What we see in Hertfordshire

Most Fitted Wardrobes enquiries we take in Hertfordshire start with an opening that is not a standard size. Given the garden city stock, Georgian market town frontages and commuter-belt detached housing that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. With moderate rainfall with cold inland frosts in the mix, frost damage to end grain and swelling on unbalanced-finished units is a question of when rather than whether. What you are paying for is using the full height so nothing is wasted above the rail.

Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.

Bear in mind for this area: garden city areas carry design codes that restrict window style changes.

Nothing in your house is square in Hertfordshire

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.

“The alcoves were nearly 40mm out top to bottom and you genuinely cannot tell.”

Hertfordshire questions

Do you cover Hertfordshire?

Yes. We cover the whole of Hertfordshire including Watford, St Albans, Hemel Hempstead, Stevenage and the surrounding villages. Garden city areas carry design codes that restrict window style changes. Because moderate rainfall with cold inland frosts, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.

Will the finish need maintaining?

A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.

How long does a typical order take?

Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.

Do you fit, or supply only?

Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.

How do you handle glazing?

Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.

What if the opening is out of square?

Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
