We work with hotels, restaurants and contractors on larger schemes that require Childs & Co pieces designed and manufactured exclusively for their projects.
Our workshop on the edge of the beautiful lake district uses a combination of traditional woodworking techniques alongside more modern manufacturing methods, including our CNC facility. In addition to our own range of products, we are also commissioned to produce bespoke products for Interior Designers, Architects, Sculptors & Private Clients looking for a partner with expertise & materials to realise their ideas.
