About our loft storage in Ruislip Manor
The low space behind a knee wall is often the most useful in the room. Cupboards and drawers set into the knee wall make that space useful. Pull-out drawers mean you don’t have to crawl in. We measure and plan for the space you have in Ruislip Manor. Most enquiries start with clothes with nowhere to go in a loft bedroom and a boarded loft with no proper shelving, and the answer is made in our workshop from birch ply and moisture-resistant MDF, painted by hand or sprayed.
With interwar houses or semis a big part of the picture around Ruislip Manor, many have had the loft converted, leaving low eaves and sloping ceilings. Fitted storage can make use of the eaves, the bay or the hall. We build storage in lofts that are already converted or boarded.

Looking after your furniture
A few practical points help before and after fitting day. Here are some things worth bearing in mind:
- Make room so the whole loft can be measured
- Note how narrow the loft stairs are
- Think about what will go in each cupboard or drawer
- Plan where the tall end of a wardrobe can go
Small marks on a hand-painted finish can be touched in. Keep a note of the colour for later. If anything is not right with the storage, fill in our short enquiry form and we’ll talk it through.
Keep sharp or very heavy items away from the painted fronts. Store tools in a box, not loose against the doors. Minor chips can be touched up with the matching colour.
Common questions about loft storage
Do you make loft storage for homes in Ruislip Manor?
Yes, Ruislip Manor is within the area we cover, which takes in all of Hillingdon and the rest of London. We start with a design visit to measure the room and talk through what you need, and then we send a quote.
Do you cover homes near West Ruislip station?
Yes. We cover all of Hillingdon and the rest of London. To get started, you can fill in our short enquiry form with some details about the room, and let us know about parking and access at the same time.
Can you fit furniture to uneven walls?
That is normal in older homes, and it’s what scribing is for. We scribe the edges to follow the wall and set the furniture level on adjustable feet or a plinth.
What are your eaves cupboards made from?
Moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish. Stable materials suit a loft, where temperatures can vary. The materials and finish are agreed in your quote.
Do I need to be at home on fitting day?
Someone needs to be there to let us in. You do not need to watch us work, but it’s useful to be around at the end.
Is the furniture spray painted or hand painted?
There are two ways to finish it: by spray or by hand. A spray finish is smooth and even, while a hand-painted one is easy to touch up later.
Flats, conversions and lettings
Landlords furnishing a let use fitted furniture too, as it makes good use of an awkward room. It’s made from the same moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood as any of our work, finished by spray or by hand.
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, so fitting day is planned around them.
Flat-pack or bespoke?
A confident DIYer can manage simple shelves or a standard wardrobe in a square room. It gets harder with sloping ceilings, out-of-level floors and lath-and-plaster walls, where scribing and fixings that suit the wall are important.
It is worth being honest about cost: flat-pack is normally cheaper to buy. Bespoke earns its place where the room is tricky, space is tight or you want the furniture to look part of the house.
How fitting day works
You are welcome to ask questions while we work. The design, materials and finish were settled before anything was made, so fitting day is about putting it in place carefully and leaving everything tidy. How long the fitting takes depends on how much storage you want in the loft, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. A front path or side gate can make the carry from the van simpler. Gates, paths and steps up to the door are part of the route we measure. Floors are covered from the door to the room, and the sections are assembled in place.
- 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, as everything has to get up there.
- We agree the cupboards, drawers and wardrobes, and send a written quote.
- The storage is built in our workshop, in sections sized for the stairs. It’s made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- We carry it up, fit it and check every door and drawer with you.
How to prepare
- Clear the walls of pictures and shelves
- Move furniture and belongings away from the wall
- Tell us about any meters, fuse boards or boilers in the area
