Fitted furniture in Cottenham

If you are looking at Window Seats and Shutters in Cottenham, the timber is only half the decision. Around here it is college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. The weather does the rest: the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind here, and shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock as the predictable result. The value is in shutters that fold back into the reveal without fouling the frame, not in the timber bill.

Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.

One local point to factor in: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

What we cover locally

Survey visits in Cottenham are usually booked within a week. There is no charge for the survey and no obligation to proceed.

Nothing in your house is square in Cottenham

Which is the entire reason built-in furniture costs more than flat-pack, and the entire reason it looks better.

01

We scribe to the wall

Every panel is cut to the actual line of the plaster, so there is no tapering gap running down the side of the unit.

02

We measure at three heights

Alcoves are routinely 20 to 40mm wider at the bottom than the top. One measurement is how you end up packing the gap out.

03

We finish off site

Sprayed under workshop conditions, which is a level of finish site application simply cannot reach.

Cottenham questions

Do you take a deposit?

Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.

Can you match an existing profile?

Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.

Can you price from drawings?

Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.

Can you work on a listed building?

Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.

Is the timber certified?

All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
