What happens on fitting day
When the fitting is done, we tidy the room. Before we go, we look over the finished furniture with you and answer any questions. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the bed and the cabinets around it, and your quote sets out the fitting days. Original hallway tiles and old floorboards are worth protecting, so they’re covered before anything comes in. Drilling into lath and plaster is done with care, so the plaster around stays sound. Any decorating around the new pieces is for your decorator.
- You tell us about the room.
- At the design visit we agree the layout and the colour.

Tips worth knowing
Painted fitted furniture is easy to look after with a little care. These habits help most:
- Lower and lift the bed steadily
- Check your lease if you live in a flat
- Measure the clear space in front of the wall
- Check mattress size and weight limits
Hand-painted finishes are easy to touch in if the cabinet gets a knock. A spray finish wipes clean and stays smooth and even.
