What's included

  • Site measure of the recess or wall — to the millimetre, no rounding
  • Carcasses cut from 18mm MR-MDF or birch ply, hand-finished to taste
  • Soft-close hinges and runners as standard
  • Internal fit-out: shelves, hanging rails, drawers, shoe trays, pull-down rails
  • Decorating-ready primer or a full finished paint job in any spec

Storage gets boring fast unless it is built for what you actually own. A wardrobe deep enough for winter coats. A drawer the right height for jeans, not skirts. Pull-out shoe trays low down where shoes belong, not jammed in the bottom of a hanging space.

We build to the room — alcove cupboards round chimney breasts, full-height wardrobes that disappear into the wall, under-stair pull-outs, window-seat storage. Mostly MDF or birch ply, mostly painted on-site, mostly fitted in under a week.

Our process

  1. 01

    Site visit

    We come round, measure properly, talk about what actually goes inside (shoes, hanging, folded, bulky winter coats).

  2. 02

    Sketch and quote

    You get a drawing of the internal layout and a fixed quote. Changes welcome at this stage.

  3. 03

    Build

    Cut, assembled and pre-finished off-site where we can, so your house gets two or three days of fitting rather than a fortnight of dust.

  4. 04

    Fit and finish

    Carcasses installed, doors hung, internals fitted, beading scribed to wall. Decorator-ready or fully painted.

  • Updated my daughter's wardrobe — new sliding doors, runners etc. Very well done, reliable and efficient, no excuses, very pleased. Also replaced hinges on doors. Would highly recommend this company.

  • This week I had the pleasure of having Surma Joinery come into our home to fit two new sliding wardrobe doors in both our bedroom and spare bedroom. The work was completed over two days, and from start to finish the service was excellent. They were quick to come out and provide a quote, and just as swift getting the work booked in and completed. Brilliant company — professional, efficient, and the quality of work is fantastic. Highly recommend!

  • Rafal has restored my faith in tradespeople! What a refreshing experience. Rafal fitted our kitchen, including cabinets, oak worktops, cupboards, shaker door on utility cupboard, bathroom door and cladding under the stairs to a very high standard. Rafal and his colleague both had great work ethics, were very professional and arrived on the dates and times arranged and had lots of energy and enthusiasm to bring to the project. He also checked in frequently to make sure we were happy with the work so far. Very reasonably priced for the standard of work and I don't think I could use anyone else going forward. Thanks Rafal and team.

Frequently asked

What is the difference between a fitted wardrobe and a freestanding one?
A fitted wardrobe uses the wall and the ceiling, so you get useable storage everywhere a freestanding piece would leave dead air. It also looks built-in, which is what most people want.
Can you match existing skirting and cornice?
Yes. We profile match where we can buy off the shelf, and route a custom profile where we cannot. Joins are scribed, not just butted.
Painted or pre-finished?
Both work. Pre-finished doors save time and money. Painting on-site gives a better colour match if you are trying to disappear the wardrobe into a wall.
How long does a typical alcove cupboard take?
Two days on-site for a single alcove. A full wall of fitted wardrobes is three to five days, plus a separate painting visit if we are finishing.
Do you do sliding doors?
We do, but we usually steer people toward hinged where the room allows. Sliders eat 200–300mm of internal depth that hinged would not.
