Sister workshop

Selection Works — the 2VP joinery workshop. Designs, makes and finishes premium kitchens, wardrobes and bespoke joinery for London homes. Same Fulham office as 2VP, same WhatsApp, same Vladimir on the phone. We stack the workshop, the build crew and the design partnership under one fixed-price contract so there is no hand-off, no markup chain, no “the joiner blamed the builder”.

Why most bespoke kitchens go wrong

Three things every homeowner fears. Three things we do differently.

London homeowners have been burned twice on bespoke joinery: the workshop blames the builder, the builder blames the workshop, and the homeowner pays for both. Selection Works + 2VP exist to remove that gap.

Fear 01 · Lead-time slip

“The joinery is 6 weeks late and the kitchen is unusable.”

Workshops that sub-contract polishing, painting and worktop templating to three other suppliers are the ones that slip. Selection Works does it all in-house.

Our fix: 8–12 weeks, written into your contract programme. Late = our cost, not yours.
Fear 02 · Hand-off blame

“The joiner says the builder built the wall wrong. The builder says the joiner measured wrong.”

This is the No. 1 reason bespoke joinery projects go to mediation in London. It only happens when there are two contracts.

Our fix: one contract. 2VP measures the wall, Selection Works builds to it, 2VP installs. Same company.
Fear 03 · Finish doesn’t match the photo

“The paint is wrong, the grain is wrong, the handle is too gold.”

Photographs lie about colour. Swatches lie about scale. The only honest test is a real piece in your real light.

Our fix: £40 sample pieces — the actual front, in the actual finish, with the actual handle — before you sign off.
Two-minute kitchen calculator

Get a London-zoned kitchen number. Before anyone calls.

Move three sliders — size, finish tier, hardware — and the calculator returns an honest range based on real Selection Works projects. Then we send a £40 sample box and an email summary. You don’t have to give us your phone number.

What 2VP handles

You sign once. We carry the chain.

A bespoke joinery package on a London home typically pulls in a designer, a workshop, a fitter, an electrician for integrated lighting, a stone-mason for the worktop, and a project manager to coordinate them. On a 2VP project, that’s one company — us — with one number, one contract, and one warranty.

01

Survey & design

On-site measure with your named PM. CAD elevations and 3D visuals from the Selection Works design team, signed off in writing before any timber is cut.

02

Sample & sign-off

£40 sample pieces in the exact front, finish and handle you chose. Ironmongery, hinges and worktop sample. Signed-off on a written spec before order placed.

03

Make & deliver

8–12 weeks in the Selection Works workshop — carcassing, painting, hardware, worktop templating — then delivered in sequence with the rest of the build, not before the wall is plastered.

04

Install & warranty

Installed by 2VP’s own crew. Covered by the 12-month workmanship warranty plus manufacturer cover on hinges, runners and worktops. One number to call. Vladimir’s.

Common questions

Joinery questions, answered straight.

What is the lead time on a bespoke kitchen?+
8 to 12 weeks from final survey and signed-off drawings to install. Standard handleless and laminate kitchens land at 8 weeks; in-frame painted with island and larder typically take 10–12. The lead time is sequenced into your build programme — the units arrive on the day the site is ready, not a week before or three weeks after.
How much does a bespoke kitchen in London cost?+
Selection Works kitchens start at £18,000 for a small handleless layout in laminate or grooved MDF, run typical at £25,000–£45,000 for a painted shaker or slab kitchen with island, and reach £60,000+ for a large in-frame painted kitchen with full ironmongery, larder, integrated appliances and stone worktop. Use the kitchen calculator for a London-zoned range in 60 seconds.
Is the joinery part of the 2VP fixed-price contract or quoted separately?+
Inside. Every 2VP fixed-price quote includes joinery at full spec — carcasses, fronts, finishes, hardware, worktops, integrated appliances and install. No PC sums, no “to be confirmed”. If you upgrade the spec mid-project, our QS issues a written change order before any extra cost is incurred.
Can I order joinery from Selection Works without using 2VP for the build?+
Yes. Selection Works is its own brand and supplies handmade kitchens, fitted wardrobes and bespoke joinery as a standalone product to homeowners, designers and other contractors across London. The 2VP route adds the structural, electrical, plumbing, decoration and finishing trades under one fixed-price contract.
What materials and finishes are available?+
Front options: laminated finishes, grooved or painted MDF, solid timber (oak, walnut, ash, maple), stone-effect, and leather or fabric panels. Hardware ranges from recessed timber pulls to brass, bronze, black, red and chrome metal pulls — or your own client-supplied ironmongery integrated seamlessly. £40 sample pieces are sent in the exact front, finish and handle before sign-off.
Do you handle the install, or just supply the units?+
Both. Selection Works fabricates and delivers. 2VP installs with our own crew and our PM on site for the first day. The joinery is covered by a 12-month workmanship warranty from 2VP plus manufacturer cover on hinges, drawer runners and worktops. One number to call. Vladimir’s.
Can you match the rest of my house? Cornices, skirtings, period detail?+
Yes. Period match is the reason most of our clients come to us instead of a high-street brand. We site-measure your existing cornice, architrave and skirting profile, and design the new joinery to read as part of the building — same shadow line, same paint code, same proportion. Fitted joinery in a Victorian terrace should not look like an IKEA wardrobe.
What if a panel arrives damaged or measured wrong?+
It’s our problem, not yours. Because the joinery is part of the JCT contract, any remake, re-survey or re-install is on us — including the programme impact. That’s the difference between buying joinery through 2VP and buying it directly: the risk of a wrong measurement sits with the contractor, not the homeowner.
