G F De Gruchy

About us

Heritage craftsmanship from the heart of St Mary

G F De Gruchy is a carpentry and joinery business rooted in St Mary, in the quiet north-west of Jersey. Our work is grounded in the traditional skills of the trade — hand-cut joints, properly seasoned timber and careful setting out — the same methods that have kept the island's granite farmhouses standing for centuries.

We make and install architectural joinery, hardwood windows and doors, and bespoke roof and floor frames, and we restore period woodwork with the respect it deserves. Whether it's a single sash window or a full oak roof structure, every piece is measured precisely and fitted to the true shape of the building.

Customers across St Mary, St Ouen, St John and the wider Channel Islands rely on us because we turn up when we say we will, keep you informed, and leave a tidy site. Most of our work comes from neighbours recommending us — and that is the reputation we work to keep.

Precision

Every opening and frame is surveyed and scribed by hand — essential in old Jersey granite properties where nothing is quite square.

Reliability

We give a start date and keep it. You'll have one point of contact from first sketch to final polish.

Island-based

Based in St Mary, we know local buildings, local suppliers and the weather our timber has to stand up to.
