Merseyside is a county of Georgian and Victorian townhouses, terraced streets and post-war regeneration stock. That is exactly the kind of building stock a utility room 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 utility room 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 Merseyside 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
Utility Rooms in Merseyside — common questions
Can a utility double as a boot room?
Very commonly, yes. Add a bench, hooks and open shoe storage at one end and it does both jobs. Keep the wet trades — sink, machines — at the other end.
Can a washing machine and dryer be stacked?
Yes, with a proper stacking kit rather than one simply sitting on the other. Stacking frees a full 600mm bay, and we build the housing with a pull-out shelf between them for folding.
How do you deal with the noise?
Mass and isolation. A closed carcass around the appliances with an 18mm back, plus anti-vibration feet, makes a noticeable difference. Do not seal it completely — a condenser dryer needs air.
Do I need a separate sink?
It is the most-missed item in a utility. A deep single bowl for handwashing, mop buckets and muddy kit is worth losing a base unit for.
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.
