It is a small village with a disproportionate amount of difficult, interesting building stock: flint and brick cottages, substantial Victorian houses along the Reading Road, converted farm buildings on the downs above, and a handful of striking modern houses built into the hillside. We are fifteen minutes away over the bridge, so Streatley is well inside the area we cover from the Ipsden workshop. Being close matters in a village where lanes are narrow, driveways are short and the practical question of getting a two-metre carcass through a cottage door is a genuine design constraint rather than an afterthought. Most of the enquiries we get from Streatley involve making a period room work for modern life without stripping out its character, wardrobes in a cottage bedroom with a sloping ceiling, a media wall in a room with a working fireplace, panelling on a stairwell with no two walls parallel. That is joinery, not furniture assembly, and it starts with measuring the room honestly. ### Property types we work on in Streatley - Flint, brick and timber cottages Thick, irregular walls and low door heads. Units are built undersized and scribed, with fixings planned around whatever the wall actually turns out to be. - Victorian houses along the Reading Road Tall rooms, deep alcoves and original mouldings. Full-height alcove joinery and panelling suit these properties when the profiles are matched properly. - Converted barns and outbuildings Big volumes, exposed structure and few square corners. Freestanding-looking built-ins and bespoke storage walls work far better here than standard furniture. - Hillside modern houses Large glazed elevations and split levels. Clean-lined, sprayed joinery with concealed handles keeps the detailing consistent with the architecture. ### What Streatley homeowners ask us for most - Cottage bedroom storage: Wardrobes designed around low ceilings and beam lines, using every inch of a room that a freestanding unit would waste. - Alcove joinery either side of a fireplace: Cupboards and shelving measured separately left and right, because in Streatley houses the two alcoves are almost never the same. - Staircase and landing panelling: Panelling that follows a stair with inconsistent risers and out-of-parallel walls, set out so the eye reads it as regular. - Second fix after renovation: Doors, skirting, architrave and finishing carpentry to complete a refurbishment to the same standard as the structural work. ### Coverage at a glance AreaStreatley, Oxfordshire From workshopAbout 15 minutes from the Ipsden workshop, across the Goring bridge Site visitsSite visits typically within the same week QuotesFixed price, in writing within 72 hours Lead timeAround 6 weeks for bespoke work Insurance£2m public liability QualificationNVQ Level 2 carpentry & joinery HoursMon–Sun, 7:30am–5:00pm Book a free site visit ### Nearby areas we cover - Goring - Moulsford - WoodcoteSee every area we cover or go back to the homepage.

Nothing is assumed level, plumb or parallel until it is measured. - ### Designed, built and sprayed by us The furniture is drawn in CAD, made in our own workshop and finished in-house, so the person who measured it is the person accountable for how it fits. - ### Insured and qualified £2m public liability insurance, NVQ Level 2 carpentry and joinery, ten years in the trade. - Site visits typically within the same week - CAD drawings approved before anything is cut - £2m public liability · NVQ Level 2 qualified Local conditions ## Streatley-specific building issues we plan around Chalk downland on one side, the Thames on the other, and a village core of old, solid-walled buildings. Each of those puts a particular kind of pressure on joinery. ### Solid walls with no reliable fixing Flint, rubble and soft old brick do not take fixings the way modern blockwork does. A plug that grips one metre along the wall can spin freely the next, which is how fitted furniture ends up pulling away from a wall in a period cottage. We test fixings as we go and change method where needed, battened subframes, resin anchors, or transferring load to the floor rather than the wall. Where the wall is genuinely unreliable, the unit is designed to be self-supporting and simply restrained, not hung. ### Humidity swings near the river Streatley's riverside properties see real seasonal humidity change. Solid timber moves across the grain with it, and poorly specified board swells at unsealed edges. Material choice handles most of this: stable engineered cores where movement would show, solid timber only where it can move without opening a joint, and all edges sealed in the spray shop rather than left raw at the back. ### Low headroom and awkward carries Cottage doorways, tight stair turns and low beams mean a finished wardrobe carcass often physically cannot reach the bedroom in one piece. Discovering that on delivery day is an expensive mistake. Access is checked at the site visit and designed for in CAD. Units come in sections sized to clear the tightest point in the route and are assembled in the room. ### Older buildings with a mix of past repairs Many Streatley properties have been altered repeatedly: a Victorian rear addition on a Georgian core, a 1980s refit inside a much older shell. Floor levels change between rooms and skirting profiles change with them. Rather than pretend the building is consistent, we set out each room to its own datum and use deliberate transitions at thresholds. The finished work looks intentional instead of looking like it is fighting the house.

Questions ## Carpentry in Streatley: your questions answered Do you serve Streatley?CZ Bespoke Carpentry serves Streatley, around fifteen minutes from the Ipsden workshop and just across the bridge from Goring, so the village sits well inside our normal working area. How quickly can you get to Streatley?Site visits in Streatley are usually arranged within the same week, and because it is a short trip from the workshop we can call back during a job without disrupting the programme. What will fitted furniture cost in Streatley?Fitted furniture in Streatley varies in price with the size of the run, the internals and the finish, and period properties can add extra scribing time. A free site visit and a written fixed-price quote within 72 hours mean there are no moving numbers later. Do you do emergency call-outs in Streatley?CZ Bespoke Carpentry does not offer emergency call-outs in Streatley, since this is planned joinery work rather than a reactive trade, though we do work Monday to Sunday, 7:30am to 5:00pm. Anything urgent on a live job is still dealt with promptly. Can you work in a cottage with very low ceilings?CZ Bespoke Carpentry can work in Streatley cottages with very low ceilings, designing units to the actual heights and beam positions in the room and building them in sections that can physically get through cottage doors and stair turns. Can you match existing period skirting and architrave?CZ Bespoke Carpentry can match existing period skirting and architrave where it matters visually, running new trim to the existing profile, or setting new work apart with a clean, deliberate break rather than a near miss. How long does a Streatley project take?A bespoke fitted project in Streatley takes around six weeks from order, since the furniture is designed, built and sprayed before it comes to site, while second fix carpentry can usually start much sooner. Do you also cover Goring and Woodcote?Alongside Streatley, CZ Bespoke Carpentry covers Goring directly across the river, along with Woodcote, Moulsford, Cholsey and Wallingford. How do payments work?Payment for CZ Bespoke Carpentry work is made by bank transfer, with a deposit required only where a job needs materials bought up front. Still unsure?
