Shropshire is a county of timber-framed and brick town houses, stone cottages and scattered rural farmsteads. 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
We build home offices & studies as cabinetmakers rather than fitters: machined joints, real carcass construction, and a finish applied under workshop conditions before anything reaches your Shropshire address.
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
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.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
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
Home Offices & Studies in Shropshire — common questions
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.
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.
Do you work with architects and builders?
Regularly. We can work to your drawings and specification, price from a schedule, and co-ordinate with the main contractor's programme. We are equally happy dealing directly with a homeowner from a rough sketch.
