Free survey and fixed written price.
Home Libraries across Greater London
The Home Libraries we make for Greater London is set out from a survey, not a size chart. Property here runs to Victorian and Edwardian terraces, mansion blocks and post-war infill, and each of those brings its own set of dimensions. With high pollution load and sheltered urban humidity in the mix, paint failure on south-facing sashes and rot at the bottom rail is a question of when rather than whether. The value is in shelf spans calculated so loaded shelves do not sag over time, not in the timber bill.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Local factor worth flagging early: large numbers of properties sit in conservation areas with like-for-like replacement conditions.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Greater London?
Yes. We cover the whole of Greater London including Croydon, Bromley, Ealing, Enfield and the surrounding villages. Large numbers of properties sit in conservation areas with like-for-like replacement conditions. Because high pollution load and sheltered urban humidity, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
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.
