The houses in Buckingham
A Georgian market town with a listed centre, Victorian housing around it and modern estates on the edges.
Period property in the centre means scribed, reversible work rather than anything fixed hard into historic fabric. The newer estates are square and the job there is making a standard bedroom hold more than it was designed to.
Much of the old town was rebuilt after the fire of 1725, which is why the centre reads as Georgian rather than older.
That is the point of building rather than buying. A wardrobe made for the room goes to the ceiling, into the alcove and up to the skirting, and the awkward bits of the house become storage instead of dead air.

Built for the room, not bought for it
Every job starts the same way: someone comes out, measures the room as it really is, and prices the work. Walls are never quite straight and floors are never quite level, so the parts are made to suit what is actually there and scribed in on site.
That is the difference between a wardrobe that fits a Buckingham bedroom and one that fits a catalogue.
5.0 from 7 Google reviews
We asked a family friend for a personal recommendation for a reliable and trustworthy carpenter and this is how we came across Max. We were looking for custom built wardrobes to be designed and built in two bedrooms as well as other bits and pieces.
From start to finish, Max has been a godsend. The advice and help provided has been invaluable. The dedication he has to producing work to a very high standard is second to none. On top of this, Max is punctual, hard working and a pleasure to have around. We are so happy with his work that we are now exploring additional projects. Thank you Max!
Buckingham questions
Do you cover all of Buckingham?
Yes, the whole of MK18 and the streets around it. Travel is included in the price, so there is no mileage charge wherever in the area you are.
Can you build around a chimney breast in a Buckingham house?
That is the most common job there is. An alcove either side of a breast is exactly the shape nothing off a shelf will fit, and exactly the shape a built-in cupboard is for.
Do the wardrobes need painting?
Mostly not. What we fit is usually MFC, which arrives already finished in the colour you picked, so there is nothing to paint and nothing to re-coat later. If a job is built out of MDF and you want it painted, we bring a painter in.
Will the house be full of dust?
There is no such thing as no dust, but there is a lot of difference between a tidy job and a messy one. We sheet up, cut in one place where we can, and clear the room at the end of every day.
