Northamptonshire is a county of ironstone villages, Victorian boot-and-shoe terraces and large new settlements. 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
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For boot rooms & cloakrooms in Northamptonshire we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Moisture matters more than most people expect. Timber is conditioned before machining, and anything going into a kitchen, utility or bathroom is specified in materials that will not swell at the bottom edge. That is why the base of a well-made unit still closes cleanly after five winters.
Finish and materials
You can have it primed for your own decorator, sprayed in any RAL or heritage colour, or left in oiled timber. Oiled finishes can be refreshed at home; sprayed finishes are harder wearing and are what we recommend for kitchens and anything at knee height.

Straight answers
Boot Rooms & Cloakrooms in Northamptonshire — common questions
Do I need a separate room for this?
No. A 1.5m run in a hallway or a section of a utility room works. The value is in the arrangement — bench, hooks above, closed storage below — not the square metres.
How high should the hooks be?
1,700mm for adults, with a second row at 1,100mm for children. Adjustable rails are not worth it — fix them, and add the lower row from the start.
Should there be a bench?
Yes. A 450mm-high bench with open shoe storage beneath is the single most useful thing in a boot room — it is where boots come off, which is the whole point of the room.
Can you build in space for drying?
A drying zone with a slatted shelf over a radiator, or a rail on a pulley, works well. It needs ventilation — a boot room that traps damp will smell within weeks.
Do you charge for the survey and drawings?
The measured survey and the quotation are free. If you want fully detailed manufacturing drawings or a 3D visual before committing, that is chargeable and the fee comes off the job if you proceed.
