Made to measure for Rutland
Furniture built for the way Oakham homes are actually built
Rutland has very little standard housing. One street gives you an ironstone cottage with thick walls and a ceiling that drops under the eaves; the next gives you a recent build off Barleythorpe Road with a builder-standard kitchen crying out for proper drawers. Flat-pack sizing struggles with both.
Because we manufacture rather than resell, we start with your room instead of a catalogue. Cabinets are cut to the millimetre, end panels are scribed to walls that are rarely straight, and awkward corners, chimney breasts, deep window reveals and sloping ceilings become usable storage instead of dead space.
We work right across LE15, from the town centre and the Oakham School catchment out to the villages ringing Rutland Water.
Distance
25 miles from workshop to door
Oakham is roughly 40 minutes from our Peterborough workshop via the A47 and A606, so surveys, deliveries and any aftercare visits are straightforward rather than a logistical exercise.
Lead time
2–6 weeks from design sign-off
Manufacturing in-house means we are not queuing behind a third-party supplier, so most Oakham projects move from approved drawings to installation faster than a national chain can offer.
One team
Designed, made and fitted by ABJ
The same company measures, draws, manufactures and installs. There is no handover to a subcontracted fitting network, and one point of contact stays with you from survey to handover.

Country walks and Rutland Water weekends bring mud indoors. We build bench seating, welly and coat storage and closed cupboards that hide it. From £1,200.
Explore hallwaysAlso fitted in Oakham: quartz & granite worktops, bathroom cabinetry, home offices, upholstered beds & headboards and HMO refurbishments.
Local property types
Six kinds of Oakham home, six very different briefs
The right answer for a Grade II cottage near the Market Place is not the right answer for a new build in Barleythorpe. Here is how we approach the properties we see most often around Oakham.
Period
Ironstone & limestone cottages
Uneven walls, low beams and deep reveals. We survey to the millimetre, scribe panels to the plaster and keep cabinet heights sympathetic to the ceiling, so nothing looks forced into a room that predates it by centuries.
Town centre
Terraces & townhouses
Narrow galley kitchens near the town centre benefit from full-height storage, slimline appliance housings and pale, light-reflective fronts. We plan delivery and access around tight lanes and limited parking.
New build
Barleythorpe & modern estates
Developer kitchens are rarely short of cupboards and always short of drawers. We replace or extend them with deep pan drawers, island seating and wardrobes that use the full ceiling height.
Rural
Barn conversions & farmhouses
Large open-plan rooms need furniture with presence. Islands, tall banks, boot rooms and utility runs are designed to hold their own against exposed timber and generous floor areas.
Lettings
Rutland Water holiday lets
Fast turnarounds need hard-wearing surfaces, robust hinges and finishes that survive constant use. We specify for durability and install to a fixed programme between bookings.
Family
Homes near Oakham School
Sports kit, instruments, uniforms and homework all need somewhere to live. A boot room, utility storage and a proper study corner usually do more for daily life than another wall unit.

Oakham questions
Fitted kitchens and bedrooms in Oakham: your questions answered
Yes. Oakham is roughly 25 miles from our Peterborough workshop, about 40 minutes via the A47 and A606, well inside our 80-mile installation radius. We cover the whole of LE15, including Uppingham, Langham, Barleythorpe, Cottesmore, Empingham, Whissendine, Exton and the villages around Rutland Water.
Yes, and there is no obligation. A designer visits your home, measures the room and discusses storage, style, appliances and budget. Most projects include 3D visuals so you can see the layout before anything is manufactured, and no deposit is taken at that stage.
Yes. Made-to-measure furniture suits older Rutland homes, where walls lean, floors fall away and ceilings drop under the eaves. We scribe end panels to the wall, adjust plinths to uneven floors and design around beams and deep reveals. If your property is listed or sits in a conservation area, consents go through Rutland County Council and we work to what your consent allows.
As a guide, a straightforward fitted kitchen starts from around £5,000, while larger kitchens with premium worktops and integrated appliances cost more. Wardrobes start from around £1,400 and media walls from around £1,000. You receive an itemised quotation after your survey.
Most projects move from approved design to installation in two to six weeks, because we manufacture in-house rather than ordering from a third party. Installation takes a few days for wardrobes or a media wall, and longer for a full kitchen involving plumbing, electrics and worktop templating.
Yes. Our showroom and workshop are at 3 Brassey Close, Peterborough, PE1 2AZ, around 40 minutes from Oakham, where you can see finishes, hardware and construction in person. Please call 01733 686767 ahead so a designer is free when you arrive.
Yes. We work with landlords and holiday-let owners on durable, repeatable furniture packages, and run a separate HMO renovation service. Installation can be scheduled around bookings or void periods to keep lost nights to a minimum.
Furniture we manufacture carries a 10-year manufacturer guarantee covering defects in materials and workmanship. Appliances, worktops and third-party components carry their own warranties, all confirmed in writing with your quotation.
