Areas we cover around Perth and Perthshire

The workshop is in Bankfoot, on the old A9 between Perth and Dunkeld. Craig has customers from Perth and right across Perthshire.

Customers have come from Forgandenny, south of Perth, and from Birnam, just over the Tay from Dunkeld. Others come from the Fair City itself, from Blairgowrie, Pitlochry and Crieff, and from the villages round about.

If you’re further afield, text Craig a photo anyway and ask. For chair seats in particular, distance is worth a conversation.

Big Tree Country

Up the road at Dunkeld and Birnam stand the Birnam Oak and the Parent Larch, planted in 1738. Perthshire has always been timber country.

Perth cabinet makers worked in laburnum, which they called “Scotch walnut”, and the collection at Blair Castle is one of the best in Scotland. That is the tradition the furniture in this part of the world comes from.

Text him a photo of it. A whole-piece shot and a close-up of the damage is plenty to start with.
