Fitted furniture in Guidepost

Nothing about Home Libraries in Guidepost is settled until someone has been on site. With border stone farmhouses, colliery terraces and coastal fishing cottages making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. With the harshest combination of cold, wind and salt in England in the mix, combined frost and salt damage stripping finishes within a few seasons is a question of when rather than whether. Where we put the effort is shelf spans calculated so loaded shelves do not sag over time.

We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. Send us sizes and a photograph and we will come back with a fixed written price.

One local point to factor in: Northumberland exposure justifies the heaviest sections and stainless fixings.

What we cover locally

Survey visits in Guidepost 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 Guidepost

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.

Guidepost questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

Do you deliver nationwide?

Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
