Fitted wardrobes for homes in Motspur Park
Loft conversions, common in London terraces, often leave sloping ceilings. A fitted wardrobe can follow the slope, keeping long hanging where there is height and drawers or shelves lower down. It turns an tricky corner into storage. If you are living with dusty space on top of the wardrobe and a tight bedroom where doors get in the way, fitted wardrobes made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, spray-painted or hand-painted can solve it.
A loft conversion is a common way to add a bedroom to a semi or an interwar house, and that slope can be used for storage built to the angle. Around Motspur Park, interwar houses, semis and detached homes make up a large part of the housing. We work in lofts that are already converted, with each piece scribed to the slope and set level.

FAQs: fitted wardrobes in Motspur Park
Does a conservation area in or near Motspur Park affect fitted furniture?
Typically not: conservation area rules mainly cover the outside of buildings, and fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. If your home is listed, internal works that affect its character may need listed building consent, so check with the council first. If you are unsure, the council can confirm.
Can you fit furniture in a home close to New Malden station?
Yes, homes across Kingston upon Thames and the rest of London are within the area we cover. You can send us a few details through our contact form to arrange a design visit, and let us know about parking and access at the same time.
How much will my fitted wardrobe cost?
Size, doors and drawers, what goes inside and the finish all affect it. The price comes in a written quote after the design visit.
What happens when you come to measure?
We measure the space and discuss the design, materials and finish. We also check the walls and floors and note radiators, sockets and other things in the way, then send a written quote.
How do you get fitted wardrobes into a flat?
The wardrobes are made in sections sized to get up the stairs, into the lift and through the doors. That is why we measure the route, not just the room. In a leasehold flat, it’s worth checking the lease first.
Can you build wardrobes around a bed?
Yes. Wardrobes can sit either side of the bed with a bridge of cupboards above. It is planned so there is room around the bed and the room doesn’t feel enclosed.
How it’s made
Doors and drawer fronts
Drawer fronts can sit behind the doors or on the outside. Internal drawers keep a clean run of doors.
Hanging rails
We place rails at the heights your clothes need: a high rail for long items and double rails for shorter ones.
From workshop to your room
Once the main sections are fixed in place, any doors go on and any drawers or lids are fitted. Each one is adjusted until the gaps are even and it closes cleanly, then checked again. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the wardrobes and the number of doors, and the fitting days are set out in your quote. If you have a driveway, it can make unloading simpler, so let us know at the design visit. Otherwise, a visitor permit or a nearby bay helps. Floors and doorways are protected while the pieces come in.
- You contact us with a short note about the room and the wardrobes you have in mind, and we arrange a design visit.
- We come to measure the room, check the walls and ceiling and agree the layout. We also look at the way in, in case the sections need to go up narrow stairs.
- We send a quote in writing for the wardrobes, so you can see what’s included.
- We make the carcasses, doors and drawers in our workshop.
- We fit them in your home, levelled and scribed to the walls.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking near your home
- Let us know where the boiler and meters are
- Move anything in the hall or on the stairs out of the way
Arranging a design visit
Getting a quote starts with some details: which room it is, rough sizes and a couple of pictures if you can take them. To send them, send us a few details through our contact form. We’ll then arrange a design visit and follow it with a written quote.
Advice
Practical tips
These points come up often when people plan fitted wardrobes. They’re worth knowing whatever the room:
- For a flat, measure the stairs, landings and lift
- Have sockets moved before the wardrobes go in
- Check your lease before fixing furniture to walls in a leasehold flat
- Measure the gap between the wardrobe wall and the bed
Painted doors feel dry quickly but take longer to cure fully. At first, handle the doors with care and avoid knocking hangers against the inside.
Avoid drying clothes in the bedroom where you can. A little ventilation in the room helps.
What we don’t do
We’d rather be clear about where our work stops:
- Converting a loft (we build storage in lofts that are already converted)
- Taking out a chimney breast to make space
- Decorating or plastering the room
If in doubt, you can send us a few details through our contact form and describe the room before you arrange a visit. How a job runs, step by step.

Motspur Park homes and fitted wardrobes
In the area around Motspur Park, the largest groups of homes date from before 1919 (about 34%) and between 1919 and 1939 (about 31%), in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Knowing roughly when a home was built helps, because walls and fixings change from one era to the next. The Westcoombe Avenue Conservation Area is close by, within about a quarter of a mile of the centre of Motspur Park. Conservation area rules mainly cover the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. If in doubt, the council’s planning team can confirm. Around a third of the homes in the neighbourhood around Motspur Park (about 31%) date from between 1919 and 1939, in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Houses from that era often have a box room over the stairs, with a raised bulkhead in the floor, which suits fitted storage made around its bulkhead.
Close to Beverley Park? A bedroom facing the green is best kept light, with the furniture on the side walls. If your children go to St Matthew's CofE Primary School or a school nearby, fitted wardrobes in a child’s room can be planned so the inside layout changes as they grow. If you live in a period home close to Christ Church New Malden, a bedroom chimney breast and its alcoves often shape where fitted wardrobes go.
