Custom Cabinets in Bathwick
Fitted cabinetry for the rooms outside the bedroom — alcove units either side of a chimney breast, media walls, bookcases, utility and living-room storage. Where fitted wardrobes solve bedroom storage, this is the same made-to-measure approach applied to the rest of the house. Every unit is built to the exact space, painted or finished to match existing joinery where needed. Available across Bath, Bristol and Keynsham — see the areas covered for specific neighbourhoods.

Planning & permissions
The planning context in Bathwick
Common extension patterns in Bathwick
Bathwick cabinet patterns: alcove units either side of a chimney breast (typically 30-50cm deep, full-height to ceiling, MDF painted or solid timber), full-width media walls (2-3m wide, with cable management), bookcases to fill bay windows (2-3m wide x 2.4m tall), and utility storage for the wider Georgian villas. Most Bathwick jobs use MDF painted (matches Georgian moulded style) or solid timber (premium feel). The conservation area context favours traditional painted finishes.
