Get in touch with our Essex team today. We’ll talk you through your major redesigns and how our masons can maintain heritage properties in style. At Nightingale, we believe in long term relationships and ensuring that you have the best experience with your heritage joinery installation or bespoke staircase.
Nightingale is more than just an installation team. We’re a team of artisans, apprenticing others and creating bespoke furniture for future generations.
After starting working together in 2007, Paul and Deirdre made a commitment to joinery with a skilled team of select joiners led by their workshop manager Vic, who has over 40 years experience. They had a simple goal: to create bespoke joinery for domestic and commercial markets.
Soon after Nightingale’s inception came the economic downturn of 2008. Despite this setback, Nightingale retained their standard of quality and good name. The team now consists of dedicated and highly skilled joiners, focused on total customer satisfaction. During this time our client base expanded to include renowned international companies and the parliamentary estates.
After more than 15 years together, we have a well-established and solid workforce with a keen eye on the future including bringing in apprentices to invest in the future of our craft. We work side by side with the country’s leading architects and internationally renowned designers to create fully bespoke and tailored joinery.

Paul and the team did a fantastic job restoring our staircase. We were missing half of our original staircase and after contacting a lot of companies, we were met with rejection or just an offer to replace the whole staircase. Nightingale, however, were up for the restoration and did a fantastic job in remaking our bottom 5 steps from scratch and matching the detailing that the rest of the staircase had. They did a fantastic job, and I couldn't recommend them enough. 5*.

Just a note to express my gratitude on the efforts applied to deliver this project. I’ve received some feedback from the sites lab director, who was very pleased with the installation.
Thank you both for the brilliant job you did for us. Much appreciated!

Paul and his team are first-class! we replaced a very tired staircase with a really smart oak and glass stair which looks absolutely perfect. Highly recommended and thanks for your service.

Nightingale has helped us with the refurbishment of a Victorian staircase. The attention to detail and technical skill employed in completing this was second to none, and the result achieved is amazing. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
