Working in York: what we plan for
York St John and the University of York drive seasonal rental turnover; the city is also one of the UK's busiest tourist destinations. Local property mix: Listed Georgian and Edwardian stock inside the city walls, with newer family housing in Fulford and Heworth. Many central properties are conservation-area.
Sensitive cleaning on period stock
Period properties need a slightly gentler touch — original sash windows, lime-plaster walls, lath-and-plaster ceilings and softwood floorboards don't behave like modern equivalents. We use lower-pressure techniques in old kitchens and bathrooms, and we know which finishes (e.g. shellac on a Georgian banister) shouldn't see modern solvents. On handyman jobs we use timber-fixings on lath-and-plaster ceilings rather than plasterboard plugs.
What's included
Wardrobes vary hugely — flat-pack swings, sliding-door PAX, fitted carcassing. We assemble all of them, square and anti-tip anchored.
- Flat-pack and sliding wardrobes
- Anti-tip wall fixing
- Door and drawer alignment
- Mirror panel fitting
How we deliver this in York
- 1Build carcass square on its back.
- 2Stand, level, anchor to wall before fitting doors.
- 3Fit doors (sliders track first, then panels). (In York specifically: York's medieval centre has a strict footstreets scheme — vehicle access is timed and tightly controlled.)
- 4Adjust drawer runners and dampers.
What affects the quote
We don't publish a per-job price because every property and access situation in York is different. These are the factors our quoting team weighs.
- Carcass size
- Door type (swing, sliding, mirrored)
- Interior fittings
