Manus Joinery

I needed an alteration to some fitted office furniture, and I was worried that the work would leave some untidy and unsightly edges. I had doubts whether I would be able to find someone with the right skill who was willing to take on a relatively small job. Iain had done some kitchen-fitting for my son, who recommended him strongly. Iain did a fabulous job - the work is so neat that it might be part of the original installation.
He came when he said he would, did the work, tidied up, and said he would come back if there were any "post-operative" issues.
I cannot praise him enough.

Iain came to our house to lay flooring in the living room , dining room hall and kitchen. He also installed new skirtings and architraves. Iain was on time, and very hard working . He exceeded our expectations and we are delighted with the work. Will definitely be asking him back for other works to be done . 10/10.

Iain carried out great work on our front door, we’re really happy with the result. Highly recommended and we’ll definitely use Iain again for any joinery jobs.

I asked Iain to build some custom floating shelving for my office. I also asked him to finish off a couple of tricky jobs I had left over in my refurbishment.

* make a wood surround for my hearth tiles
* install a floating oak mantlepiece
* install a sliding door and making a pelmet
* install a clothes drier in a not particularly solid ceiling

Iain was happy to work with my ideas and suggest practical solutions. His work was of a high quality. He worked quickly and cleanly, was professional in all dealings and seemed a really nice bloke to boot.

No hesitation in recommending him!

Ian Mannus built window seats, a bar, a pew, a fitted cupboard and a secret door for me at The Watchman Hotel in Gullane.
I rate Ian as 10/10 for his professionalism and skill sets as a carpenter and is the most efficient and organised contractor I have ever engaged.
His grasp of the technical details of each undertaking is immediate and comprehensive and his attention to detail is exacting.
I could not be more satisfied with Ian and his work.

Ian was very punctual and did everything he said he would. He was very helpful in organising materials. Completed the job on time and happily came back when I wanted to make a change. Ian was professional and polite at all times and I wouldn' t hesitate to use him again or recommend him.

Iain has worked for us on a range of projects - both large and small - over the past 6+ years. He is a first rate joiner and his shopfitting experience has been very useful when addressing tricky challenges. Iain’s network of other trades also allows him to take on projects that require a team - which he managed very well. We wouldn’t place any suitable work - repairs or new build - with anyone else.

IF your looking for a Reliable and Competent Joiner Iain Manus is your
Man.

We used Iain’s services on two occasions. First to dismantle an existing kitchen so that extensive damp-proofing could be undertaken and then on a subsequent occasion to reassemble the kitchen as it had been before. On both occasions Iain accommodated our requests at fairly short notice, did an excellent, neat job and at a reasonable price. Good communications; pleasant, reliable and courteous service. Highly recommend, and would use again. A+++

Mr Manus removed old, leaking windows and replaced them with new. The work was excellent and I would not hesitate in either using Mr Manus again or recommending Mr Manus to others. Indeed, Mr Manus was recommended to me by another Trusted Trader.

Ian is an efficient and organised worker. I’ve used him a number of times on an old tricky flat - where he had to solve surprise issues on the fly (due to odd construction in the existing walls/floors etc.) as the job exposed them.
His work has been just what I was hoping for, and I’ll keep using him!

Iain has build a bin shed, a Gazebo, some flower planters, and is about to make a kitchen island. He is exceptional.

I’ve worked with Iain a number of times now and he’s always been super reliable and professional, I’d recommend him to anyone.
