Making Handmade, Hand Crafted Bespoke Fitted Furniture

Built on Recommendation

Your Project

We take time to meet our clients, to listen to what you want, and to design furniture to meet your brief.  We take careful measurements, make hand drawn plans and offer practical advice and inspiring solutions  to make sure that everything will be just right for you.

Good workmanship in both making and fitting ensures satisfaction. Oh, and we like to leave tidily too.

Our Furniture

Our handmade furniture is unique, timeless, practical and durable.   An effortless combination of simplicity and elegance that helps to create a comfortable and relaxing home.

High quality workmanship and a traditional, considerate customer service should not be at the expense of good value for money.

Our Portfolio

After over 30 years of making handmade furniture, we’ve amassed a treasure trove of photos and design ideas of the furniture we’ve made for your beautiful homes.

Take a peek and be inspired. And keep popping back, there’s more coming on line all the time.

Kitchens

Whether it’s renewing an old well used kitchen, a empty space or an inherited but not desirable design following a house move, the  transformation of the new kitchen coming together  is always exciting and inspiring.

Each of our kitchens is bespoke.  It’s built and painted by hand to a ‘one off’ design, functional without compromising on style.   It has to be hardworking, maximise utility and space, as well as a place in which you can switch off and relax.   By listening to you, our kitchens meet the needs of your household.

You may know exactly what you want down to specifics – a larder shelf that will fit your favorite cereal boxes for instance. Or you might have a vague notion of what you want but need some direction and with over twenty years experience Peter can provide plenty of ideas.   We aim to inspire whatever your starting point.

About Us

A trained, professional cabinet maker based in Hexham, Peter Dunham has over 30 years experience specialising in  designing and making handmade fitted furniture such as kitchens, alcove cupboards, wardrobes, bookcases and home offices.

Founded in an old stable in the rural Leicestershire, he and his family returned to the North East in 2003, setting up the present workshop in Hexham, Northumberland.  Over 10 years later, however we are pleased to say that still receive calls from clients in Leicestershire who want us to return to build more wardrobes, alcove cupboards, kitchens etc for them.

It’s a friendly, growing  family business, with an expanding workforce that also draws upon the best local tradesmen we can find when required.   Now tucked away on the very pleasant Haugh Lane Industrial Estate in Hexham, Peter and his team take pride in both making and fitting beautiful furniture across the region as well as supporting the local economy.

Building everything by hand to an agreed design, Peter has the experience, versatility and a great eye for design and detail.  With a traditional approach to service, and a high level of workmanship, Peter creates timeless classics by ensuring that they are sympathetic to the period of your home.

The majority of Peters projects are based locally, in the north of England: Northumberland, Co. Durham, Cumbria and of course, working in Newcastle upon Tyne, Carlisle, Durham, Hexham and Alnwick .  This hasn’t stopped Peter from working, the length and breadth of the country on request, from the remotest shores of Mull of Kintyre, the hustle and bustle of Pimlico, to the quaint thatches in the village of Georgeham in Devon.

What others say about us

An enormous “thank you” for all the care and craftsmanship which you have put into the creation of my dream kitchen- and beyond!

Dear Peter, Many thanks for another wonderful job. You took our very simple idea and moved it onto something far, far better.  We love it.  Very best wishes.

The Wardrobes are gorgeous!!!! Everyone is admiring them and I love them.

Peter is brilliant – a master at work. Perfect colour and a really neat fit. I like them so much that I am going to do the study at the end of next year.

Thanks again for a brilliant service.

We are very happy with our bookshelves.  The quality and craftsmanship is superb and everyone that visits comments on how lovely they are.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Peter Dunham and will definitely be using him again in future.
