Really impressed with the service we received. We use SGH for all our home improvements. They refurbished our home very promptly and efficiently after bad flooding. They kept in contact with us throughout and always replied to any queries promptly. Definitely recommend!

We somehow ended up buying a plot of land with planning permission and the realisation then hits about what you do next when you have zero experience of building or renovating anything.
We struck gold though getting SGH and Stuart on board – they managed the whole process fantastically and delivered a wonderful home on time and on budget (avoiding what you see so many people facing on Grand Designs!).
Stuart, his team and his contractors work was all of the highest quality and carried out in such a friendly and professional manner.
You can see our finished home in the video on SGH’s facebook post of 28 May and also on their website – it is stunning and having lived in it for a year now we are still as happy with it as the day we moved in - we can’t thank SGH enough.
If you are looking to get work done whether it is a new build like ours or a smaller project you won’t make a better decision than getting SGH and Stuart to do it for you!

We had a small extension put on the back of the house and some internal works carried out. Stuart and his team did a fantastic job, delivering the project on time (even with a slightly extended scope) and to a high standard.
We were keen that our neighbours experienced as little disruption as possible throughout the build and this expectation was more than met. The team were punctual, reliable, incredibly hardworking and friendly even passing the time with the kids when they came home from school and/or were playing in the gardens next to the house.
The team were impressively tidy. Everyone coming to the house during the build commented on the cleaniness of the site, the team made sure to tidy everything away at the end of each day and at the end of the job they left our garden in better shape than before the work began!
In terms of communication and customer service, we were delighted. We were kept up to date with what was happening with the project without having to worry about who was arriving when, and whether things were ready for the next trade to arrive. Stuart dealt with all of that, it there never seemed to be any issues. On the one day someone couldn't attend due to illness, we were informed before 9am which was brillant as you knew exactly what was going on.
Stuart also ensured that any minor issues were rectified promptly and without any stress for us, for example the cooker hood didn't work correctly. Stuart arranged for the supplier to attend, provide a replacement and then came back to ensure the finish around the hood was to the right standard.
And if all that wasn't enough, their price was nowhere near the highest quote we received for this work. Very good value for money.
Finally, I was worried living in the house with 3 kids whilst getting work done and working myself would be really stressful, but actually it wasn't. The team made it seem easy. We've got some further work planned for the future and they will definately be top of our list for that - I can't recommend them enough.

SGH Joinery have just completed our new kitchen extension. Getting Stuart and his team to do it for us was one of the best decisions we have made. From start to finish they have done an excellent job which turned out to be far better than expected. The quality of workmanship was second to none. Getting Stuart to supply all trades was the best way for us. We would have no hesitation in recommending SGH Joinery to anyone. Been a pleasure to have them doing this job for us.Many thanks.

Rear Extension
Over the moon with our build from SGH.
We felt comfortable with Stuart's attitude from the start, keeping us informed when we needed to be and cracked on when we didn't. His team were like clockwork, one trade finished and the next stepped in straight away. Stuart said the build would take 6 to 8 weeks and it was delivered bang on that timing.
Our 16m2 family room has changed the way we use the home and it was only completed 3 weeks ago.
We honestly cannot thank the SGH team enough!

SGH Joinery recently carried out a garage conversion for us and we were exceptionally happy with the service provided and the end result. Stuart came highly recommended to us by our architect and came out promptly to provide a consultation and quote. Throughout the building process, we were always kept informed and Stuart and all his team were friendly, professional and considerate, and always left the house pristine when they left at the end of the day. All the work was carried out to an extremely high standard by talented joiners, who went the extra mile with finishings, and Stuart also arranged a plumber and painter and decorator for us, whose work we were also really happy with. It was never a problem to contact Stuart with any questions we had and it was an entirely positive experience for us. Would highly recommend.

We are very happy with the deck with glass panels that SHG built for us. Stuart visited prompty, discussed the job and gave us a quote. The work was soon carried out to a high standard with all debris removed. The completed deck looks great and we thank SGH for their proffesionalism and efficiency in carrying out the work.

We would highly recommend Stuart Hill of SGH Joinery to our family, friends and neighbours. This was a fairly large project as we were more than doubling the size of our house by 4 ground extensions and a roof replacement with additional windows and bedrooms.
When we initially met Stuart he impressed us from the very start. He was extremely professional and he asked lots of questions and he also highlighted possible issues that could arise during the extension. Stuart also consulted the architect regarding issues with drawings and seeing conflicting information re civil engineers and architectural drawings. Just as our project started we had long delays due to lock down caused by Covid 19. Stuart kept in touch and provided regular updates throughout and as soon as lock-downs ended SGH were back. When they removed the roof of our house the new roof was immediately started. All the joiners involved kept excellent timekeeping they worked hard even in heavy rain. All the staff were very tidy and always cleaned up at the end of the day.
We have lived in our house during all this work we found all the joinery staff very polite helpful and considerate. Anytime there was an issue it was discussed with us and Stuart provided extremely good advice regarding and providing us with options including costs of extra work etc.
There have been issues regarding shortage of materials due to Covid 19 and there have been delays regarding windows, doors etc which delayed some of their work. Stuart was often able to source materials from elsewhere and there no time was wasted. Stuart also recommended other businesses to us from scaffolding, roofers to builders and we must add they were all excellent too all having the same work ethic as Stuart.
We would highly recommend SGH Joinery due to their professionalism their ability to work with other professionals willingness to listen and their standard of work and finishes was excellent. Check SGH Joinery website for quality of work.

Stuart, (SGH), carried out two major projects for us, at our house at St Cyrus. The installation of a new staircase to the attic, creation of two new rooms, including toilet and washing facilities, then insulating and plaster boarding the rest of the large attic.
All the work carried out by SGH, and their subcontractors, was completed to a high standard and we are very happy with the all work done, the advice given, and the price quoted. The work was completed tidily, within the agreed timescale, and to the satisfaction of the supervising architect and Building Control.

SGH Joinery are undoubtedly one of the best high quality firms in Scotland. They built a ramp and decking with glazed panels and their work has been admired by neighbours and passers by. Can highly recommend.

I called Stuart to come and give me a quote for a full refurbishment of a house I was buying . The house was well and truly stuck in the 70's and had multiple layers of wallpaper.With kitchen and bathroom units that had been fitted in the 70's .
Stuart arrived on time as booked. ( unlike other tradesmen I asked to quote ) provided a prompt quote ( unlike others ) and full estimate that was reasonable and appropriate for the work required. I was able to discuss any changes on the quote with Stuart easily and found Stuart very professional and extremely thorough - compared to the firms I have dealt with both here in Angus and down in Lancashire where I invest in buy to lets.
Whilst the project fell through due to a serious defect in the extension to the house that had no paperwork attached to it, I would highly recommend Stuart for his promptness , professional approach and willingness to work with clients . This, to me is a vital component when working with firms like SGH Joinery . Further, due to Covid 19 I was unable to view any other clients Stuart had done work for, but SGH joinery Facebook page outlines and photos much of the work the company carries out. So one is able to view the completed work and see the high standard achieved.
I would have no hesitation in recommending SGH Joinery - despite having to cancel due to the many conveyancing issues that arose, I am looking at my next investor project and new to the Angus area will have no hesitation to contact Stuart again.

SGH joinery constructed a porch for us including all trades from start to finish. Stuart and his team made an excellent job and were extremely helpful when I decided to change the doors from original plan. Absolutely delighted with the finished product, would highly recommend.
