Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How much does custom carpentry cost?

The cost of bespoke carpentry depends on materials, complexity, and project size. A simple fitted wardrobe may start from £1,500, while large-scale timber framing or custom staircases can cost significantly more. We provide detailed quotes tailored to your requirements.

2. Do I need planning permission for carpentry work?

Most internal carpentry projects, such as built-in furniture, doors, and flooring, do not require planning permission. However, if your project involves structural changes or is part of a listed building, approval may be necessary. We can advise on building regulations compliance.

3. How long does it take to complete a carpentry project?

Project timelines vary based on size and complexity. A custom-built staircase can take 2-4 weeks, while structural carpentry for a new build may take several months. We provide a clear project schedule to ensure efficient completion.
