About This Service

Bespoke Furniture

Wilkins Wood Workers designs and builds fully bespoke furniture for homes, barns and farm settings across Gloucestershire. Each piece is measured on site, hand-built in our farm workshop by qualified joiners and finished with traditional joinery details. We focus on durable timber choices and practical joinery that suit period cottages, new builds and agricultural conversions. Aftercare visits and re-finishing keep your furniture performing for years.

Bespoke Furniture
Our Process

How It Works

01

Site survey & measure

We visit your home or barn, discuss layout and use, take detailed measurements and record access, timber preferences and finish options.

02

Design & workshop build

We produce simple drawings and confirm materials, then handcraft the piece in our farm workshop using traditional joints and robust construction.

03

Delivery, install & aftercare

We install on site, carry out final finishing (oiling or hardwax), and schedule follow-up visits for re-finishing or minor adjustments if needed.

Benefits

Why Choose us for Bespoke Furniture?

Truly bespoke, made-to-measure work

Every item is designed for your space — from fitted wardrobes for a Stroud cottage to farmhouse dining tables — with joinery details that last.

Family-run, local continuity

A small team operating from our Gloucestershire farm means direct contact with the craftsmen who build your piece and continuity of service.

Finish & aftercare you can rely on

On-site oiling, re-finishing visits and a clear aftercare plan protect your timber investment; public liability cover to £5 million gives extra reassurance.

Handcrafted joinery from sketch to siting. We specialise in made-to-measure timber furniture tailored for Gloucestershire homes, barns and farm conversions — dining tables, fitted cupboards, wardrobes, benches and bespoke items. Materials are chosen to suit the building: quarter-sawn oak for traditional cottages, softwood or reclaimed boards for a rustic feel, and engineered components where stability is required. Our workshop processes include accurate carcass construction, traditional joints such as dovetails and mortise & tenon where appropriate, and careful sanding and gluing to ensure longevity.

Practical finishes and local delivery. We apply oil or hardwax finishes in the workshop and on site so timber performs in real-life conditions. Every project comes with simple drawings for approval, a clear timeline, and aftercare options — including re-oiling and minor repairs — carried out by the same team that made the piece. We work across Gloucestershire, including Stroud, Stonehouse and Cheltenham, and we prioritise good access, careful site protection and a tidy installation.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Times vary depending on size, materials and current workload. Simple bedside tables can be turned around quicker, while fitted runs or large dining tables require full site measuring, workshop build and on-site finishing. We’ll give an estimated lead time at the site survey and confirm a delivery window before work begins.

Key factors are timber species, complexity of joinery, size, hardware (hinges, runners) and on-site installation requirements. Access to the room and any preparatory work also influence cost. We provide a detailed quote after the site visit so you can see where costs come from.

For longevity and classic looks we recommend oak or mixed hardwoods; for a lighter, more rustic finish we use softwood or reclaimed boards. Finishes include natural oils and hardwax which are sympathetic to farmhouse settings and simple to maintain. We’ll advise on the best option for your room’s humidity and use.

Yes. We measure accurately and plan lifts and routes before manufacture. For narrow staircases or listed properties we design parts for reassembly on site to minimise disruption and protect existing finishes.

We provide on-site finishing after installation and scheduled follow-up visits for re-oiling or minor adjustments. If any defects arise from installation or materials, we arrange repairs. Our workmanship is backed by our team’s NVQ training and public liability cover up to £5 million.
