Site & Domestic
Site Joinery & Domestic Specialists
L & R Joinery is more than a domestic joinery company. We deliver complete site joinery packages, from first fix structural carpentry through to second fix finishing, on new builds, extensions, renovations, and commercial projects across Derby and the East Midlands.
Whether you're a developer managing a multi-plot site, a main contractor looking for a reliable carpentry subcontractor, or a homeowner managing your own build, we bring the same level of skill, reliability, and attention to detail to every project.
With one team covering both first and second fix, you get consistent quality, a single point of contact, and a joinery package that runs to programme from start to finish.

First Fix
First Fix Carpentry
The structural backbone of every build: stud walls, floor joists, roof construction, and everything in between.
Our first fix team handles all structural carpentry on site. From laying floor joists and erecting stud wall partitions to cutting and assembling roofs, we deliver the structural framework that everything else is built upon. Every element is built square, plumb, and to specification, ready for following trades.
Stud Walls
Timber and metal stud wall partitions built square, plumb, and ready for boarding.
Floor Joists
Engineered and solid timber joist systems installed to structural specification.
Roof Construction
Hand cut roofs and truss installation, from simple gables to complex hipped designs.
Structural Framing
Complete structural carpentry for new builds, extensions, and conversions.
Dry Lining
Battening, noggins, and preparation for plasterboarding and insulation.
Site Coordination
Working to programme alongside other trades and main contractors.

Second Fix
Second Fix Carpentry
The finishing touches that transform a building site into a finished home.
Second fix is where our attention to detail really shows. Skirting boards with tight mitres, doors hung with even gaps, architrave that frames every opening perfectly, and bespoke wall panelling that adds character and style. We take pride in delivering a finish that's ready for decoration, no snagging required.
Door Hanging
Internal and external doors hung with precision: even gaps and smooth operation.
Skirting & Architrave
All profiles supplied and fitted with tight mitres and clean joints.
Wall Panelling
Shaker, tongue-and-groove, geometric, and contemporary slatted designs.
