Residential joinery for London homes

Residential joinery is fitted woodwork made for the rooms you live in: wardrobes, dressing rooms and bedroom furniture, surveyed, made in our workshop and installed by the people who built it.

Bespoke fitted wardrobe run with glazed sliding doors in a London bedroom

Most London homes are not square. Chimney breasts sit off centre, ceilings drop, skirtings and cornices run out of true, and standard furniture never quite settles into the space. Bespoke joinery removes that compromise: every carcass is set out from a measured survey of your room, so runs finish tight to the wall and lines carry through from one element to the next.

Our residential work is focused: walk-in wardrobes, bespoke fitted wardrobes, floor to ceiling wardrobes, dressing rooms and bespoke bedroom furniture. Because the scope is narrow, a whole bedroom floor can be drawn as one scheme, sharing timber, finish and hardware so nothing looks added on later.

We are joiners and cabinetmakers only. We do not take on structural alterations or general building work, which keeps our attention on the part of a project people touch and look at every day.

House joinery covers a wide range, from staircases and windows to built-in furniture. Ours is the furniture end of that range. If you are weighing up whether a room needs a joiner or a carpenter, the useful test is whether the finished piece is made to fit one particular space and is meant to be seen every day. A wardrobe filling a chimney-breast alcove, a dressing room lined wall to wall, or a bed wall with integrated side tables all fall on the joinery side.

Timing is usually shorter on site than homeowners expect. Most of the programme is spent on the survey, drawings and workshop making, so the room remains in use while the pieces are built, and fitting is a matter of days rather than weeks for a typical wardrobe run. Where a room is being renovated, we prefer to survey once walls are plastered so that measurements hold.

We work across Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea, Hammersmith and Fulham, Camden and Islington, for homeowners, interior designers, architects and developers.

Frequently asked questions

What does residential joinery include?
For us it means walk-in wardrobes, bespoke fitted wardrobes, floor to ceiling wardrobes, dressing rooms and bespoke bedroom furniture, plus built-in wardrobes, alcove units and under-stairs storage.
Do you take on building work as well?
No. We are joiners and cabinetmakers only and do not take on structural alterations or general building work.
Can you work to my architect or interior designer's scheme?
Yes. We produce detailed drawings from their scheme for sign-off before anything is made.
When should you survey during a renovation?
Ideally once walls are plastered, so the measurements we draw from match the finished room.
