About
Tailored Timberworks is a small, independent joinery business based in Bingham, Nottingham, working across the Vale of Belvoir and surrounding villages.
Run by owner Pete Clarke, Tailored Timberworks specialises in high-quality, bespoke domestic joinery, thoughtfully designed, carefully built, and made to last - focussing on small-to-medium scale residential projects, giving each job the time, care, and attention it deserves.
Whether you have a clear vision or just a feeling of what you’d like to improve in your home, Tailored Timberworks is here to help you explore the options and find a solution that fits your space, your budget, and your lifestyle.
Free initial consultation to discuss your project is standard. Optional pre-project CAD design is also available & cost-efficient - allowing you to see a plan of your proposal prior to build, ensuring it matches your vision, whilst also allowing accurate material costing and design planning.
Bespoke Services
Tailored Timberworks work across a range of custom joinery for both interior and exterior projects, with particular focus on the following areas.
I believe pricing should be clear, fair, and easy to understand.
Projects are simply and transparently priced using:
-
Materials at-cost + day rate (or half-day rate for smaller jobs)
Practical, hard-working spaces designed to keep everyday life organised without sacrificing style.
Custom-built media units, shelving, and feature walls, balancing function, storage, and clean design
High Quality Planed & Treated Oak, tailored to suit your home.
Turning awkward or unused space into smart storage, seating, panelled or partitioned
Contemporary timber features that define spaces while keeping light and flow.
Including doors, studwork, outdoor structures, and more specialised or one-off projects.
If your project doesn’t fit neatly into one of these categories, don't worry! - many of the best projects start that way.

Process
A Simple, Supportive Service
Not everyone feels comfortable picking up the phone or knowing exactly what they want from the outset. That’s why Tailored Timberworks is designed to offer a low-pressure, approachable first step.
1. Soft First Contact
You can get in touch via the website, email, Whatsapp or phone call - with as much or as little detail as you like. If you're not sure exactly what you need, we can talk solutions through so you can choose what option suits your needs best.
2. Project CAD Design (Optional)
For most project quotes I offer an optional, costed CAD* customer-focussed pre-design service.
Your project can be digitally modelled, helping visualise how the finished job will look. This helps you feel confident in your decisions, and helps avoid surprises or later rework. If a job goes ahead, this cost-effective stage can be deducted from the final job price. More details about this below.
*CAD: Computer-aided-design model
3. Build & Installation
Once the design and scope are agreed, I’ll schedule the work and build everything with care, precision, and respect for your home. Where possible, pre-cut & made parts of your job will be done off-site at our Workshop, to minimise waste maintain time efficiency.

FAQs
Do I need to know exactly what I want before getting in touch?
Not at all. Many customers come to me with a rough idea, a problem space, or simply a feeling that something isn’t working. Part of my role is helping you explore options and shape that idea into something practical and well-designed.
Do you only work on the services listed on the website?
No — those are just common project types. I regularly take on bespoke, one-off joinery and carpentry projects that don’t fit neatly into a category. If it’s domestic, non-structural, and design-led, it’s always worth asking.
What size projects do you take on?
I focus on small to medium domestic projects. This allows me to work safely, efficiently, and to a high standard as a one-person business. Large commercial or structural projects aren’t something I currently offer.
What is the CAD pre-design service?
The CAD pre-design service allows your project to be modelled and visualised before any work begins. It’s ideal if you want clarity, confidence, or help refining your ideas before committing to a full build.
Is the CAD service required?
No - it’s completely optional. Some smaller or simpler jobs don’t need it, while others benefit greatly from seeing the design in advance.
Is the design cost deducted if I go ahead?
In many cases, yes. If you proceed with the full project, the design fee can be discounted or deducted from the final price. This is always discussed upfront.
How do you price your work?
Most projects are priced based on materials at cost plus a day rate. Smaller jobs may be charged at an hourly rate or half-day rate. This keeps pricing transparent and flexible for bespoke work.
Do you work in lived-in homes?
Yes — most of my work is carried out in occupied homes. I work cleanly, respectfully, and with minimal disruption, and I’ll always discuss access, noise, and timings in advance.
