Last year, we designed, made and fitted a bespoke complete kitchen into the home of clients in Stone, Buckinghamshire. They recently asked us back to design and build a vanity unit for their bathroom. They already knew tha they wanted to use a Villeroy and Boch sink, and we incorporated this into the design. Our clients also wanted the vanity …

Any old doors? Recycling and reusing wood
One of the wonderful aspects of working with wood and timber is that it can be reused and recycled so easily, no matter its age. These are some four panel pine doors from around 100 years ago that have outlived their use in the house of one of our clients. But instead of taking them to the tip, …
Some of our interior joinery skills – Arts and Crafts house

Doorway no longer needed? Look what we did
At the end of March we carried out an interesting job for some clients in the beautiful market town of Thame, Oxfordshire, but just a few minutes from our workshop in Ford, just over the border in Buckinghamshire. They wanted to block up a doorway in a manner that was semi-permanent – that is, could be easily removed in …

Shelving …
Another clever AND useful understairs storage solution
Last month we finished fitting this understairs storage solution for our clients in Chalfont St Peter.

In this particular case, the clients wanted …
TV wall for a living room – Milton Keynes
