About HC Carpentry

A South Wales carpentry team building homes, extensions and developments.

HC Carpentry & Framing Ltd is a Port Talbot based carpentry and timber-framing company run by Liam Harris and Marco Clement. We work across South and West Wales delivering full structural carpentry packages — from single house extensions to multi-plot housing developments.

Our team has built complete timber-framed developments including the six houses currently under way at New Quay, the Greenway housing scheme of three houses and a block of flats, the Rhos new build in Neath and a full Airbnb conversion across two floors. We handle the frame, floors, partitions, cut roofs and external sheathing in-house.

Alongside structural work we install bespoke joinery — fitted kitchens, wardrobes, staircases and storage — finished to the same standard as our framing.
