About Us
Melin-y-Derw creates exceptional bespoke furniture for every room in the home and office with experience dating back to 1975. The portfolio of work undertaken is limitless from kitchen furniture with complementary interior doors and skirting boards, freestanding furniture, including Dining room tables and chairs. In fact we can make just about anything using quality hardwoods.
Our designs create a stunning visual impact, are made by experienced craftsmen, and are tailored to the customer’s requirements. Without doubt, commissioning a bespoke piece of furniture is by far the best way to create furniture which is unique and a pleasure to have in your home.
What sets Melin-y-Derw apart from other companies? We take pride in both the quality of our furniture and the personal service we offer. It does not take long to appreciate how well made our furniture is. We strive to achieve complete customer satisfaction throughout the process, from design to installation.
The Process
The first stage will be a tour of our showrooms, and workshops to get a deeper understanding of how our furniture is made. Next a consultation with a professional designer, together we can explore and discuss design concepts and your requirements. This personal service can also provide further insight into how the furniture is created.
The next stage is to create design proposals with the use of technical drawings to aid you in visualising and understanding these ideas. These will then be discussed and developed.
Clients sometimes have a clear idea of their requirements from the beginning; however often we may suggest an idea that would not originally have occurred to them. It's our job to help people realise the potential of a design concept and how it can be applied.
It is important that you are able to understand and visualize these ideas. Once a final design and price has been agreed upon, the making process begins. You would be encouraged to visit the workshops to see your commission being made.
Your commission is then built by experienced craftsmen, who are passionate and conscientious with their work. They work to the highest standards from the initial stages in our workshops using state of the art machinery, through to installation on site. We use quality hardwoods, and unlike other companies can also create our own handles.
The company employs some of the finest craftsmen in the industry, with an exceptional ability to make furniture to the highest quality and design. Gordon Wide, workshop manager and cabinetmaker with over 30 years’ experience says:
Every job is different and always a challenge. We take enormous pride in what we do and enjoy working with the customers on their project and have great satisfaction in seeing the finished end results
At Melin-Y-Derw we are committed to creating furniture that will not only be an investment for the customer, but will be admired and treasured for many years to come. The company strives for complete customer satisfaction and takes pride in the fact that our customers return to us with new projects.
