Sound familiar?

Built for quoting work that's never the same twice

When every piece is bespoke, quoting means drawings, cutting lists, machine time and finishing — all priced by hand. That's where the evenings and the margin go.

Time lost to quoting admin

Bespoke work shouldn't mean starting every quote from a blank sheet.

Every job is custom — no two quotes start the same
Cutting lists, CNC time and finishing all worked out by hand
Evenings spent turning drawings and survey notes into numbers
Designers and main contractors chasing while the quote sits half-done

Profit lost through missed details

In a workshop, the margin hides in the lines that never make it onto the quote.

Waste and offcuts not built into the sheet and timber count
Spray-shop time, coats and curing underpriced
Hardware and ironmongery left off the list
Remakes and tight tolerances quietly eating the job

Nothing missed

Build quotes with the details that protect your margin

Materials & veneers

Sheet materials, solid timber, veneers and laminates — with yield and offcuts, not just the net sizes.

Machining & CNC time

CNC, edge banding, lamination and bench time priced per operation, not guessed as a lump.

Finishing & spraying

Coats, sheen, spray-shop time and curing — in the price, not absorbed.

Hardware & ironmongery

Hinges, runners, handles, fittings and fixings — counted before they're bought.

Drawings & templates

Survey, workshop drawings and templating time on their own lines.

Delivery & install
