UK-wide install Our own team delivers and installs Crib 5 Contract compliance documented Own team No third-party couriers or franchises £5M insured For on-site commercial work Local challenges ## Common South England furniture issues we're asked to fix Contract furniture across South England is under heavy daily use in a wide range of buildings, from listed period frontages to new commercial builds. These are the briefs we see repeatedly. ### Coastal salt-air corrosion Hotels along the south coast see fixings corrode and metal frames pit within a few seasons. We spec stainless or powder-coated fittings and marine-suitable fabrics. ### Listed and Georgian frontages Bath, Brighton and Canterbury frontages often need sectional builds and careful on-site joining. ### Seasonal hospitality peaks Coastal and university-town venues see intense seasonal covers. We rebuild to Crib 5 and contract foam density so seating survives full seasons. ### Thames Valley office refresh cycles Corporate estates around Reading, Guildford and Woking refresh regularly; we manufacture short bespoke runs to match brand specification. Our process ## Simple to start. Precise to finish. 01 ### Enquiry & Brief Send us drawings, mood boards or a photo of the South England space. We respond quickly. 02 ### Design & Free Quote We spec materials, fabric and finish, and issue a free, itemised quote. 03 ### Site Survey We visit the South England site to measure, template and confirm access. 04 ### Manufacture & Upholstery Made in our Norwich workshop to Crib 5 standard using contract fabrics. 05 ### Delivery & Install Delivered and installed in South England by our own team, scheduled around your trading hours.
