ABOUT

Houghtons of York are a well established family run business with a wealth of experience specialising in high quality architectural joinery and woodcarving for clients throughout the UK (and occasionally further afield).


Handmade Using Traditional Techniques.

With workshops based at Dunnington on the outskirts of the historic city of York we directly employ a team of exceptionally skilled Joiners and Woodcarvers that use traditional methods and materials to produce a diverse range of high quality bespoke commissioned work.​

With strong links to other specialist businesses we frequently manage multi disciplinary projects incorporating crafts such as blacksmiths, glazing & stained glass, polishers, gilders & signwriters etc....

Our Core Values.

Key to everything we do as a company are our values;
​​
  • We are Passionate about our customers.
  • We act with Integrity.
  • We provide a Quality service.
  • We Share responsibility for ourselves and those we work with.
  • We act as a Team.
  • It’s a Great place to work.

These were decided upon in 2014 during a company wide meeting where the workforce as a whole were asked what they value most about the company.
