What we do and how we do it

If Kitchen Joinery in the UK were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. Because the area is mainly a mix of period and modern stock, no two openings measure quite the same. Because of the full range of UK exposure conditions, we see coating failure followed by rot at the joints more often here than in most of the country. Everything we do here comes back to in-frame doors where the shadow gap has to stay even everywhere.

A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.

Local factor worth flagging early: specification should always be matched to local exposure.

Specification

  • Engineered hardwood or slow-grown softwood, FSC certified
  • Factory-applied microporous finish in any RAL or heritage colour
  • Sealed units, slim-cavity units or single glazing with putty line
  • Manufactured to survey dimensions, not to a stock size chart
  • Delivered UK-wide with chain-of-custody paperwork

Nothing in your house is square

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.

Scribed to your walls

Nothing is square in a real house. Everything is fitted to what is actually there.

Workshop finished

Sprayed under controlled conditions, which no site application can match.

Solid timber and veneer

Specified to suit the piece rather than to suit our stock list.

10-year guarantee

Covering the carcass, the doors and the finish.

Frequently asked questions

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.

Do you work in hardwood or softwood?

Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
