SERVICES — HOW WE HELP

Four ways to help. One workshop.

From the first sketch to the finished piece, LUMA takes an idea through design, machining, fabrication and finishing under one roof.

THE FULL JOB

Built for the whole job, not part of it.

Every job has a shape: what it is for, what it is made from, how it is finished and how it gets to you. LUMA works across that whole span, so nothing is handed off half-done.

We work with businesses that need a component or a fabricated solution, tradespeople who need the right equipment for a week, and people with an idea they want help developing. The services below work together or on their own.

OUR CAPABILITIES

Five services. Made to work together.

01 / CONSULT

Design consultation

Bring the sketch, the sample or the problem. We define what needs to be made, the materials and the finish, and quote before we start.

02 / MACHINE

Precision machining

Machined components made to your drawing or ours, in the metals and finishes the job calls for, and checked before they leave.

GET IN TOUCH

We brought a sketch and a problem. LUMA helped us define the part, agreed the material and finish, then machined it exactly as quoted.

Elena Marsh

OPERATIONS · BRIGHTWORKS

The enclosure fitted first time and the finish was better than the drawing suggested. Straightforward to deal with from brief to delivery.

James Thornton

ENGINEER · FORMA LABS

Hiring the magnetic drill for a week saved us buying one. Booked online, ready when we arrived, and someone walked us through it.

Sophie Aldridge

SITE MANAGER · AEGIS RAIL

Build night was the best evening I have spent in a workshop. I left with a lamp I made myself and a skill I will use again.

Marcus Chen

BUILD NIGHT REGULAR

Straight answers on materials and lead times. They tell you what will work before you spend anything, and then they make it.

Anya Petrov

FOUNDER · MERIDIAN

We ordered the workbench from the shop and it has been the centre of our workshop ever since. Heavy, square and built to last.

OUR PROCESS

How a LUMA job runs.

From first conversation to delivery: four clear steps, one team, no hand-offs.

01 / BRIEF

Brief

We look at the sketch or sample, ask about the intended use and agree the materials, finish and quantities.

02 / QUOTE

Quote

A written brief and quote with a lead time. You know what will be made and what it costs before we cut anything.

03 / MAKE

Make

Machining, fabrication and finishing in-house, by the same team that took the brief.

04 / CHECK

Check and deliver

Every piece is checked against the drawing, then packed for delivery or collected from the workshop.
