About our loft storage in Brunswick Park
Loft stairs are often narrow and steep, with tight turns. At the design visit, we measure the stairs and landings as well as the loft, so every section made in our workshop fits up the stairs. It’s part of the job for any loft room in Brunswick Park. Typical reasons to get in touch are boxes and suitcases with no home and a boarded loft with no proper shelving; the furniture is made from birch plywood and moisture-resistant MDF with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish.
Around Brunswick Park, with interwar houses or semis making up much of the housing, the hall is often wide enough for coat and shoe storage. Bays at the front suit a seat with storage below, with a grille where there’s a radiator underneath. Each space is measured and eaves cupboards are made to suit it.
The written quote is your record of the job. It sets out the eaves cupboard designed for your room, its materials and its finish, and it is what the workshop builds to.

How fitting works for loft storage
Getting everything level comes first. Where the floor slopes, we bring the furniture up to level on adjustable feet or a plinth, which keeps the lines straight. After that, it’s fixed to the wall using fixings that suit the wall, whether that is solid brick, lath and plaster or plasterboard. Semis and detached houses often have a front path or a side gate, which can make carrying in easier. We measure the path, any steps and the front door as part of the route. Floors are covered from the door to the room.
- First you let us know about the loft room and what you’d like to store there.
- At the design visit we measure the knee walls, slopes and stairs and plan the storage with you, including the headroom under the slope.
- You receive a quote in writing for the storage we have discussed.
- We make every part in our workshop, cut to the angle of the slope.
- The storage is fitted in the loft and checked, door by door, with the finish sprayed beforehand or painted by hand on site.
Before fitting day
- Have your electrician move any sockets or switches beforehand
- If you live in a block, book the lift and tell the building manager
- Leave a clear route from the front door to the room
Arranging a design visit
The design visit is where every quote starts. We take full measurements, see how true the walls and floors are and work through the design together. A written quote follows the visit. To book one, message us from the contact page.

Loft storage in Brunswick Park: local notes
About 60% of the homes in the streets around Brunswick Park went up between 1919 and 1939, and about 13% between 1945 and 1972, 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 ULEZ, run by TfL, takes in all of London, so Barnet is inside it. It applies to every van that comes to fit furniture in Brunswick Park. Access and parking are talked through at the design visit. Parking controls in London are set borough by borough, so Barnet has its own. Depending on your street in Brunswick Park, a visitor permit, a paid bay or a council bay suspension may be needed. Let us know what the parking is like at the measuring visit.
If your children go to St Andrew the Apostle Greek Orthodox School or a school nearby, eaves cupboards can give school bags, shoes and sports kit a proper home. For a flat near New Southgate station, check any building rules on lifts and working hours early, and the sections will be sized for the way in.

Do you need loft storage in Brunswick Park?
Some people have a boarded loft and want proper shelving. Storage in a boarded loft keeps everything organised. It suits seasonal things and boxes.
Most of the enquiries we get are about things like these:
- A new loft conversion that needs storage
- Space under the eaves going to waste
- Seasonal things cluttering the loft room
- No wardrobe that fits under the slope
If your home is one of the older houses near Oakleigh Community Church, the knee walls of a converted loft can take drawers as well as cupboards.
Questions to ask before you hire anyone
- How they’ll get the furniture into the room
- Who does any electrics, plumbing or gas work
- Will the quote be in writing?
- Can you see real work of theirs?
Practical tips
The finish lasts best with a little care. These practical tips help:
- Count the clothes you will need to hang
- Bring paint colours you like to the design visit
- Think about what will go in each cupboard or drawer
- Mention any parking rules on your street
Once the fitting is done, the storage is ready to use. New paintwork takes time to cure fully, so go easy on it to begin with. Avoid sticky tape, heavy knocks and harsh cleaners while it hardens.
Check now and then that handles and hinges are tight. A loose screw is easy to tighten before it works loose. If something stops working smoothly, message us from the contact page and describe it.
FAQs: loft storage in Brunswick Park
Do you make loft storage for homes in Brunswick Park?
Yes, we work across Barnet, Brunswick Park included, and across the rest of London. You can tell us about the room on our contact form to arrange a design visit.
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Brunswick Park?
It can be, depending on whether your street is in a controlled parking zone. Depending on the street, a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension through the council may be needed, and suspensions often need notice. It helps to tell us about parking during the design visit, so the day can be planned around it.
What do eaves cupboards cost?
Because every job is different, the cost is set out in a written quote after the visit. It depends on how much storage you want, the shape of the room and the finish. For a quote, tell us about the room on our contact form to arrange a design visit.
Is it possible to fit a wardrobe under the slope?
Yes. The wardrobe follows the angle of the ceiling, with hanging where there’s height. It makes the most of the space. We plan it during the design visit.
What if my walls and floors are out of level?
Uneven walls are normal in older London homes, and the furniture is made to deal with them. We scribe the edges to follow the wall and set the furniture level on adjustable feet or a plinth.
Do you carry out loft conversions?
No, the conversion itself is not our work. Our part is the storage once the loft is a finished room, from eaves cupboards to wardrobes under the slopes.
Bespoke or off-the-shelf?
Ready-made wardrobes and cupboards are built for standard rooms. In a loft room, standard pieces leave tricky gaps under the slope. Bespoke storage follows the angle of the ceiling and fills the knee wall. It costs more than off-the-shelf furniture, and what you gain is the space a standard piece can’t reach. Even in a 1930s house, walls and floors aren’t perfectly true, and standalone units can lean or gap. Built-in pieces are adjusted to the room on site.
Access to the room makes a difference too. Several flights of stairs, a small lift or a narrow hall can mean smaller sections and more carrying, and that is part of the price. Your quote is written for your room once we’ve visited and measured.

Flats, blocks and rented homes
Some blocks ask for notice before trades arrive, often through a building manager or concierge. If there is a lift, it may need booking, and its size matters when we plan the sections. Tell us about it when you contact us.
For flats on red routes or busy main roads, unloading takes some planning. Red routes are run by TfL and have strict stopping rules, so it is worth raising during the design visit.
