WHERE WE CAME FROM

Will Woolley – Owner

My passion for woodworking began long before Brooks Joinery was established. As the son of a cabinet maker, I grew up surrounded by timber, tools and traditional craftsmanship. Helping my father in the workshop taught me the importance of precision, patience and attention to detail from an early age.

Simple projects such as building a toolbox or restoring an old school desk sparked a fascination with creating something solid, accurate and built to last — values that still define the business today.

In 2002, I began my apprenticeship with a local joinery manufacturer, completing NVQ Levels 2 and 3 with two distinctions, one credit, and receiving the James Heapy Award for Apprentice of the Year at Stockport College. Those formative years established the technical foundations and high standards that continue to shape every project we undertake.

In 2008, I established my first workshop in Monyash. What began as a small workshop quickly grew through word of mouth, repeat customers and a commitment to quality craftsmanship.

As demand increased, Brooks Joinery relocated to larger premises in Whaley Bridge in 2016, allowing us to invest in modern manufacturing equipment while remaining true to the traditional skills that define our work today.

LISTED BUILDINGS & HERITAGE EXPERTISE

Heritage joinery requires more than technical skill — it demands respect for traditional craftsmanship and an understanding of historic architecture.

Over many years we've developed strong working relationships with architects, conservation officers and heritage specialists, enabling us to deliver bespoke joinery that complements historic buildings while meeting modern performance standards.

Our heritage expertise includes:

Matching original mouldings and profiles
Conservation-grade replacements
Listed building repairs
Heritage windows and doors
Working within conservation and planning requirements
Joinery that satisfies both clients and conservation authorities

Preserving the character of traditional buildings is something we're genuinely passionate about.

SPRAY FINISHING

From our dedicated spray room, we provide a professional in-house spray finishing service for our bespoke joinery, giving us complete control over the quality and consistency of every finished piece. Each item is carefully prepared before being sprayed to achieve a smooth, even and durable finish that complements the craftsmanship of the joinery itself. With a wide choice of colours and finishes available, we can tailor the final appearance to suit your project, whether you’re looking for a subtle, understated finish or something more distinctive. By carrying out the entire finishing process in-house, we can maintain our attention to detail at every stage, from initial manufacture and preparation through to the final finished piece.

Finishes tailored to your project

From contemporary painted finishes to more traditional colour schemes, our spray finishing can be tailored to suit the style and requirements of each project. We can work with a wide range of colours and sheen levels, helping ensure the finished joinery sits perfectly within its surroundings.

WIDE CHOICE OF COLOURS

Finishes selected to complement your interior, existing décor or project specification.

QUALITY PREPARATION

Careful preparation helps achieve a smooth, consistent and professional finish.
