Bespoke Joinery & Fitted Furniture in Notting Hill.
Older houses are full of spaces that off-the-shelf furniture cannot use: chimney-breast alcoves, high ceilings, sloping loft walls, awkward landings. Fitted joinery makes those spaces work, and it is the detail that most often makes a refurbished home feel finished.
We design every piece to the room, picking up the proportions of the existing doors, skirtings and cornices in the period houses of Notting Hill, or making a deliberately contemporary contrast where that suits the scheme. Wardrobes, dressing rooms, media walls, home offices, libraries and boot rooms are all drawn in full before they are made.
Manufacture takes six to eight weeks from approved drawings, followed by a few days on site for installation and hand-finishing. Where joinery forms part of a wider refurbishment, it is programmed in with the rest of the work.

Notting Hill: the houses and the planning rules.
Notting Hill is the Ladbroke estate: crescents of paired stucco villas laid out in the 1840s around private communal gardens, with painted terraces sloping down towards Portobello Road and the red-brick mansion blocks of Pembridge Square. It is one of the largest and most recognisable Victorian suburbs in London, and it is protected accordingly.
Most of the houses have been through several lives, from single family homes to bedsits and back again, so refurbishments here often involve reinstating original layouts, repairing stucco and cornices, and adding basements and rear extensions that the communal-garden rules and RBKC policy allow.
The Pembridge, Ladbroke, Norland and Kensington Park conservation areas cover almost all of Notting Hill.
Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
RBKC decides applications. The Ladbroke and Pembridge conservation areas have Article 4 directions, so most external changes, including rear extensions and roof works, need a full application.
Communal gardens
Houses backing onto the communal gardens are covered by garden committee rules as well as planning, which affect rear extensions, terraces and boundary treatments.
Basements
New basements follow the borough's single-storey policy with a construction traffic management plan and structural method statement.

Fitted furniture does not need planning permission. In listed buildings we design it to be freestanding or reversible so that it does not affect historic fabric and does not need listed building consent.
