We install a lot of wardrobes and fitted furniture that is to end up painted. We don't pre paint any of our furniture in the workshop as the environment for it is not ideal.
We offer 2 options with our fitted wardrobes. Our most common option is we fit the furniture in a primed ready to paint board, when we leave you are left with a white finished piece that would need a cabinet painter or quality decorator to finish it with a top coat. They would seal and fill any joins or holes and then apply the top coat. Usually 2 coats, but some colours can require 3 or 4 coats. The second option, which does usually cost a little more is we send all the items to be painted to a specialist joinery spray paint shop, then once we fit your items they are in and finished. The sprayers can match the colours to any well known brands of paint, such as farrow and ball or little green. There is consideration for both options, one being price but also the type of furniture being fitted. We always suggest a traditional fitted wardrobe or alcove cabinet is more suitable to a hand painted finish, in keeping with the aesthetic of the item and often being fitted in a Victorian or Georgian home, this type of finish is more in keeping with the style of the home also.
