About Us

what we’ve dedicated our lives to.

We’re Matthew and Jamie Parkinson, two brothers based in Windermere with over 48 years of combined experience in the building and renovation industry.

Two brothers. One trusted family-run team.

Both of us started in the trade straight from leaving school, and after each running our own successful businesses for 10 years, we decided to combine our experience and strengths to create MP Joinery & Property Services.

For the last decade, we’ve worked side by side to give our customers a reliable, professional and friendly service built on trust, craftsmanship and attention to detail.

As a family-run business, we believe good communication, honest advice and high standards are what set us apart. Our goal is simple — to deliver quality work our customers are proud of and a service they feel confident recommending.
