How we make loft storage for Haverstock
We make each eaves cupboard in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood. Birch plywood gives the carcasses and drawers their strength, and MDF gives the doors and panels a smooth surface for paint. Once painted, by spray or by hand, it is carried up and fitted in your home in Haverstock. We make eaves cupboards from birch plywood and moisture-resistant MDF with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish, and the usual reasons to get in touch are a boarded loft with no proper shelving and nowhere to store bags and boxes.
Older homes like many around Haverstock have floors and ceilings that slope, and a large share of the homes around Haverstock date from then. Each piece is scribed and levelled on site so it looks straight in a room that isn’t. Original skirting and mouldings are met neatly, and the paint colour is agreed with you.
Everything we agree at the measuring visit goes into the written quote: the layout, what goes inside, the materials used and the finish. If you’d like to change anything, it’s easier before the furniture is made.

Made for the room, or bought in a box?
Ready-made wardrobes and cupboards are built for standard rooms. Under a slope, it leaves large gaps and wasted space. 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 cannot reach. Standard units assume square rooms, and period homes seldom have them, so you end up with gaps, wobbles and units that don’t meet the skirting. Fitted pieces follow the wall and sit level.
How it is painted is part of the price: spray painting is done in the workshop, while hand painting can be done on site. The written quote reflects your choice, along with the size and fittings.

Why people ask for loft storage in Haverstock
A new loft conversion often needs storage to finish it. Standard furniture rarely suits the new room. Storage made for the slopes completes it.
These come up often when people first get in touch:
- A sloping ceiling with no room for a wardrobe
- A dormer that is not being used
- Boxes and suitcases with no home
- A loft room that still feels unfinished
For a family home near Fine Arts College, deep drawers suit the bulky things families collect, from scooters to swimming kit.

FAQs: loft storage in Haverstock
Do you cover homes near South Hampstead station?
Yes. We cover all of Camden and the rest of London. To get started, you can drop us a line using the contact form with a few details about the room, and let us know about parking and access at the same time.
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Haverstock?
It can be: much of inner London is covered by controlled parking zones. 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. Let us know what parking is near you at the design visit, so we can plan the day around it.
Should I send photos?
Yes, they help. A few pictures of the room, from floor to ceiling, tell us a lot. You can send them when you send us a few details through our contact form.
Can you get furniture up narrow loft stairs?
Measuring the route is part of the design visit. We size every section for the tightest turn, and the pieces are put together in the room.
What do you do at the measuring visit?
It is a chance to measure properly and talk through what you’d like. We look at the walls, floors and anything the furniture has to work around, and the written quote comes afterwards.
Is the furniture spray painted or hand painted?
There are two choices: a spray finish from the workshop, which is smooth and even, or hand painting, which can be done in your home. Your quote sets out which you’ve chosen.
From workshop to your room
Before anything is fixed, we set the furniture level. Floors are often out of level, so adjustable feet or a plinth take up the difference, and that keeps the doors and shelves true. After that, it is fixed to the wall using fixings that suit the wall, whether that’s solid brick, lath and plaster or plasterboard. If your hall still has its original tiles or boards, they’re covered before any carrying starts. Drilling into lath and plaster is done with care, so the plaster around stays sound. Any decorating around the new pieces is for your decorator.
- First you tell us about the loft room and what you’d like to store there.
- We visit to measure the eaves and slopes and talk through the design.
- You receive a written quote for the storage we have discussed, for you to look over.
- We make every part in our workshop, cut to the angle of the slope. We use moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- The storage is fitted in the loft and checked, door by door.
Getting ready for fitting day
- Check the building’s rules for trades and lift bookings
- Point out meters, boilers and fuse boards near the furniture
- Clear the walls of pictures and shelves
Starting with a design visit
The quote is built from the design visit. We measure the room properly, check how the walls and floors run and discuss the design with you. A quote in writing follows the visit for you to look over. To book one, drop us a line using the contact form.

Flats, conversions and lettings
Conversions and newer flats often have stud walls rather than solid brick. We choose fixings to suit the wall.
In a managed block, the building manager or concierge may need notice before we arrive. Lifts sometimes need to be booked, and the lift size helps decide how big each section can be. Let us know about it when you get in touch.

What affects the cost of loft storage
The price for your room depends on:
- What goes inside: rails, shelves, drawers and dividers
- How big the furniture is
- Spray painting or hand painting
- Walls and floors that are out of level or out of square
Awkward rooms take more time: walls that lean, floors that slope and sloping ceilings all mean more scribing and cutting. That’s reflected in the quote, written once we have measured up.
Getting in touch
Ahead of the design visit, we’ll typically ask about:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What you’d like to store or use the space for
- Anything fixed to the wall that the furniture needs to work around
- A few photos of the space, taken from the doorway and from each corner
A quote begins with some details from you: which room it is, rough sizes and a couple of photos 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.
Loft storage for homes in Haverstock
The biggest shares of homes in the neighbourhood around Haverstock were built before 1919 (about 46%) and between 1945 and 1972 (about 23%), according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). That matters for eaves cupboards, as the build era decides whether a wall is solid brick, lath and plaster, block or plasterboard. Haverstock is partly covered by the Belsize Park Conservation Area, one of the conservation areas recorded by Historic England. Conservation area controls are mostly concerned with the outside of buildings, and fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Your council can advise if you are unsure. Purpose-built flats are home to about 54% of households in the neighbourhood around Haverstock, according to Census 2021. For a flat, eaves cupboards are made in sections sized for the stairs, the lift and the doors. Building management rules on lifts, deliveries and working hours are worth checking early.
The wider area includes historic houses such as Keats House, about 0.8 miles north. If your own home is a period one, eaves cupboards in a converted loft are scribed to slopes that are rarely even. Close to Primrose Hill? Living near green space often means muddy boots, bikes and outdoor kit, and eaves cupboards can give those things a place.
