Stage 1 of 4: First conversation
A call or meeting about the space, how you use it and what isn't working. We talk about scope and a comfortable budget range, and agree whether a site visit is the right next step.

Stage 2 of 4: Design & 3D
Layouts first, then 3D views and material samples you can hold. We revise together until the plan, the look and the estimate all agree.

Stage 3 of 4: Production
Joinery is made from the approved drawings. Site work — electrical, plumbing, civil — is scheduled so the room is ready when the joinery is.
You receiveA written schedule · Progress updates at agreed points

Stage 4 of 4: Installation
Fitting on site: carcasses levelled, doors aligned, worktops templated and fixed. The site is kept clean and protected each day.
Thin leaves of real oak laid onto a stable board, often matched so the grain runs across doors.
Where we use it
Wardrobe fronts, shelving and panelling where real wood grain is wanted.
Why
Real timber character without the movement and weight of solid wood panels.
Trade-offs
Colour varies naturally between leaves; deep scratches are harder to repair than on solid wood.
Care
Dust and wipe with a barely damp cloth; keep out of long direct sun to limit colour change.
Board edges — the layers that give it strength
Boiling-water-resistant plywood
What it is
Plywood made from thin wood layers bonded with a water-resistant adhesive, often called BWP or marine-grade. It is the box behind the door — the part you rarely see.
Where we use it
Kitchen base units, bathroom vanities and anywhere near water.
Why
It holds screws well, resists swelling from spills and steam, and keeps its shape over years.
Trade-offs
Heavier and costlier than particle board; edges need banding or veneer to look finished.
Care
Wipe spills from edges promptly; keep sink cupboards ventilated.
Door corner — banded edge
Edge banding
What it is
A thin strip applied to the exposed edges of boards, matched to the face finish.
Where we use it
Every visible edge of shelves, carcasses and doors.
Why
It seals the board against moisture and knocks, and makes a cut panel look solid.
Trade-offs
Thin bands can lift if applied poorly; thicker bands are more durable but visible as a line.
Care
Avoid prolonged water on edges; wipe dry.
What affects the cost
Size and complexity
Solid timber or veneer

Questions
Do you take on small projects?
Yes. A single wardrobe, a kitchen or one room gets the same design process as a complete home — just fewer drawings. Tell us what you have in mind and we'll say plainly whether we're the right fit.
Can I choose my own materials or handles?
Yes. We will show you options that suit the use of each space and explain the trade-offs, but the final choice is yours.
Talk to us about your project
Any size of project is welcome. You'll speak to a person, not a sales script.
