Teesside is a county of Victorian ironworks terraces and a large stock of post-war and modern estates. 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
Every utility room we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Teesside, check the walls for wind and the floor for fall, then cut a carcass that fits the room you actually have.
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.

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 Teesside — common questions
How much space does a utility actually need?
A 1,800mm run against one wall houses two machines, a sink and a small worktop. That is the realistic minimum for it to be worth doing.
What worktop suits a utility?
Laminate or quartz. Timber will suffer around a sink and behind a washing machine where it gets repeated splashes and steam.
Can I dry clothes in there?
Yes, with a ceiling-mounted airer or a pull-down rail, and an extract fan on a humidistat. Drying clothes in a sealed room is how you get mould on the ceiling.
What height should the appliance housing be?
Standard 900mm worktop height, with the machines under. Raising them 300mm on a plinth saves your back and is popular, but you lose the worktop run above them.
How do I pay, and when?
A deposit at order to cover materials, a stage payment when the work leaves the workshop, and the balance on completion after you have inspected the fit. Everything is written into the quotation before you commit.
