Loft storage designed for your room
When is bespoke worth it?
Bespoke work comes into its own in rooms that are not square. In period homes, walls lean, floors slope and the alcoves on each side are often different widths, and standard units leave gaps.
Standard units come in set widths and heights, so there’s usually a gap left over at the top or at one end. Fitted furniture is made to the room’s measurements, so it can use the full height and width.
Loft storage for homes in Yiewsley
Sloping ceilings make standard wardrobes hard to fit. We shape wardrobes to the slope, putting hanging space at the tall end and shelves or drawers where it is low. It makes the most of the room’s height. We’ll plan it during the design visit in Yiewsley. We make eaves cupboards from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, spray-painted or hand-painted, and the things people most often want solved are nowhere to store bags and boxes and wasted space behind the knee walls.
In a part of London with mixed housing, like much of the city, floors, walls and ceilings vary from one home to the next. Each piece is scribed to the wall and set level, whatever the room is like. The finish, spray-painted or hand-painted, is agreed with you.
You get the quote in writing, so you can read it at your own pace and talk it over at home. It records the design, the materials and the finish we discussed.

Pricing loft storage in Yiewsley
We quote each job after the design visit, because no two rooms are the same. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy it is to get the furniture into the room
- Spray painting or hand painting
- The width and height of the space
- Doors and drawers, and how many
Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design. The price depends mainly on the size of the piece, how many doors and drawers it has and what goes inside.
What to send when you contact us
Getting a few details early makes the visit more useful. Where you can, include:
- What kind of home it is, and which floor the room is on
- Examples of the look you are after
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What the furniture needs to hold
Rough sizes are fine at the start. Everything is measured properly when we visit, along with the walls, floor and ceiling. To get started, fill in our short enquiry form. The written quote follows the visit.
Your questions about loft storage in Yiewsley
Is Yiewsley in the area you cover for loft storage?
Yes, we work across Hillingdon, Yiewsley included, and across the rest of London. You can send us a few details through our contact form to arrange a design visit.
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Yiewsley?
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. Let us know what parking is near you during the design visit.
Is an outside wall a problem for fitted furniture?
It needs a little planning: leaving ventilation behind and inside helps stop condensation. We don’t treat damp, so any damp should be sorted before fitting day.
Do you work on Saturdays?
Yes, by arrangement. Tell us when you get in touch if a Saturday suits you best.
How long is the fitting for eaves storage?
How long fitting takes depends on the length of the eaves and the design, and your quote sets out the fitting days. We make the cupboards and drawers in our workshop, so the time at your home is spent fitting. If you’d like the fitting on a Saturday, that can be arranged.
Can you add sockets inside the units?
No. We’re carpenters, so electrical work is for your electrician. We can allow for cable routes in the design.
Bespoke loft storage or ready-made?
For simple storage in a boarded loft, ready-made shelving can do the job. A fitted design earns its place in a loft room you live in. At the design visit, we’ll tell you honestly which approach suits your loft. Recesses, sloping ceilings and awkward corners are where ready-made furniture struggles most, and most homes have one somewhere. Fitted furniture is designed around them.
In London, parking can affect the price. Much of London is covered by controlled parking zones, so we may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a suspended bay near your home. Let us know about parking at the design visit, so it can be planned.

What happens on fitting day
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’s fixed to the wall using fixings that suit the wall, whether that is solid brick, lath and plaster or plasterboard. Before fitting day, we check the route in as well as the room, so eaves cupboards arrive in sections that fit through. We cover floors and doorways on the way in.
- First we hear about the loft room and what you’d like to store, including the eaves and any dormer.
- At the design visit, the room and the route up are measured.
- We agree the cupboards, drawers and wardrobes, and send a quote in writing, with the finish set out.
- Every part is built in our workshop, ready for a spray-painted or hand-painted finish.
- The storage is fitted, scribed to the slopes and checked with you.
How to prepare
- Clear the walls of pictures and shelves
- Empty the space we will be working in
- Arrange any electrical changes with your electrician ahead of time
Arranging a design visit
Every quote follows a design visit. At the visit, we measure, look at the walls and floors and talk through the design with you, then send a written quote. Because every job is different, the cost is set out in a written quote after the visit. To book a design visit, use our contact form.

Fitted storage in Yiewsley
About 27% of the homes in the area around Yiewsley went up between 1945 and 1972, and about 25% between 1973 and 1999, on the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures for 2025. We take that into account at the measuring visit, since older and newer walls take different fixings. Within a mile of the centre of Yiewsley, 3 conservation areas are recorded by Historic England. England has around 10,000 in all, and their controls are mainly about the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Red routes, run by TfL, have strict rules on stopping and loading. If your street in Yiewsley joins a main road, it is worth telling us at the design visit. We can then plan where the van will stop.
If your home is as old as some of the listed buildings nearby, such as The De Burgh Arms Public House, original features like shutters, panelling and fireplaces are worth designing around. For a listed home, fixing into original features can require listed building consent. For an older house near St Matthew's, a dormer in a converted loft can hold shelves or a small desk. If you live near Lake Farm Country Park, eaves cupboards can be designed to hold outdoor kit, from walking boots to picnic things.
