Our fitted home offices across Greenwich
Cables are easy to forget and hard to hide later. We design routes through the desk and units for chargers, screens and printers. If you need new sockets, they’re for your electrician, and we plan the furniture around them. Talking it through during the design visit in Greenwich saves trouble later. Typical reasons to get in touch are work things on show in the evening and a room with two jobs to do, and the answer is made at our workshop from MDF made to resist moisture and birch plywood, then spray-painted or hand-painted.
Once the main sections are fixed in place, we hang any doors and fit any drawers or lids. Each one is adjusted until the gaps are even and it closes cleanly. The time the fitting takes depends on how much desk, shelving and storage you want, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote.
- First we hear about your work and the room you have in mind, whether that’s a spare room, an alcove or a landing.
- At the design visit, the room is measured and the layout planned. Cable routes are planned at this point.
- The design is agreed and a written quote follows.
- Every part is built in our workshop, ready for a spray-painted or hand-painted finish. The materials are moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- We fit it in your home and check every drawer and door with you. The cable routes are left ready to use.

Starting with a design visit
You don’t need exact measurements to get started. We measure everything properly during the design visit. To get started, tell us about the room on our contact form and tell us about the room. The written quote follows the visit.
What’s near Plumstead
Our area takes in the homes around Shooters Hill Sixth Form College, St John's Church and Plumstead Common. Nearby too are The Queens Arms (within half a mile north-west), Plumstead Manor School (close by, under half a mile south-east) and South Rise Primary School (within half a mile south-east). Plumstead has its own railway station: Plumstead station. Nearby you will also find British Hospital for Mothers and Babies (1.3 miles west) and Gallions Reach Shopping Park (1.6 miles north).
Built-in desks and shelving across Greenwich
We make fitted home offices for homes across Greenwich, in Plumstead, Eltham and Woolwich and beyond. A desk behind doors suits a room that has to do two things. Long shelves are sized so they don’t sag under files and books.
Homes built since 2000 make up about 26% of the housing in Greenwich, with about 22% built before 1919, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. It is a good starting point, though every room is still measured, as two homes of the same age rarely match. A quarter or more of the homes in Greenwich (about 26%) were built since 2000, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. In homes built since 2000, the spare room is often small and has to do two jobs, so a desk that closes away helps. Purpose-built flats are home to about 43% of households in Greenwich, according to Census 2021. In a block, each section is sized to get up the stairs or into the lift and through the door. Building management rules on lifts, deliveries and working hours are worth checking early.
Homes across Greenwich range from period terraces to modern blocks, and we work in all of them. The process is the same wherever you are: a design visit, a written quote, then making and fitting.
Plumstead: If your home is as old as some of the listed buildings nearby, like The Old Vicarage, original features like shutters, panelling and fireplaces are worth designing around. If your own home is listed, check with the council before fixing into original features. Close to Plumstead Common? A desk facing a window makes the most of the daylight.
Flats, conversions and lettings
For flats on red routes or busy main roads, unloading takes some planning. TfL runs the red routes, and the stopping rules are strict, so it is worth raising during the design visit.
In conversions and newer blocks, many internal walls are timber or metal stud with plasterboard. We choose fixings to suit the wall.
What we do not do
It’s worth being clear about where our work stops:
- New sockets, data points or wiring, which are for your electrician
- Setting up computers, screens or networks
- Structural work, like removing walls or chimney breasts
What it is made from
Hand-painted finish
Some people prefer a hand-painted finish for its softer look. It’s done on site, in the colour you choose. It can match the skirting and doors.
Shelves
We can make fixed shelves, adjustable ones, or a mix. Fixed shelves add stiffness to tall units, and adjustable shelves leave room to change.
Bespoke or off-the-shelf?
Where bespoke earns its keep is in rooms that are not square. In period homes, walls lean, floors slope and the alcoves on each side are often different widths.
It’s worth being honest about cost: off-the-shelf furniture typically costs less up front. Bespoke makes more sense where the room is tricky, the space is valuable or you want the furniture to look built in.
Bespoke or off-the-shelf?
Standard shelving can sag under the weight of books and files. Span, depth and load all matter. We size the shelves for what they’ll carry, using birch plywood where strength is needed.
What to check before you book
- Real projects you can actually look at
- How they handle walls that aren’t straight
- Whether the finish is set out in the quote
- How parking will work on your street
FAQs: fitted home offices in Greenwich
Can the spare room be an office and a guest room?
That depends on the space you have. A compact office along one wall can leave the rest of the room for a bed. At the design visit, we’ll suggest what works.
Can you fit furniture to uneven walls?
That is normal in older homes, and it’s what scribing is for. We scribe the edges to follow the wall and set the furniture level on adjustable feet or a plinth.
Do I need to be at home on fitting day?
We need access, so someone has to let us in. After that, you don’t need to stay in the room, though we like to go over the furniture with you at the end.
Can the fitting be on a Saturday?
Yes, we can arrange Saturdays. Let us know when you first get in touch, and we’ll see what we can do.
Do you work in Greenwich?
Yes. We work across Greenwich.
How long does it take to fit a home office?
The time the fitting takes depends on how much desk, shelving and storage you want, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote. Every part is made at our workshop before we arrive. Saturday fitting is possible by arrangement.
Do I need planning permission for fitted furniture?
Not normally. Conservation area controls are largely about how buildings look from outside, and furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need it. In a listed building, check with the council’s conservation officer before any work.
