Carmarthenshire is a county of rendered cottages, Georgian market-town stock and dispersed farmsteads. That is exactly the kind of building stock a pantry 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 pantries & larders in Carmarthenshire 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
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
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
Pantries & Larders in Carmarthenshire — common questions
Do the shelves need to be adjustable?
Yes. Tinned goods, cereal boxes and bottles are all different heights, and what you store changes. Drilled rows and shelf pins are cheap and make the cupboard usable for decades.
What is the difference between a pantry and a larder?
Strictly, a larder is a cool room or cupboard for perishables and a pantry is dry storage. In practice people use them interchangeably for a full-height cupboard with an internal worktop and shelving.
What goes on the inside of the doors?
Shallow racks for jars, spices and packets. The door racks are usually where a larder earns its keep, because you can see everything at once instead of digging behind.
What worktop inside the larder?
A timber shelf is fine and warmer looking. If a kettle lives in there, add a stone or laminate insert behind it, because steam will lift an oiled timber edge over time.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
