Our History.

Our family-run business, established in 1973, has grown from strength to strength as we continue to raise the bar in creating truly exceptional workplaces across the UK.

When it all started...

This was the beginning. Andrew White established Glenside and took inspiration for the company name from the name of his house.

Andrew's son joins...

As Glenside expanded, Andrew brought his son Charles into the business. Charles came with a lot of experience in the fit-out and construction industry, and helped to lay the foundations for what Glenside is today.

First premises opened...

A big year for Glenside when we opened our first premises, located on Desborough Avenue, High Wycombe.

Glenside expands...

We expanded our services to, not only offer fit-out works, but also furniture. This enabled us to provide clients with a full service, from start to finish of a fit-out project.

A year of change

This was a challenging year for Glenside as Andrew sadly passed away. Therefore, Charles continued the business as a sole trader. Glenside moved to purpose-built premises on Kitchener Road, High Wycombe.

First website launched

First website launched!

Glenside entered the digital age by launching our first ever website, showcasing our work to a whole new audience.

In house 2D CAD

We extended our services and expertise further through the addition of in-house 2D CAD. Bringing this capability in-house allowed us to provide a better service to our clients by improving turn around times.

Glenside becomes an LLP!

Charles formed an LLP with his two sons, Kyle & Ryan, enabling Glenside to have more flexibility and helping to protect the company’s brand.

First in-house 3D visual produced...

Our technological skills and capabilities improved further when we produced our first in-house 3D visual.
