Does Hammonds offer a fitted furniture design service?

Yes. To buy Hammonds fitted furniture, you'll need to book a free design appointment. You can do this either virtually via a video call or at your home. 

If you choose a virtual appointment, you'll need to book a time slot for an initial call, where Hammonds staff will discuss your room and options with you.

You'll then need to send Hammonds rough sketches and measurements for your room – you can ask for help with this if needed. You'll then have the video call where the designer will show you their 3D design of your room and ideas.

If you opt for an at-home appointment, the designer will measure up and discuss options and styles with you. They will then draw up a 3D design to help you visualise your choice.

Can you install your own Hammonds fitted furniture?

No. Hammonds furniture is made to measure and installed by Hammonds.

Hammonds guarantees

Hammonds offers a 10-year guarantee on all of its wardrobes, which is similar to most of the other companies that we surveyed. 

It also has a 30-day guarantee on its workmanship. This is not the most generous policy we found – for example, Sharps offers a 15-year product and workmanship – but it is better than some others.
