Our recent work.
Traditional Handcut Roof
This large L shape dormer roof was hand-made onsite, featuring nine small dormer windows. At one end the roof featured a hipped section incorporating two Velux windows, while the other south facing elevation had a balcony overlooking the beautiful Island countryside.
Oak Breakfront Library
The library was finished with a delicate graphite stain, which elegantly brought out the stunning oak grain pattern. This choice of stain added a touch of sophistication and depth to the overall aesthetic of the space. Additionally, the design of the library cleverly included two secret doors that seamlessly connected it to an adjacent room. These hidden passages added an element of intrigue and mystery to the library, creating a sense of adventure for those who explored it.

”John and Dan Boxall have provided design and construction work on a number of properties on the Isle of Wight. Both projects were major renovations of period properties that required both high levels of skill and the flexibility to integrate modern approaches and materials within a Grade 2 listed Environments.
John and Dan project managed the design work and construction work in a truly professional and collaborative manner. We felt like part of the team and enjoyed the experience. Our beautiful homes were created without the need of the traditional external architects or quantity surveyors which was a practical reflection of John and Dan's expertise and experience.
On most projects it is the work you cannot see that truly results in a quality outcome and on this dimension, we had the utmost trust in the team. The end results are truly stunning. After the major structural work, the internal fitout and repairs required bespoke made joinery that blended with, or in many instances, replicated the original joinery of the property, bringing the buildings back to their former glory.
A number of years on from the finish of the major building project, John and Dan are still our go-to team that are always ready and wiling to help us maintain our wonderful properties.
Overall excellent and we would not hesitate to commission them on any future projects. ”

"We are delighted with our exquisite custom-made Oak Roll Top Desk. It took us several months searching for a roll top desk that would perfectly fit in the designated area and accommodate all the office items we have gathered throughout the years. Additionally, it was crucial for the desk to accommodate modern electronics, including a printer, laptop, and iPad, among others. Most antique models are primarily designed for letters, paper, and pens, making it a challenge to find one that meets our specific requirements.
We are extremely satisfied with the outcome of our collaboration with John and Dan. With their assistance, we were able to meticulously specify every detail of the desk, including its size, shape, and configuration. Moreover, their expertise in designing drawer sizes and doors enabled us to customize the desk to accommodate our specific needs. The end result is a stunning piece of traditional hand-crafted furniture that fits seamlessly between our existing oak pieces, eliminating the need to rearrange our beloved furniture collection. The entire experience has been nothing short of a dream solution for us. Dan and John not only created a beautiful piece, but they also personally delivered and installed it, exceeding our expectations. We couldn't have asked for more!"
