Flintshire is a county of brick and rendered village housing with extensive modern development. That is exactly the kind of building stock a hardwood bar front 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 hardwood bar fronts in Flintshire 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
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.

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
Hardwood Bar Fronts in Flintshire — common questions
Do you build the back-fit as well?
Yes — shelving, bottle steps and under-counter housings, sized around the equipment schedule. Building the back-fit before the equipment is confirmed is how you end up cutting finished joinery on site.
Can panels be replaced individually?
That is how we build them. The framing stays and the panels come out, so a damaged section is a morning's work rather than a new bar front.
What makes a bar front different from domestic joinery?
It gets kicked, spilled on and cleaned with things you would never use at home, then repeated every night. The build has to assume abuse — thicker sections, replaceable panels, and a footrail that takes real weight.
How is it finished?
Lacquered for cleanability rather than oiled — a bar front sees chemical cleaners nightly and needs a surface film. The top gets a harder-wearing spec than the front.
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.
