Cupboards, flooring and fittings for Somerset West homes
Somerset West sits further out from Cape Town’s city centre, in the Helderberg basin, and the housing reflects that distance: bigger stands, more double-storey freestanding houses, and a mix of an older town centre with newer estate development further out. Gardens tend to be larger too, which usually means a garage, scullery or laundry that needs its own storage plan, not just the kitchen and bedrooms.
We travel out to Somerset West regularly, so distance from the city isn’t a reason to put a job off. We quote the same way we would for any suburb closer in. Older sections of the town have their own character too, with houses that have been added onto or renovated over the years, so cupboards and floors don’t always meet at a perfectly standard size or angle.
Our services in Somerset West
Kitchen cupboards
Bigger Somerset West homes often have a separate scullery alongside the main kitchen, which changes how we plan storage. We fit kitchen cupboards across both spaces so appliances, crockery and pantry items each have a sensible home.
Laminate flooring
With more rooms to cover in a typical Somerset West house, laminate flooring is a practical way to get a consistent look through passages and bedrooms without the cost of tiling everything.
Bedroom cupboards
Double-storey homes in Somerset West often have several bedrooms needing built-in storage, sometimes all at once if you’re renovating before a family grows into the space. Our bedroom cupboards are built to match across rooms if that’s what you want, or to suit each room differently.
Free-standing cupboards
Garages and double garages are common here, and they’re often used for more than just the car: workshop tools, sports gear, overflow storage. A free-standing cupboard is a straightforward way to keep that organised.
Doors and lock fitting
Bigger homes mean more doors and locks to maintain. Our door installation and lock fitting service covers everything from a single sticking door to replacing locks through a whole house.
DIY cupboards
If you’ve bought flat-pack cupboards for a garage or scullery, our DIY cupboard assembly service builds and fits them so they’re level and properly secured, not just held together by the flimsy fittings that come in the box.
Plumbing
A separate scullery or laundry usually means extra plumbing points for a second sink, dishwasher or washing machine. Our plumbing service handles that as part of the same booking.

Common questions from Somerset West homeowners
Do you charge extra to travel out to Somerset West?
We factor travel into the quote like we would for any suburb. Ask us directly if you want that broken out separately.
Can you do a whole house at once, or does it need to be room by room?
Either works. Some homeowners prefer one big job; others spread it over a few months. We’ll plan around what suits your budget and household.
We have a separate scullery. Do you plan that as part of the kitchen quote?
Yes, we look at the kitchen and scullery together so storage and plumbing make sense across both spaces, rather than quoting them as unrelated jobs.
Can you build matching cupboards for a garage workshop?
Yes, we build free-standing or fitted units for garages too, sized around what you actually store, whether that’s tools, sports equipment or general overflow.
Our house has been extended over the years and nothing lines up perfectly. Is that a problem?
No, we see this often in older parts of Somerset West. We measure each room on its own rather than assuming standard dimensions, so the fit is right even if the walls aren’t perfectly square.
