About Us

Forest Joinery has been crafting bespoke joinery solutions for clients across the UK. With a passion for design and an eye for detail, we’ve grown from a small workshop into one of the most trusted names in the commercial fit-out industry.

Our Story

Our journey began nearly two decades ago when our director, Olly, started working out of a small workshop in Epping, creating bespoke residential joinery for the local community. His passion for joinery and commitment to high-quality craftsmanship quickly earned him a strong reputation. Word spread, and Forest Joinery became a trusted name in the area.

 

In 2021, Olly expanded the business by bringing in a team of talented joiners. Together, they secured their first commercial contract, which outgrew the original workshop. This led to the next milestone—moving into a larger unit to accommodate the increasing demand and new direction.

​

Since then, we’ve taken on numerous commercial contracts, built strong client relationships, and expanded our team. Our reputation within the industry reflects our dedication to delivering high-quality joinery, tailored to specifications and completed on time.

 

Over the years, we’ve refined our processes and honed our craft. Our team creates stunning, functional pieces, treating joinery as an art form. We approach each project—whether small residential work or large commercial contracts—with the same attention to detail and dedication, collaborating closely with clients to bring their visions to life.

 

Now operating from two units with nearly 20 staff, Forest Joinery continues to grow. We're committed to taking on new challenges and delivering exceptional joinery for every project.
