Keys in sight? You're on the home straight.

You've bought the house. We'll get you home.

A new-build is handed over bare: no blinds, no curtains, often no carpet, a garden of mud. We measure from your plot plans and fit the lot in the week you get your keys, so day one feels like home and not a building site.

What we do

Everything the builder leaves out.

Pick one thing or the whole house. Tick what you want on our package builder and we'll send one fixed quote for the lot.

Blinds, curtains & shutters

Made to measure for your house type, including bi-folds and bays. Blackout for bedrooms, child-safe throughout.

Carpets & flooring

Carpet, luxury vinyl tile and laminate, with the right underlay for underfloor heating and new screeds.

Finishing touches

TVs mounted, mirrors and pictures hung, light fittings swapped and bathroom accessories fitted.

Smart home & security

Video doorbells and smart thermostats, supplied, fitted and set up on your phone before we leave.

Gardens & outdoors

Outside taps, outdoor sockets and EV chargers, so the outside is ready too.

Move-in essentials

Duvets, pillows, bed linen, towels and a kitchen starter pack, made up and waiting on your first night.

Seen in the showhome

Liked what you saw on your viewing? Have it in your plot.

We dress showhomes on new developments across Sussex. We already hold the measurements and specification for that house type, so we can fit the same look, or your own take on it.

  • Tell us the development and plot number; we quote from the plans before the walls are up.
  • We re-measure on site before completion, so nothing is ordered on guesswork.
  • We work around your completion date, even when it moves.

Keys on Friday. Curtains up, carpets down, beds made by Saturday.

How it works

Four steps down the home straight.

When you reserve

Tell us your plot

Build a package online or talk it through with us at home or at the showhome.

Within 48 hours

Fixed quote

One itemised price for everything you've ticked. Nothing to pay until you're happy.

Before completion

Check measure

We confirm every window and room on site, then put your order into production.

Completion week

Home

Flooring first, then windows, fittings and the finishing touches. We take all the packaging away.

For housebuilders & sales teams

We'll fit out your showhome. No charge.

A showhome sells better dressed. We supply and fit blinds, curtains, flooring and finishing details to your interior designer's scheme, at our cost, and keep them looking sharp for as long as the showhome is open.

In return we ask for one thing: a discreet introduction to your buyers, so they know who can make their plot look the same.

Your buyers
Move into a finished home: happier completions, fewer move-in-week frustrations.
Your sales team
A ready answer to “who did the blinds?”, and a move-in package to offer as an incentive.
Your site
Insured fitters who book in with the site manager and work to your handover programme.
Your budget
Nothing to pay for the showhome fit-out, maintenance visits included.

Build your package

Tell us your plot. Pick a room at a time.

Choose your developer and plot and we load the rooms in your house type with guide prices for carpets, blinds and curtains, supplied and fitted.

About these prices. Everything here is a guideline based on the typical layout of your house type. Once you send your list we arrange a site visit, bring samples so you can see and feel the options, and take final measurements. We don't expect the figures to move much, but your fixed price is only confirmed after that visit, and nothing is ordered until you're happy with it.
