Aftercare

A lasting relationship beyond handover

Make Bespoke Studio remains available to clients after installation is complete. We provide a snagging period following handover during which any minor defects or adjustments are resolved without charge. For ongoing maintenance, we offer scheduled service visits and reactive call-outs.

Bespoke joinery and furniture is an investment. Our aftercare service is designed to protect that investment, whether that means adjusting doors after a building settles, refreshing a lacquer finish, re-upholstering a seat, or replacing a worn component years after the original installation.

03
Scheduled Maintenance

Annual or bi-annual service visits to inspect, clean and adjust joinery, hardware and upholstery as needed.

04
Reactive Call-Outs

Prompt response to damage, wear or operational issues, from hardware replacement to finish touch-ups.

05
Refurbishment

Partial or full refurbishment of existing pieces: re-lacquering, re-upholstering, or structural repair as required.

In Detail

Built to be maintained

Everything we make is designed for its second decade: lacquer that can be locally re-polished, upholstery built for re-covering, joinery with replaceable panels and serviceable hardware. Aftercare starts at the drawing stage — a piece that cannot be repaired was specified wrong, not damaged wrong.

What aftercare covers

The project record

Every commission closes with its record on file: approved samples, finish recipes, hardware references and drawings. Years later, that record is what lets us match a finish exactly or extend a piece invisibly — the quiet advantage of commissioning from a studio that keeps its archives.
