Services
We specialise in fantastical bookcases and home libraries as it was our passion for stories that Legion Carvings was built on. However at our core, we are a joinery company, and we offer a full range of services; anything from fitting a kitchen door, to full media walls in the living room, or bespoke DnD tables for games night! If you're based in the UK and looking for a reliable, independent joiner, send us a message and let's chat!
Wall-hanging book cubbies
Consider these our fun-size bookcase alternatives! These book cubbies are smaller versions of our full-size bookcases, they are designed to wall-mount to maximise space, and you can add more over time! These are available in two sizes; 600x620mm or 620x900mm, with your choice of bookend design and colour. If this is what you’re looking for, we would book a facetime appointment with you to discuss your options, and we can show you our display models so you get a better idea of how they would look in your own home! If you are happy to go ahead, we would email your invoice - payable immediately. The estimated build time is approximately two weeks from payment, and upon completion your mini bookcase will be delivered via courier. All necessary fixings required to wall mount the cubbies are included in the price and dispatched with the item. We additionally offer support via Facetime if you would like any advice or guidance when it comes to the installation, just let us know!
The prices for our book cubbies are;
600x620mm - £600
620x900mm -£700
Standalone bookcases
These are free standing bookcases with the option to choose your own custom details (bookend carvings, woodstain colour) and sized to your requirements. For a standalone bookcase, we would schedule a facetime appointment to discuss size and optional customisations, we would then email you a fixed quote, if you are happy to go ahead we would email you the invoice, with a 25% deposit payable immediately and the remainder payable upon delivery. Our estimated build time is one month from the date of the deposit being received, and during this periodwe will check-in with you over facetime to show you your build in progress and arrange a date with yourselves to deliver your new bookcase. Upon delivery we will fix your bookcase to the desired wall so you know it’s safe.This service is included in our quote.
Bespoke fitted builds
These are fully custom built to your specifications, so you can be assured they fit your home perfectly. Your choice of details, wood stains, size and shape!
We would have an initial appointment over facetime, talk through your ideas and rough sizes, you would also need to show us the space you intend on fitting the bookcase. After our call, we would draw up a design and email it over alongside a fixed quote. If you choose to go ahead, we then email your invoice, and you pay a 25% deposit immediately. We then schedule a home visit with you to go over the design and details in person and take the all important measurements. Our build time for a custom build can vary based on size and design, but rest assured, once we have agreed a design on the home visit, we will be able to give you a timeline. Halfway through our build, we will check in over facetime so you can see the work in progress, and we can arrange a final appointment to deliver your new bookcase. We include fitting in our initial cost, so you don’t need to worry about any of the heavy lifting! The remainder of the payment is payable upon delivery and fitting.
We value honesty and transparency, so we have included a rough outline of prices below so you have a loose idea of what to expect! With over 20 years joinery experience, specialising in traditional solid oak with hand-carved details, our prices reflect the time, technique and experience that shapes each build. We are family operated and we want the whole experience working with us to feel relaxed and easy, we prefer facetime appointments to phone calls so you know exactly who you are dealing with, and our all quotes include delivery. We see each project through to the end, no detail left forgotten. We want to leave you with a piece of furniture that not only fits your home perfectly but also feels like a little piece of YOU. You’re a part of the design process from start to finish; we are simply the tools that make your ideas come to life.
