## The Person Who Quotes Your JobIs the Person Who Builds It

CV Carpentry &amp; Construction is a Cambridge-based carpentry and building firm founded by Charlie Vidler: an NVQ Level 2 qualified carpenter who came into the trade through an apprenticeship, with 5+ years&#x27; experience on the tools and two years&#x27; experience running the firm.

The work covers all first and second fix carpentry, brickwork, bathroom installations, and everything up to extensions and full house renovations. Where a job needs a specialist, Charlie brings in one from a small circle of trusted, qualified tradesmen: a Gas Safe registered engineer for bathroom plumbing, and an established roofing firm with more than 30 years&#x27; experience.

Every job is quoted at a fixed price with a free site visit, backed by a workmanship guarantee and up to £5 million public liability cover, and a 5.0 Google rating earned one tidy, on-time job at a time.

04Why CV

## Why Homeowners Across Cambridge Call Charlie

01

### One Fixed Price
The price we quote is the price you pay. No creeping extras, no awkward surprises at the end of the job.

02

### One Point of Contact
You deal with Charlie from the first site visit to the final walkthrough. Nothing gets lost between a salesman and a subbie you&#x27;ve never met.

03

### The Right Specialist, Every Time
Bathroom plumbing goes to a Gas Safe registered engineer. Roofing goes to a firm with 30+ years behind it. You get the right tradesman for each part of the job, not one man bluffing his way through all of it.

04

### Respect for Your Home
Punctual, tidy and respectful of your property, those words come from our reviews, not from us.

05How It Works

## From First Visit to Final Walkthrough
Five stages, the same every time, so you always know what happens next and who is responsible for it.

Survey: every job starts with Charlie on site, tape in hand.

- Step 01

### Free Site Visit
Charlie visits, listens, measures up and talks you through the options. It costs you nothing and obliges you to nothing.

Survey: every job starts with Charlie on site, tape in hand.
- Step 02

### Fixed-Price Quote
You get one clear, fixed price for the whole job, with the specification written down. Take your time over it: no pressure, no follow-up pestering.

Design: the specification is agreed before a single board is cut.
- Step 03

### Scheduled &amp; Built
Work starts when we say it will. Larger jobs are paid in stages: typically a 25% deposit, milestone payments, and the balance on completion.

The work: qualified tradesmen, tidy site, agreed dates.
- Step 04

### Walkthrough &amp; Snag
Before we call a job done we walk it with you and put right anything you are not happy with, rather than leaving you to chase it later.

Inspect: joints, lines and finishes checked with you present.
- Step 05

### Guaranteed Finish
Every job leaves with our workmanship guarantee and a clean, tidy site. Terms vary by job type: just ask when we quote.

Complete: handed back clean, guaranteed and finished properly.

Looking for a carpenter in Cambridge you can actually rely on? CV Carpentry &amp; Construction provides the full range of carpentry and construction services to domestic clients across Cambridge, Cambridgeshire and the Fens. That covers all first and second fix carpentry: from door hanging, skirting and architrave to bespoke fitted furniture: alongside bathroom fitting, brickwork, decking, fencing and handyman services for the smaller jobs other firms turn away.

For bigger projects, we manage extensions and home renovations across Cambridgeshire from start to finish, bringing in a structural engineer and quantity surveyor where the job calls for them, and handling planning permission and building control on your behalf if you&#x27;d rather not deal with it yourself. However large or small the job, it starts the same way: a free site visit and one fixed-price quote.
