\n Do you only work with IKEA PAX?<\/span>\n
\n <\/svg>\n <\/svg>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

We specialise in the IKEA PAX system, which we combine with our own bespoke carpentry skills to achieve a fully custom, built-in look. The PAX system gives us the flexibility to create wardrobes that fit any space \u2014 including alcoves, loft rooms and angled ceilings \u2014 at a far more affordable price than traditional joinery.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n <\/svg>\n <\/svg>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Absolutely \u2014 awkward spaces are our speciality. We regularly install wardrobes in alcoves, chimney breast recesses, loft conversions with sloped ceilings, rooms with low eaves and any other tricky layouts. If you have an unusual space, we'd love to take a look.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n Do you work on weekends?<\/span>\n
\n <\/svg>\n <\/svg>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
