Dundee and Angus is a county of sandstone tenements, jute-era terraces and coastal town housing. 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
Every boot room we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Dundee and Angus, check the walls for wind and the floor for fall, then cut a carcass that fits the room you actually have.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

Straight answers
Boot Rooms & Cloakrooms in Dundee and Angus — common questions
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.
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.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
