Fitted wardrobes designed for your room
From workshop to your room
Fitting day follows a set order: we protect the floors, bring the sections in, set them level, scribe them to the walls, fix them and finish them. At the end, we tidy up and go over the work with you. How long the fitting takes depends on the length of the run, the doors and what goes inside, and your quote sets out the fitting days. Whatever the age of your home, the furniture is fitted to the walls you have, scribed where walls bow and levelled where floors slope. Spray-painted pieces arrive finished; hand-painted ones can be finished on site.
- You send us a few details about the room and the storage you need, and we arrange a design visit.
- At the design visit, we measure up and plan the doors and the inside with you. We also look at the way in, in case the sections need to go up narrow stairs.
- You receive a written quote setting out the wardrobes, doors and finish, so you can see what’s included.
- We make the carcasses, doors and drawers in our workshop, using moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- We fit them in your home, levelled and scribed to the walls. A hand-painted finish, if you chose one, is done on site.
Before fitting day
- Keep pets in another room while we work
- Check the building’s rules for trades and lift bookings
- Have your electrician move any sockets or switches beforehand

How we make fitted wardrobes for Surbiton Park
The inside matters as much as the doors. Long hanging, double hanging, shelves and drawers are arranged around what you own. It’s worth noting the clothes you reach for most before the design visit. People typically come to us about wasted space beside the chimney breast and a room too narrow for hinged doors, and the answer is made at our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and strong birch plywood, with a painted finish.
Wherever your home in Surbiton Park sits in London’s mix of housing, the furniture starts from your room, not a standard size. On an external wall, ventilation behind and inside the furniture helps keep condensation away. Shelves, drawers and any hanging are arranged around your things.
If the job needs another trade, like an electrician or a plumber, we will tell you. The quote itself covers our work, from the design to the materials and finish.

What else we make in Surbiton Park
Practical tips
None of this takes much effort. Here’s what we suggest:
- Work out the split between long and short hanging
- Think about where you’ll keep shoes, bags and folded clothes
- In a leasehold flat, read the lease first
- Plan any socket or switch changes with your electrician before fitting
Painted wardrobe doors only need a soft cloth that is barely damp. Skip scouring pads and harsh cleaners, as they can dull the paint.
Every so often, check that nothing has worked loose.
Your questions about fitted wardrobes in Surbiton Park
My home in Surbiton Park is a flat. How do you get the furniture in?
We measure the route in not just the room: the stairs, landings, lift and doors. The furniture is made in sections that fit the stairs and lift, and put together in the room. If your building has rules on lift booking or working hours, or your lease needs consent for alterations, it’s worth checking those early.
Do you make fitted wardrobes for homes in Surbiton Park?
Yes. Surbiton Park is one of the places we work, along with the rest of Kingston upon Thames and London. You can get in touch through our contact form to arrange a design visit.
Can you come on a Saturday?
Yes, we can arrange Saturdays. Just mention it when you get in touch, and we will see what we can do.
Do I choose the paint colour?
You choose it. The paint colour is agreed with you.
How is the price worked out?
It depends on the size, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish, along with access and parking. We send a written quote after the design visit.
How long will the fitting take?
The time the fitting takes depends on the size of the wardrobes and the number of doors, and the fitting days are set out in your quote. We’ll talk you through what to expect beforehand.
Pricing fitted wardrobes in Surbiton Park
There is no set price, because there is no set room. The things that affect it are:
- Whether you choose a spray or hand-painted finish
- Parking near your home
- The overall size of the piece
- The number of doors and drawers
The finish affects the cost: spray painting happens in the workshop, and hand painting can be done in your home. Your choice, along with the size and the fittings, is reflected in the written quote.
What to send when you contact us
To help us picture the room, please include:
- Where you live, with the postcode
- Any ideas or images you’ve saved
- What kind of home it is, and which floor the room is on
- Rough sizes: width, height and depth
Every piece is quoted for your room after the design visit. Because every room is different, the quote comes after the design visit, when we have measured up and talked through the design. To arrange a visit, fill in our short enquiry form.
Bedroom storage in Surbiton Park
Homes built before 1919 make up about 33% of the housing in the streets around Surbiton Park, with about 20% built between 1919 and 1939, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Knowing roughly when a home was built helps, because walls and fixings change from one era to the next. Entries on the National Heritage List near the centre of Surbiton Park include Roman Catholic Church of St Raphael (Grade II*), less than half a mile north, and Picton House (Grade II*), about 0.6 miles north. Where a home is listed, listed building consent can be needed for inside works that affect its character, such as fixing into original panelling. Ask the council’s conservation officer before anything is fixed. Red routes, run by TfL, have strict rules on stopping and loading. If you live on or close to a main road in Surbiton Park, let us know at the measuring visit. We will plan where the van can stop.
If your home is one of the older houses near St John's Church, a bedroom chimney breast and its alcoves often shape where fitted wardrobes go. For a family home near St Andrew's and St Mark's CofE Junior School, fitted wardrobes in a child’s room can be planned so the inside layout changes as they grow. Close to Hampton Court Park? Keeping fitted wardrobes off the window wall keeps the room bright.

Flats, conversions and leaseholders
For a rented home, access for the design visit and fitting day has to be agreed with the tenants. A letting agent can arrange this on a landlord’s behalf.
Mansion blocks and purpose-built blocks often have house rules about lifts, entry systems and when trades can come in. Let us know about them during the design visit.
Flat-pack or bespoke?
Shop-bought shelves can sag over a long span. Span, depth and the weight on it decide whether a shelf sags, so a long run needs a thicker shelf, a stiffening lip or a support. We design shelves with that in mind.
If you are handy, a simple shelf or a standard wardrobe in a square room is a reasonable DIY job. Sloping ceilings, uneven floors and lath-and-plaster walls make it harder, where scribing and fixings that suit the wall are important.
