We work in Christchurch regularly enough to know the housing stock: purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort housing and a large retirement-build stock. That shapes how a carcass is built and how much scribe is left on a filler panel, and it is the difference between joinery that looks fitted and joinery that looks delivered.

A surveyor comes out, measures the opening in three places, checks the walls for plumb and the floor for level, and takes the survey away with photographs. You get setting-out drawings and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have signed the drawings off.
Survey slots in Christchurch are booked in runs across Dorset, usually within a fortnight. Call 0800 088 6248 or use the form and we will confirm the next available date.

Joinery in Christchurch — common questions
Is bespoke joinery more expensive than a fitted furniture chain?
On a like-for-like specification it is usually comparable, and often less. Chains price a standard carcass and then charge for every deviation. A bespoke maker prices the actual room once. Where bespoke does cost more is in the materials — solid hardwood and sprayed finishes cost more than foil-wrapped board, and they last a great deal longer.
Do I need to empty the room before you fit?
Clear the working wall and anything fragile. We bring dust sheets and a vacuum-extracted saw, but fitting makes dust and we would rather your furniture was out of the way. For kitchens we will agree a sequence with you so you keep a sink and a kettle for as long as possible.
Do you work with architects and builders?
Regularly. We can work to your drawings and specification, price from a schedule, and co-ordinate with the main contractor's programme. We are equally happy dealing directly with a homeowner from a rough sketch.
How long does a bespoke job take from order to fitting?
Most fitted furniture runs four to eight weeks from approved drawings to fitting day. Kitchens, staircases and timber windows are longer at eight to fourteen weeks because the components are larger and the finishing schedule is longer. We give you a date band at quotation and confirm the fitting week once the drawings are signed off.
