Cornwall is a county of granite cottages, fishermen's terraces and a strong second-home refurbishment market. That is exactly the kind of building stock a boot room has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
Walls in Cornwall are rarely square and floors are rarely level. A boot room that is built in a workshop to a nominal size will show every millimetre of that. We survey first, scribe on site, and finish so the joint line disappears.
How we build it
Timber is chosen for the room it is going into. Painted work is built in tulipwood and moisture-resistant MDF because they hold a crisp arris and take a sprayed finish without grain rise. Where the grain is meant to be seen we use European oak, walnut or ash, with veneers laid so the figure runs continuously across a set of doors.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Boot Rooms & Cloakrooms in Cornwall — common questions
How much hanging space per person?
Allow 300mm of rail or two hooks per person for everyday coats, plus a shared section for the bulky winter items. Families always underestimate this.
What finish survives wet coats and muddy boots?
Sprayed two-pack lacquer on MR MDF, or oiled oak. Standard emulsion or brushed eggshell will mark at knee height within a season.
What about dog kit?
A dedicated low cupboard for leads, towels and food, plus a wipe-clean floor area for a bed or a bowl. A pull-out step also helps for washing a muddy dog in a low sink.
Can you include a sink?
Yes, and a deep Belfast is the practical choice. We build the cabinetry and worktop around it; the plumbing connection is a separate trade.
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.
