Company Information
and Profile

We at N.K. Joinery Ltd. are an experienced local family run business formed in 1980. Originally formed as carpentry and joinery specialists, we quickly evolved into general building and alterations. Just a few of our past and present clients include The Isle Of Man Department Of Education, Dept of Local Government and the Environment, DHSS, Douglas Corporation, The Church and of course the general public.

During the 29+ years our company has been operating, we have carried out many of the various elements required in the building industry. We have recently completed internal works comprising the replacement of bathrooms and kitchens, re-wiring, plumbing works, decoration and other various building items at The Bretney Estate, Jurby, Phase 4, for The Isle of Man Government Department of Local Government and the Environment. This followed on from Phase 3 which was external works comprising of replacement fascia and rainwater goods, render repairs, undergrounding of electricity and telecom supplies, dashing and external decoration, a contract that was completed on time and on budget. The Bretney Estate comprises 64 no. properties. Phase 3 was a 60 week contract and Phase 4 was a 92 week contract. The two contracts ran concurrently and proved very successful. We are also now undertaking Phase 5 Environmental Improvement works at the same estate.

We have also recently completed two contracts for the DHSS, these being the new Palatine GP Surgery and a new Rehabilitation and Treatment Centre. Both of these contracts were completed on time in March 2009 and April 2009 respectively.

In keeping with the ever changing needs of the public and private sectors, a uPVC division was formed in 2002, offering first class materials from Sheerframe uPVC windows, doors, conservatories and curtain walling, to Celuform uPVC fascia bargeboards and soffits in a range of colours. We are also now the only Approved Contractor on the island for ARP Mustang Continuous Aluminium Guttering. This is the only BBA Approved continuous aluminium guttering system available.

In 2008 we purchased the name, assets and goodwill of Curphey Brothers (Builders), a well known, long established local construction company, due to the retirement of its Principal Mr Stuart Curphey. We believe that the acquisition of Curphey Brothers (Builders) has further expanded our expertise within the various elements of the Construction Industry and allowed us to offer an improved service to our many varied Clients both existing and future, by combining the various areas of expertise within both of our companies.

We have also been awarded IS09001 for Quality Control and OHSAS18001 for Health and Safety. Our Contracts Director has also completed the NEBOSH Construction Certificate for Health and Safety and is a member of 10SH.
