About Us
Why choose The Wirral Craftsman?
We design and build beautiful fitted furniture from the highest quality materials. Furniture that not only provides practical solutions, but furniture that looks stunning, enhances your home and stands the test of time. From relatively humble beginnings, lots of hard work and a passion for design and quality the business has steadily grown and is now based from our own purpose built workshop, allowing the precision of modern machinery to operate alongside more traditional joinery methods. We always select the best materials for each individual project, from classic timbers such as oak, walnut and maple to modern sheet materials available in a wide range of colours and finishes. Our belief in the core values of great design, customer satisfaction and an exacting attention to detail are very much the cornerstones of the business.
The Wirral Craftsman story -
Having been born and bred in Wirral, life and work eventually took us on a journey throughout the UK specifying and fitting-out luxury wide-beam canal boats, a journey that eventually saw us settle in a small town in Northamptonshire. A lifelong passion for woodworking lead to the creation of 'The Duston Craftsman' designing, making and fitting beautiful furniture for the local and surrounding areas. However, we never lost our love for Wirral and its people and thankfully family ties brought us home on a regular basis. It was this lifelong family connection with the peninsula that saw a natural progression to create The Wirral Craftsman working with a small trusted family team to provide the same beautiful high quality fitted furniture across Wirral. We may share a modern centrally located workshop with our 'Duston' counterpart but The Wirral Craftsman is very much a Wirral based and focused local family business.
We cover the entire Wirral peninsula and are more than happy to travel further afield into Cheshire, Merseyside & North Wales for the right project.

What our Customers Say
We contacted Richard when we were looking for fitted wardrobes. From the start he was great, nothing was too much trouble. He provided us with a lovely design and the price was in our budget. The wardrobes have now been fitted and we are delighted. Thank you.
Izzy & Carl F.
As part of a full house refurbishment we asked for a quote on fitting out a small library in one of the spare bedrooms. The quote was competitive and the final work was truly stunning. We definitely made the right choice. We are very happy customers.
Mrs M. Andrews
What a nice company to deal with, I honestly couldn't fault them. We have not long moved in a really didn't want any more stress! We needn't have worried as everyone we dealt with was so friendly and the quality is better than we could have hoped for. We will definitely use you again.
Sarah Scott-Willis
Having searched to find a company to design and build alcove units in our living room we found Richard and his team. What a find, they turned out to be so easy to deal with, fab design, lovely installer and to our delight no mess. Highly recommend by both of us.
Ginny & Keira
A really enjoyable experience from start to finish. We had a bespoke media wall designed from scratch, it really looks fabulous and it feels like a completely different room now. We are so glad that we listened to all the advice when choosing the final design and colour.
Gillian Muir
We commissioned a utility room for our new extension and new bespoke doors to the existing kitchen we had made a few years ago. The process was very professional and everyone was really patient whilst we settled on the design. The craftsmanship and quality is just wonderful.
J.M.
I needed a home office / study and wanted it fitted to make best use of the space available. The design was spot on and the finish and quality is great, which is what I wanted. I have passed your details on to some of my colleagues. Thank you.
Adam Gaskell
From the initial phone call with Richard to discuss what we wanted, a couple of really enjoyable site visits and being given a design that was perfect, we were completely comfortable all the way through. The fitting of our new wardrobes was on time and it was a pleasure having the fitter in the house. Thank you again to all involved.
Mary & Alex
We are genuinely delighted with our new fitted wardrobes. We have never had anything handmade before and are now complete converts. We are planning the next project already and will definitely be in touch. Thank you so much to Richard and the team x
