West Sussex is a county of flint and tile-hung cottages inland with Regency and Victorian stock on the coast. 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
A fitted home office is a permanent part of the building, so it is worth setting out properly. We take the survey, agree the drawings, machine the parts in the workshop and fit in West Sussex in one visit wherever the programme allows.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
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.

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 West Sussex — common questions
How do you manage the cables?
A cable tray under the full length of the desk, grommets at each workstation, and a single ventilated cupboard for the router, hub and power. Done once at build stage it stays tidy permanently.
Can you build in a printer and filing?
Yes. A pull-out shelf for the printer at low level is much better than a fixed shelf — it lets you reach the back for paper jams. Filing is usually a two-drawer bank under the desk on full-extension runners.
Can an office fit into an alcove or a landing?
Frequently. A 1,200mm alcove takes a full workstation with shelving above, and a landing return can take a desk under a window. Both are much better than a table in a corner of a bedroom.
How deep should a built-in desk be?
700mm minimum for a monitor at a comfortable distance. 600mm works for a laptop only. Less than 600mm and you will end up sitting too close to the screen.
Do I need to empty the room before you fit?
Clear the working wall and anything fragile. We bring dust sheets and a vacuum-extracted saw, but fitting makes dust and we would rather your furniture was out of the way. For kitchens we will agree a sequence with you so you keep a sink and a kettle for as long as possible.
