Workshop-built joinery, fitted in Cranbrook

Cranbrook's Wealden-tile cottages and weatherboarded townhouses need a builder who respects the conservation area. We've worked on Stone Street terraces, farmhouse renovations and modern extensions just outside the town.

Cranbrook is our nearest town and the conservation overlay around Stone Street and the High Street shapes most of what we build here — peg tiles, painted weatherboarding and small-pane sashes are non-negotiable details. We're on site within ten minutes from the Biddenden yard so site visits and snagging visits are easy to schedule.

Our Biddenden workshop is roughly 4 miles from Cranbrook — a 10-minute drive — so templating visits, fittings and snagging trips don't carry distance charges. We've recently worked on streets including Stone Street, The Hill, Angley Road.

Recent Cranbrook project: Single-storey rear extension on a 1930s detached off Angley Road with matching peg-tile roof.

We work across the TN17 postcodes and recognise the typical housing stock in CranbrookWealden hall houses, weatherboarded cottages, 1990s Hartley estates — meaning we already know which scribes, beam tolerances and material substitutions your property will need.

  • Solid hardwood doors, staircases and architraves
  • Bespoke fitted wardrobes and alcove cabinetry
  • Workshop-built kitchen carcasses and worktops
  • Period-property joinery: sash windows, oak frames, beam scribes
  • TV media walls, under-stairs storage and home offices

FAQs

Carpentry in Cranbrook — frequently asked

Can you match period mouldings?

Yes — we template existing skirting, architrave and cornice profiles and machine matching runs in oak, ash, tulipwood or painted MDF.

Do you make solid hardwood doors?

Yes — solid oak, ash, walnut and engineered cores, mortise-and-tenon construction, with shellac, oil or paint finishes.

How long do bespoke doors take?

Typical lead time is 6–8 weeks from sign-off including hardware. Installation is 1–2 days per opening including making-good.

Can you fit doors in older properties with out-of-square openings?

Yes — every opening is measured before workshop production and doors are scribed on site to follow the actual opening, not a standard size.

What ironmongery do you supply?

We have trade accounts with Joseph Giles, Croft, Frank Allart and Corston — solid brass, bronze and stainless options in any finish from polished to patinated.

Do you do staircases as well as doors?

Yes — bespoke staircases in oak, ash or painted softwood, including spindles, newels and handrails matched to the property.
