Service overview

## What home offices involves and who it is for

### What home offices is
A fitted home office is a desk run, storage and shelving built into the room, with power, data and lighting designed in. We make the joinery in our Stratford-upon-Avon workshop and fit it with our own team, including the electrical work needed to keep cables out of sight.

### Who it is for
It suits people who work from home regularly rather than occasionally, households needing two working positions in one room, and anyone whose current setup is a dining table or a flat-pack desk that has started to fail. It also suits smaller spaces, a landing, an alcove, a box room, where standard furniture does not fit.

### When it is needed
Usually when hybrid working becomes permanent, when a room changes use, or during a renovation when power and data can be routed before decoration. Retrofits are straightforward too; the cable routes simply need designing around what exists.

### Why professional joinery matters
A desk you use eight hours a day is ergonomic equipment, not decoration. Height, depth, knee clearance, monitor distance, light direction and cable management all affect how the day feels. A fitted office lets all of those be set correctly for the person using it and the room it is in.

The cost of getting it wrong

## What happens when this is left too long
The cost of a poor home office is paid in concentration and in posture, and it compounds week after week.

### Risks and escalating costs

- A dining-table desk means clearing the workspace every evening and rebuilding it every morning.
- Wrong desk height causes shoulder and wrist strain over long working days.
- Shelving that sags under files and folders eventually fails, usually onto the desk.
- Trailing cables are a trip hazard and make the room impossible to clean properly.
- Screens positioned against a window cause glare that no amount of squinting fixes.

### Common mistakes we are called in to fix

- Buying a desk by width only, without checking depth for monitor distance.
- Planning storage for paper when the real need is kit, cables and a printer.
- Placing the desk where the only socket is, rather than moving the power to the desk.
- Forgetting the second person, the second screen or the video-call background.
- Leaving lighting to a ceiling fitting that sits directly behind the screen.

Our process

## Five stages from first visit to finished joinery

- Step 1

### Free consultation and survey
We measure the room, look at light and sockets, and discuss how you work and what has to be stored.

- Step 2

### Design and itemised quotation
Desk heights, depths, storage and cable routes are drawn and agreed, then priced individually. Free of charge.

- Step 3

### First fix and manufacture
Power and data are routed by our in-house electrician while the joinery is made in our workshop.

- Step 4

### Installation
Desk runs, shelving and storage are fitted, scribed and wired, with cabling dressed into the joinery.

- Step 5

### Test and hand over
Power, lighting and data tested, everything adjusted, and the room cleaned and handed back ready to work in.

What you get

## The difference made-to-measure joinery actually delivers

### Set to your working posture
Desk height and depth sized to you and your screens rather than to a standard.

### Cables out of sight
Power and data routed inside the joinery, with grommets and trays where they are needed.

### Shelving that holds
Spans and thicknesses specified for files, books and kit, so nothing bows.

### A room you can close
Printers, chargers and paperwork stored behind doors, so the office stops being visible at 7pm.

### Lighting that suits screens
Task and shelf lighting positioned to avoid glare and shadow, wired by our own electrician.

### Fits the space you have
Alcoves, landings and box rooms all become viable when the furniture is made for them.

- Desk runs sized to your monitors and working posture
- Power and data routed in with the joinery
- Storage for files, printers and kit behind closed doors
- Sound and light considered in the layout

In detail

## Materials, methods and variations
Whether it is a spare room, a landing or an alcove in the living room, we design the office around the space and the way you work.

Design consultations and quotations are free. There is no fixed price list, every project is priced individually because every project is made to measure. A deposit of 30–50% is taken depending on the size of the work.

### Materials we use
Desk tops need to resist wear from forearms, keyboards and chair arms, so we use solid timber or a robust veneered panel with a hardwood lipping on the front edge. Carcasses and shelving are built in stable board, with shelf thickness chosen by span, a 1,200mm shelf loaded with box files is a structural decision, not a stylistic one.

Finishes range from hand-painted to oiled oak, ash and walnut. Where two desk positions share a run, we keep the top continuous rather than joining it in the middle, which keeps the surface flat and avoids a seam under the keyboard.

### Methods: ergonomics and services
We set desk height to the person, allow knee clearance and depth for the monitor distance being used, and position the desk to control glare, usually with the window to the side rather than behind or in front. Where two people share a room, working positions are separated so calls do not collide.

Power and data are first fixed before the joinery closes up. Sockets are placed at desk level within cabinetry, cable trays carry the runs, and grommets bring only what is needed to the surface. Our in-house electrician does this work as part of the project, so nothing is left as a surface-mounted afterthought.

### Variations of the service
Single desk runs in an alcove. Full-wall office walls combining desk, shelving and closed storage. Twin desks for two people working simultaneously. Landing and box-room offices in tight footprints. Study nooks built into a living room or bedroom that close away when not in use. Offices combined with a library wall, or with a guest bed where the room has to do two jobs.

### Situations this applies to
Period homes in Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick where the only free space is an awkward alcove. Leamington Spa and Cheltenham townhouses with tall rooms suited to full-height library-office walls. Family homes in Solihull, Worcester and Bromsgrove where a box room has to become a genuine workspace. Loft conversions where eaves storage keeps the floor clear.

### Residential and commercial
We also fit out commercial offices, desk runs, storage walls, reception joinery and meeting-room cabinetry, with commercial-grade materials and documented electrical work. SMAS, CHAS and Safecontractor accredited, DBS-checked team, £10 million public liability and £5 million employer's liability cover.

Common questions

## Answers before you enquire

How much does a fitted home office cost?Each office is priced individually after a survey, depending on the desk run, storage, finish and electrical work. The consultation and quotation are free.

Can you fit an office into a small box room or landing?Yes. Small spaces are exactly where made-to-measure joinery outperforms bought furniture.

Do you handle sockets and network points?Yes. Our in-house electrician routes power and data as part of the project so cables stay inside the joinery.

Can you build for two people in one room?Yes. We plan the working positions, storage and lighting so two people can work at once without getting in each other's way.

What desk height will you build to?We set it to the person using it and the chair they use, rather than defaulting to a standard height.

How long does the work take?Manufacture happens in our workshop; on-site time is first fix and installation. Dates are confirmed with the quotation.

What deposit do you take?30–50% depending on the size of the project, with the balance on completion.

Which areas do you cover?Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick, Leamington Spa, Solihull, Evesham, Banbury, Worcester, Cheltenham and Bromsgrove.
