For Builders & Main Contractors

Reeve & Co is the joinery subcontractor main contractors call when the cabinetry, panelling and staircases have to be right and on time. We produce setting-out and production drawings from the issued design information, then make and install through one workshop and site team from survey to handover. Design responsibility remains with the appointed designer.

For builders & main contractors

One trade package. One point of responsibility.

On a high-end build, joinery is where the client runs their hand along the finish — and where a late or poorly-fitted package can hold up handover and put your name on the line.

Much joinery is split across several suppliers and coordinated on site at your cost and your risk. We remove that. Survey, CAD drawings and manufacture are handled in-house by our own makers, with installation by our site team — no gap between the people who draw it, make it and fit it, and a single number to call when you need an answer.

Built around your programme

We hit dates, and protect your handover

We work to your build sequence, give a clear lead time up front, and would rather agree a realistic programme than promise one we can’t protect. Drawings are resolved before site — full 2D and 3D CAD setting-out coordinated with M&E, structure and other trades, so clashes are found on paper, not on site.

Made in our workshop, fitted on site

Our site team. Clean, snagged installs.

Every commission is installed by our site team, scribed to the building, snagged and left clean. The same workshop, makers and furniture-grade finishes apply whether it’s a country house, a London townhouse or a commercial fit-out.

Do you work as a subcontractor under a main contract?

Yes — regularly, on high-end residential and commercial projects, including under JCT-based sub-contract forms, with the insurances, RAMS and documentation you expect.

Will you work to our programme?

Yes. We plan manufacture and installation around your build sequence, agree delivery and fit dates up front, and keep you informed at each stage.

Do you fit your own work?

Always. Installation is by our site team, which is why our installs are clean, accurate and snagged on handover.

What insurance and documentation do you carry?

Public liability insurance, RAMS, method statements and risk assessments as standard, and our site team works to your site induction and rules.

Questions we are asked

Frequently asked questions

Do you work as a joinery subcontractor to main contractors?

Yes. We design, make and fit bespoke joinery for main contractors on high-end residential and commercial projects, with the same project manager from first survey to handover.

Can you work to our programme?

Yes. We agree the programme with you once drawings are approved, and most commissions are delivered in 16 to 20 weeks. Some are quicker and some run over several years.

Who carries out the installation?

Our own site team, CSCS-carded for main-contractor sites and covered by full insurance for site work.

Do you take on work outside Suffolk?

Yes. Most of our work is in London and the Home Counties, and we work across the UK and in Europe by arrangement.
