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 fitted home office 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 Dundee and Angus are rarely square and floors are rarely level. A fitted home office 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.

Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Home Offices & Studies in Dundee and Angus — common questions
What lighting works for a home office?
Light from the side rather than behind or in front, plus a task lamp. A window directly behind the screen causes glare; directly in front causes silhouetting on video calls.
Can it be closed away when not in use?
Yes — bifold or pocket doors over the whole run turn it back into a cupboard at the end of the day. It is the single most requested feature in home office work now.
Can two people work in the same run?
Yes, with 1,400mm per person as a working minimum. Facing each other across a shared worktop needs a monitor screen between or you will spend the day looking at each other.
Should the desk be at standard height?
740mm to 750mm suits most people in a normal chair. If you want a sit-stand position, we build the run around a proprietary electric frame rather than making the top fixed.
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.
