Joinery Renovation Services in Edinburgh City Centre

At Johnstone Joinery & Building, we provide specialist joinery renovation services in Edinburgh City Centre, working on period properties, traditional tenements, townhouses and mixed-use buildings where experience and attention to detail are essential. Our work combines high-quality joinery with carefully managed renovation projects, helping you preserve character while bringing the property up to modern living standards.

City Centre properties often come with unique challenges — restricted access, shared stairwells, structural constraints and planning requirements. Our team is used to working within these conditions, delivering joinery-led renovations that are practical, compliant and finished to a consistently high standard.

Specialist joinery renovation work

We deliver both standalone joinery projects and joinery as part of wider renovations, including:

• Bespoke joinery and custom carpentry for period interiors
• Internal reconfiguration and layout improvements
• Cornice repair and reinstatement
• Original flooring restoration and replacement
• Custom cabinetry, shelving and fitted storage
• Staircase repairs and joinery upgrades
• Timber window repairs and internal detailing

If you’re planning a larger renovation, we also deliver flat renovations and full property refurbishments across Edinburgh.

Structural alterations and coordinated renovation

Joinery renovation projects in Edinburgh City Centre often involve changes to layout and structure. We regularly carry out structural alterations and wall removals to create improved flow and open-plan living, working with structural engineers where required.

We coordinate associated trades — including electrical, plumbing and heating — to keep the project moving and ensure the finishing stage is clean, consistent and well executed.

Period property experience in the City Centre

Much of our City Centre work involves Georgian and Victorian buildings, where the right approach is a balance of restoration and modernisation. Our joinery renovation services are designed to retain architectural character while improving functionality, comfort and usability.

We regularly work throughout Edinburgh City Centre, and can advise on the practicalities of access, scheduling, neighbour considerations and compliance from the outset.

A managed, start-to-finish service

From initial consultation through to final finishing, we provide a structured renovation process. We collaborate with architects, structural engineers and Edinburgh City Council to support building warrant requirements and ensure the work is carried out properly.
