Isle of Wight is a county of stone and rendered cottages, Victorian resort villas and exposed coastal properties. That is exactly the kind of building stock a set of console brackets 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 set of console brackets we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Isle of Wight, 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
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
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
Console Brackets & Corbels in Isle of Wight — common questions
Do they serve any function?
They mask the joint between the pilaster and the fascia and throw a little water clear of it. Mostly, though, they exist because the eye expects the vertical to terminate in something.
What is a console bracket?
The scrolled bracket at the top of each pilaster where it meets the fascia. Structurally it is trim; visually it is the detail that separates a considered frontage from a flat one.
Can you copy an existing bracket?
Yes. If one survives we take it off, template it and reproduce the pair. If none survives we work from photographs of the terrace and match the local pattern.
Do they need separate consent?
Not usually on their own, but on a listed building they form part of the approved elevation, so the profile matters to the officer.
How do I pay, and when?
A deposit at order to cover materials, a stage payment when the work leaves the workshop, and the balance on completion after you have inspected the fit. Everything is written into the quotation before you commit.
