Joinery in Cockermouth

Raymond Paterson Joinery in Cockermouth, Cumbria uses traditional joinery skills to create high quality bespoke furniture and fixtures that not only look beautiful but are built to stand the test of time. Applying modern quality standards to period style work and renovation taking conceptual ideas and turning them into delivered, high quality solutions. Using traditional joinery skills which have become somewhat lost over the years.

My portfolio includes bespoke oak windows and doors, fielded staircase paneling and timber summer houses. Sash window renovation is also extremely popular, as customers are often amazed to discover what can be achieved with the correct knowledge and use of modern-day draft stripping.

As well as new products, restoration work is another service I am able to offer. Working mostly in period properties over the years I have gained a wealth of knowledge that enables me to view each project in its own merit which helps me make sympathetic choices in the planning process, keeping the property as close to its original form as possible.

Joinery Services

Offering a broad spectrum of joinery services in Cockermouth and surrounding areas. My customers generally pay me a visit at the Brigham Joinery workshop, and I interpret their ideas and help design their projects.

Over the past decade, I have tended to concentrate more on manufacturing bespoke furnishing and fitments rather than new building site joinery.

I also manufacture for other Joinery contractors, mostly doors and windows that are non-standard sizes and not accessible from stock catalogues. With sliding sash windows being my specialty. Over the last ten years I have been proactive in researching all the different draft proofing products available for timber windows.

Experimenting with various draft stripping methods to find the best and incorporating them into my window assemblies. Thus, offering traditional joinery methods with modern energy saving additions.

My joinery workshop is fully equipped to deal with almost any project. Varying from lathe work to running obscure timber molds, straight or curved. I have over the years collated many different tooling profiles and are able to run off large or small quantities needed to complete your project.

If it’s made from wood, I’ll be able to help, with either my services or simply advice… for more details please call me on 07760278021

Handmade Furniture & Decor

A collection of designs inspired by the use of old timbers that have weathered the storms of time and have created their own unique characteristics and features.

Or items I have sourced from natures pantry, such as woodland floors and hedgerows. Pieces that allow me to design and remould into furniture and fitments to last another lifetime.

“Raymond Paterson Designs” formally Raymond Paterson Joinery is now in its 22nd year of trading. With over 35 years of Joinery manufacturing experience. 

I’m really feeling a great sense of satisfaction using these old reclaimed timbers, rather than the cut to order timbers I have generally worked with. In an age where sustainability is at the forefront of everyone’s mind, it feels nice to be able to pick things up from the ground and use the traditional joinery skills I was taught to bring them back to life; this is very rewarding.
