John Argyle is the owner of Enfield Refurbishments, trading since 2012.
John currently has one apprentice called Lisa, and they mainly work in carpentry and joinery on older properties. John’s love for woodworking started when he was just 6 years old, visiting his grandparents for Sunday lunch.
“My Grandad was a chippy and used to tinker about in his workshop, making hand tools in those days when you didn’t buy them off the shelf. You used to make them and I found it interesting.”
At 16, John found an advert in the newspaper and applied for a Young Apprentice Carpenter position; John’s first official entry into the woodworking industry. This ignited an interest around where timber comes from and how it is prepared;
“it’s a passion for oak that I’ve never been able to lose.”See Below Johns Favourite Festool Products
