Bespoke fitted wardrobes, fitted furniture and made-to-measure joinery in Hitchin and SG4, SG5.
The houses in Hitchin
A market town with a medieval and Georgian centre around the square, Victorian terraces spreading out from it, and postwar and modern estates beyond.
In the centre everything has to be cut to walls that have moved for centuries. The Victorian terraces bring the usual chimney breast and alcoves, and the newer estates are about making a standard bedroom work harder.
The market square and the streets around it are largely intact, which is why work in the old town is as much about access and protection as joinery.
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 Hitchin 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!
Hitchin questions
Do you cover all of Hitchin?
Yes, the whole of SG4, SG5 and the streets around it. Travel is included in the price, so there is no mileage charge wherever in the area you are.
Do you take a deposit?
Yes, 50% when you go ahead and the balance on completion. It is written on the bottom of the quote so there are no surprises.
How much is a fitted wardrobe in Hitchin?
It depends on the run and how the inside is laid out, so the honest answer is that we need to see the room. The visit and the quote are both free, and the price comes by email afterwards so you have it in writing.
How long will you be in the house?
It depends on the size of the job. You will get the timescale with the price, and the room is cleared at the end of every day rather than left as a building site while the work is going on.
