Welcome to Killinthomas Timberworks, a family-run business born from a lifelong passion for woodworking and a deep connection to the beautiful Killinthomas Woods in Rathangan, Co. Kildare. I’m Joe, the heart behind this venture, raised amidst these very woods that inspire our craft. Together with my wife Claudia, who brings the vibrant spirit of Mexico to our family, our daughter Sophie, and our beloved pet dog Toby, we’re embarking on our first family business with love, dedication, and an honest, hardworking ethos.

With 20 years of experience as a woodwork teacher, alongside expertise in custom wood design and manufacturing, I’ve spent decades honing my craft—turning timber into timeless pieces that tell a story. From bespoke furniture to outdoor structures, every creation at Killinthomas Timberworks is a labor of love, designed to bring your vision to life with passion and precision.

As proud members of our local community, we’re deeply involved through sports like GAA and other initiatives, cherishing the bonds that make Rathangan so special. At Killinthomas Timberworks, we’re not just crafting furniture—we’re building legacies, fostering connections, and celebrating the joy of creating together. Let us craft your vision with the same passion that drives our family every day.
