Report
Sam at Macquarie Joinery is a master craftsman. I trusted Sam to build me a desktop table for my snooker table. The result could not have been more impressive. Visitors to my house always comment on how great it looks. I've known Sam for 10 years and i know the quality of his work. My father was a french polisher so i know quality when i see it. If you want old fashioned high-quality craftsmanship hire Sam and his team at Macquarie Joinery.

Report
Sam is a really dishonest person. I spent $1000s with him for custom woodwork and joinery and the workmanship was appalling. I showed him numerous mistakes and misalignments and he first blamed the weather, then blamed me, and lastly blamed my home. He then simply refused to answer the phone when he saw my number even though I was impossibly polite regarding these issues. I've now heard from nearby joinery businesses that he's know for doing shoddy work. I wish I knew that beforehand. I would say beware, but instead, just don't work with him, you will absolutely regret it.

I had a run in with the owner of this business today. All in all after my brief and unfortunate encounter with this miserable human being i would be inclined to say that this is not the type of person anybody would want to do business with. Shame on you Sam and you should re-think how you treat people. Apparently you taught me a lesson by parking me in today whilst my child screamed downstairs in his pram with my mother waiting whilst you pretended to be on a phone call in your office. You need to learn a lesson in being a 'gentleman'.
