the following:

  • Radiator Covers
  • Bespoke Study furniture
  • Bookcases
  • Alcove Shelving (with or without floating shelves)
  • Bedroom furniture
  • Bespoke furniture
  • One-off items to your design and specifications

I offer free quotes and estimates. Please visit my website for further information on how I can help you.

Please contact me today to discuss your requirements or for free friendly, professional and helpful advice. I look forward to hearing from you.

Please mention Trustatrader when calling. Thank you.

    Louise - Image 1 "Andy came highly recommended from a friend of mine and I can truly say I am so grateful for the recommendation! Andy has done an amazing job on some alcove units (pictured) and also a wardrobe for the master bedroom. Andy gave some great design advice such as carrying the picture rail around the trim. I absolutely love it! Andy is polite, honest and very kind. Look forward to having Andy back for some more wardrobes and storage units for the rest of the house!"

    "We are very pleased with our utility room refit. Andy created built in storage in our utility room, carefully considering the space and customising the internal fittings to suit our requirements. His work is extremely neat and precise ensuring a very high quality finish. I would highly recommend Andy."
