Requested four Bespoke cabinets to fit into existing spaces. Immaculately finished and installed. Kept me updated throughout the design phase. Couldn't be happier with result.

Many thanks Clare, I have thoroughly enjoyed making and fitting your pieces of furniture. I would also say that anyone wanting superb soft furnishings should have a word with Clare at Langdon Interiors of Cranbrook.

Nick made and installed a hanging bookcase which he brought already painted. He also solved a tricky situation by making our store cupboard (part of an in-built kitchen unit) mouse-proof adding another layer of wooden structure inside and he consented to tighten and secure Ikea chairs where the fitting had got loose as well as carry out other minor jobs which were important to us but really beneath his level of expertise. We were very grateful for his first-class service and will definitely use him again when the need arises.

Bespoke TV corner cabinet & glazed display unit

We wanted a corner TV unit with additional drawer units either side, at the same height - something that was impossible to find in the high street. Nick understood our needs and offered us a large range of different woods, mouldings, wax finishes & knobs to choose from. We received a proper quote with drawings and at a very fair price. His attention to detail and craftmanship has resulted in a carefully made, high quality piece of furniture that looks perfect in the space it was designed for. You can see it has been made by someone who takes pride in their work.

The Sussex Bookcase Company designed and made a cubby hole unit to fit along one wall under a sloping ceiling in our bedroom. We had a wide range of finishes to choose from. As well as the unit Nick made fitted wardrobes, again which fit into an unusual space. The unit was made to match the wardrobes. Both pieces were made and fitted quickly and efficiently and within our budget. Nick was professional and friendly. He kept a tidy work area and made sure everything was clean once he had finished. Nothing was too much trouble. The Sussex Bookcase Company is highly recommended, we are extremely pleased with our new pieces of furniture.
