What it costs
A few things affect what fitted furniture costs:
- Parking near your home
- How big the furniture is
- The internal fittings
- Doors and drawers, and how many
We don’t publish set prices, because every piece is designed for one room. We measure up, discuss the design and send a quote in writing, naming the materials and finish. To start, use our contact form.
What we need to know
There is no need for exact sizes or plans. Just send what you can:
- A few photos of the space, taken from the doorway and from each corner
- Any ideas or images you’ve saved
- Whether it’s a house or a flat, and if there are stairs or a lift
- Approximate measurements of the space
You do not need exact measurements to get started. Everything is measured properly when we visit. To arrange it, get in touch through our contact form with a few details about the room. You receive a quote in writing after the visit.
Fitted home offices in North Woolwich
Spare rooms are a natural choice for an office, though many still need space for guests. The office can be planned to leave space for a bed or a sofa, or doors that close over the desk at the end of the day. It is worth talking through during the design visit in North Woolwich. We make home offices from birch ply and moisture-resistant MDF, painted by hand or sprayed, and the things people most often want solved are an alcove or landing that could take a desk and working at the kitchen table.
Some newer homes have a landing or stair space wide enough for a small desk. Around North Woolwich, many homes were built since 2000. A desk like that suits occasional work, with closed storage to keep it tidy. Cable routes run to the nearest sockets.
If the job needs another trade, like an electrician or a plumber, we will tell you, so it can be arranged before fitting day. Our quote covers the carpentry: the design, the materials and the finish.

FAQs: fitted home offices in North Woolwich
Is North Woolwich in the area you cover for fitted home offices?
Yes. North Woolwich is one of the places we work, along with the rest of Newham and London. To get started, you can get in touch through our contact form with some details.
Do you cover homes near Woolwich Dockyard station?
Yes, homes across Newham and the rest of London are within the area we cover. To get started, you can get in touch through our contact form with a few details about the room.
Can you fit sockets in the desk?
Sockets and wiring are for your electrician, not us. The desk is planned with routes for cables and space for any sockets. It helps to agree the positions during the design visit.
What happens at the design visit?
We measure the space and discuss the design, materials and finish. We also check the walls and floors and note radiators, sockets and other things in the way, then send a written quote.
How long is the fitting for a home office?
How long fitting takes depends on the size of the room and the design, and your quote sets out the fitting days. The office is made in our workshop first, so the time in your home is spent fitting. We work tidily and keep the room as clear as we can.
Can a home office go in a loft room?
Yes, where the loft has already been converted. The desk is placed where there is headroom to sit and stand comfortably, and the low space under the slope can hold storage. The conversion itself isn’t our work.
From workshop to your room
When we arrive on fitting day, the first job is covering the floors and protecting the way in from the front door. The sections built in our workshop come in next, one at a time. How long fitting takes depends on the layout and how many pieces make up the office, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. Newer homes often have stud walls, so on fitting day heavy pieces go into the studs or stand on the floor. Floors are protected throughout, as many newer homes have finished floors that mark easily, and dust is kept to a minimum.
- You tell us how you work and where you’d like the office, whether that is a spare room, an alcove or a landing.
- At the design visit, the room is measured and the layout planned.
- We agree the desk, shelving and storage, and send a written quote.
- The office is built in our workshop and painted in your colour. The materials are moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- The office is fitted, scribed to the walls and checked with you. The cable routes are left ready to use.
Getting ready for fitting day
- Book any lift and let the concierge or building manager know
- Tell us about any meters, fuse boards or boilers in the area
- Move furniture and belongings away from the wall
Ask for a quote
To make a start, message us from the contact page and tell us which room you have in mind. We then arrange a design visit to measure and talk through the design, and a quote in writing follows.
Advice
Flats, leases and landlords
Leaseholders should check the lease before anything is fixed to the walls. Some leases need the building owner’s consent for alterations, which is worth sorting early. We cannot give advice on leases, so check it yourself or ask your managing agent.
In a managed block, the building manager or concierge may need notice before we arrive. If there is a lift, it may need booking, and its size matters when we plan the sections. Mention it when you get in touch.
Bespoke fitted home offices or ready-made?
Long, thin shelves can bow under books. Span, depth and load all matter. We size the shelves for what they’ll carry, using birch plywood where strength is needed. Large off-the-shelf pieces can make a small room feel smaller, while fitted furniture, painted in a colour that suits the walls, reads as part of the room.
The inside of the furniture affects the price as well: rails, shelves, drawers and dividers all add work. We’ll talk through what you need inside at the measuring visit, then set it out in the quote.
Why choose us
- Made for your room, not a standard size
- Spray painted or hand painted, in the colour you choose

What we don’t do
Our work is the furniture itself: designing it, making it in our workshop and fitting it. That means:
- New sockets, data points or wiring, which are for your electrician
- Changes to the structure of the house
- Converting a loft to make room for an office
If you are not sure what’s possible in your room, you can message us from the contact page and we’ll give you a straight answer before you arrange a visit. Our process from visit to fitting.
