About loft storage in Hillingdon
Behind the short walls at the edge of a loft room, there is often space going to waste. Eaves cupboards and pull-out drawers built into the knee wall put it to work. Drawers bring the back of the space within reach. At the design visit in Hillingdon, we will see what fits. Most enquiries start with a loft room that doubles as an office or guest room and a loft room that still feels unfinished; the furniture is made from birch ply and moisture-resistant MDF, painted by hand or sprayed.
In older rooms, the furniture normally has to meet skirting, picture rails, cornice or coving. On fitting day, we cut and scribe the furniture around these details. How long fitting takes depends on how much storage you want in the loft, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote.
- First we hear about the loft room and what you’d like to store.
- We measure the eaves, the slopes and the stairs up to the loft.
- We agree the cupboards, drawers and wardrobes, and send a written quote.
- The storage is made at our workshop, in sections sized for the stairs. It’s made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- The storage is fitted, scribed to the slopes and checked with you.
How our quotes work
Parking is part of the price picture in London. Much of London is covered by controlled parking zones, so a van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension. It helps to talk about parking at the design visit, so it can be planned.

Loft storage for homes across Hillingdon
We make loft storage for homes across Hillingdon, in Ruislip, Hayes and Yeading and beyond. Meters, fuse boards and boilers stay accessible, with the clearances their makers set out. Fixings are chosen for the wall, whatever it is made of.
Homes built between 1919 and 1939 make up about 37% of the housing in Hillingdon, with about 25% built between 1945 and 1972, on the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures for 2025. We take that into account at the design visit, since older and newer walls take different fixings. Around a third of the homes in Hillingdon (about 37%) date from between 1919 and 1939, based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. Many interwar houses have had their lofts converted, leaving sloping ceilings and eaves to use. About 25% of homes in Hillingdon were built between 1945 and 1972, in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Where a post-war house has had its loft converted, the eaves and slopes can take fitted storage.
We make fitted furniture for every kind of home in Hillingdon, from Victorian terraces to new-build flats. The process is the same wherever you are: a design visit, a quote in writing, then making and fitting.
Ruislip: Close to Church Field Gardens? Eaves cupboards can be designed to hold outdoor kit, from walking boots to picnic things. If you live in a period home close to St Lawrence, sloping ceilings in a loft room suit wardrobes cut to the angle.
DIY, flat-pack or bespoke
If you’re handy, a simple shelf or a standard wardrobe in a square room is a reasonable DIY job. It gets harder with sloping ceilings, out-of-level floors and lath-and-plaster walls.
Standard units come in set widths and heights, so there’s often a strip of wasted space at the side or above. Fitted furniture is made to the room’s measurements, so it can use the full height and width.
Flats, leases and landlords
We also make and fit furniture for landlords furnishing a let, often to make the most of a small or tricky room. The materials are the same as for any home: moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand.
If the property is let, we will need access agreed with the tenants, at times that suit them. An agent can arrange access for you.
Materials and finishes
Hand-painted finish
Hand painting can be done on site once the storage is in. Small marks are simple to touch in later. That suits a room in daily use.
Doors and drawer fronts
Fronts are made from moisture-resistant MDF and painted to your colour. Angled fronts are cut to follow the slope, so the gaps stay even all the way along.
Looking after your furniture
A few practical points help before and after fitting day. Here are some things worth bearing in mind:
- Mention any parking rules on your street
- Look at the insulation and any vents behind the knee wall
- Clear the knee-wall spaces before the design visit if you can
- Check the route up to the loft
Small marks on a hand-painted finish can be touched in. It’s worth keeping a record of the paint colour. Should you have a question about the storage, tell us about the room on our contact form and we will help.
Keep sharp or very heavy items away from the painted fronts. Put tools in a case so they don’t knock the paint. A small chip on a hand-painted finish is easy to touch in.
Is bespoke worth it?
A ready-made cupboard pushed into the eaves can block airflow. We plan the storage around what’s behind the knee wall. That’s important for the health of the loft.
Questions to ask before you hire anyone
- Real projects you can actually look at
- How they’ll get the furniture into the room
- Whether they measure the room themselves
- Which parts of the job need an electrician or a plumber
Your questions about loft storage in Hillingdon
Where is the furniture made?
It’s made in our workshop, to the sizes taken at the design visit. After that, we fit it in your home.
Can you come on a Saturday?
Yes, by arrangement. Tell us when you get in touch if a Saturday suits you best.
Should I send photos?
Yes. They give us a feel for the space before we visit. It helps to show radiators, sockets and anything else on the wall.
How long is the fitting for eaves storage?
How long the fitting takes depends on the shape of the room and the number of cupboards and drawers, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote. The storage is made at our workshop first, so the time in your home is spent fitting. We work tidily and keep the stairs and landing as clear as we can.
Do you carry out loft conversions?
No, the conversion itself is not our work. We design and fit storage once the room is in place, from eaves cupboards to wardrobes under the slopes.
Can you add sockets inside the units?
No. We’re carpenters, so electrical work is for your electrician. We can plan cable routes into the design.
Do you make good the walls afterwards?
No. We do not plaster or decorate, so any work on the walls is for a plasterer or decorator. The furniture is finished by spray or by hand, as agreed in your quote.
