Having been trained as a traditional cabinet maker we aim to provide high quality furniture (free-standing and fitted) which if treated properly should last more than a couple of lifetimes. We work with you to create bespoke pieces of furniture ranging from elaborate hardwood rocking chairs and delicate secret jewelry boxes to attractive yet practical birch ply cupboards and shelving. We have worked with many woods and veneers and can incorporate other materials into a design such as glass or metal.
At Benjamin Henry we are experienced in making solid wooden doors and windows, bespoke feature paneling, elegant staircases and other specialist joinery. We use all types of timber and we aim to get them to the right moisture content before we come to fit them. This reduces the likelihood of the wood shrinking or expanding once installed. We make kitchens, whether you want a high end dovetail kitchen made from scratch or a ready made kit that needs assembling with worktops and appliances. We can almost always beat the manufactures assembly price yet we can also do the tiling, electric and plumbing as well, helping you to avoid the need of having to contact and coordinate many tradesmen.
We offer a highly professional service from start to finish consisting of a free consultation and quote, working with you or your Architect/interior designer to make sure there is thought in every detail, yet always keeping to your allocated budget. To make sure all your requirements are met you will be consulted, if you wish, through every stage to ensure we capture your vision. We like to work with the highest quality materials, to make sure it is enjoyed for decades to come. For example we often use Accoya, which is a wood that has been developed into a ultra durable and stable material, which comes with a 50 year guarantee against any rotting or fungi.
