Shelf fitting

A floating shelf in an alcove, or a whole wall of books. We’ll agree the height and spacing and check which fixings the wall needs.

A good shelf starts with the wall.

A shelf for paperbacks asks something different of a wall than a shelf for a trailing plant. Say what yours will hold and where you want it. The wall, shelf and brackets can then be checked together.

  • Floating and bracketed shelves
  • One shelf or a set at matching heights
  • Advice on position and suitable fixings
Measure the full length of the shelf.

Brick, plasterboard or something else? It’s fine if you’re unsure.

A few questions.

Do I need to know what my wall is made of?

No. Describe the room and the shelf. If a closer look at the wall would help, you can send a photo when we reply.

Can several shelves be fitted in one visit?

Yes. Send the number of shelves, their lengths and which walls they’ll go on so we can plan the visit.
