Fitted wardrobes across E22: what to expect
External walls can be colder and damper than internal ones, and a wardrobe packed against one can trap moist air. Where a wardrobe goes on an external wall, we plan ventilation behind and inside it. Moisture-resistant MDF is a sensible choice there too. We make fitted wardrobes from MDF made to resist moisture and birch plywood, then spray-painted or hand-painted, and people most often get in touch about gaps above and around standalone wardrobes and wardrobes that are full to bursting.
If anything comes up on the day, just ask. Most of the decisions were made at the measuring visit and set out in your quote, so the day itself is about careful fitting and leaving everything tidy. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the wardrobes and the number of doors, and the fitting days are set out in your quote.
- You get in touch about fitted wardrobes for your bedroom, with a rough idea of what you need to hang and fold.
- We visit to measure up and plan the doors, rails, shelves and drawers with you. Hinged or sliding doors are part of that conversation.
- You receive a quote setting out the design and the paint finish, ready for you to read through.
- We build the wardrobes in our workshop, in sections sized to get into your home.
- We fit them in your home, scribe them to the walls and hang the doors. The rails, shelves and drawers go in last.
Quotes in E22
Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design. Bigger pieces use more board and take longer to make and fit, so size comes first. After that, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish all play a part.

Starting with a design visit
You don’t need exact measurements to get started. Everything is measured properly when we visit, including how level the floor and ceiling are. To get started, send us a few details through our contact form and let us know about the room. The written quote follows the visit.
Landmarks near Poplar
Around Poplar, we cover homes near Tower Hamlets College, Bartlett Park and The Ledger Building pub. You’ll also find Our Lady and St Joseph Catholic Primary School (within half a mile north), Langdon Park Secondary School (0.6 miles north-east) and St Peter's Church (within half a mile west). Poplar has its own railway station: Canary Wharf station. A little further out are Museum of the Book (0.8 miles north-west) and Surrey Quays Shopping Centre (1.5 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s Lavender Pond.
Homes across E22 and their bedrooms
From Poplar, London Docklands and Canary Wharf to the quieter streets, bedrooms across E22 range from box rooms to large rooms with bays. Fitted wardrobes are made for the room you have, using the full height where it helps. The inside layout is planned around your things.
The biggest shares of homes in E22 were built since 2000 (about 69%) and between 1973 and 1999 (about 15%), according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). It’s a good starting point, though every room is still measured, as two homes of the same age rarely match. About 69% of homes in the E22 postcode district were built since 2000, based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. Bedrooms in homes built since 2000 tend to be compact, with stud walls, so fitted furniture is fixed to suit the board. About 90% of households in the E22 postcode district live in purpose-built flats, based on Census 2021. In a block, each section is sized to get up the stairs or into the lift and through the door. Building management rules on lifts, deliveries and working hours are worth checking early.
We cover the whole of London, so homes in E22 are well within our area. If you’re unsure about access or parking, mention it when you get in touch.
Poplar: If you live near Bartlett Park, keeping fitted wardrobes off the window wall keeps the room bright. For a flat near Canary Wharf station, fitted wardrobes are made in sections sized for the stairs, landings and lift, so measuring the route matters as much as measuring the room.
Flats, conversions and lettings
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 at the design visit.
For flats on red routes or busy main roads, getting the furniture from the van to the door needs planning. Red routes are run by TfL and have strict stopping rules, so tell us about it during the design visit.
Materials and finishes
Hanging rails
A long rail needs a support in the middle when it carries winter coats. We plan the rail lengths with that in mind.
Hand-painted finish
Hand painting can be done in your home after fitting. Small marks are simple to touch up, and it suits a softer, traditional look.
Made for the room, or bought in a box?
Older homes rarely have straight walls or level floors. Standalone wardrobes may lean or leave uneven gaps against the wall. We set fitted wardrobes level and scribe them to the walls and ceiling.
Before you hire any carpenter
- Will the quote be in writing?
- Whether they can show you real projects they’ve done
- How parking will work on your street
- Is it spray painted or hand painted?
Do you need fitted wardrobes?
A finished loft conversion often leaves a new bedroom with sloping walls and no storage. Storage built into the slope uses space that would otherwise go to waste, leaving the floor open.
These come up often when people first get in touch:
- No space in front for doors to swing
- Clothes with nowhere proper to go
- Several odd pieces where one run of storage would do
- Damp or musty clothes against an external wall
When is bespoke worth it?
The real difference is in the fit: edges scribed to the wall, a level base on a sloping floor and a neat line where the furniture meets the ceiling. In an older room, standard units rarely manage that.
Long shelves are where off-the-shelf often struggles. Span, depth and the weight on it decide whether a shelf sags, so a long run needs a thicker shelf, a stiffening lip or a support. That’s something we plan for in the design.
FAQs: fitted wardrobes in E22
How do I get a quote for fitted wardrobes in E22?
It is easiest to drop us a line using the contact form. We then arrange a design visit, measure up and send a written quote.
Do you make good the walls afterwards?
No. We don’t plaster or decorate. We finish the furniture itself, as set out in your quote.
Can the fitting be on a Saturday?
Yes, Saturdays are possible by arrangement. Let us know when you first get in touch.
Can I choose the layout inside the wardrobe?
It is worked out with you when we measure, starting from the clothes you have. Some shelves can be adjustable so the layout can change.
Where is the furniture made?
We make it in our workshop, to the sizes taken at the measuring visit. Then we bring it to your home and fit it.
Do I choose the paint colour?
You choose it. The paint colour is agreed with you, and it’s set out in the quote.
Can you fit wardrobes in a top-floor flat?
We make the wardrobes in sections sized to the route into your home. That’s why we measure the route, not just the room. If you’re in a leasehold flat, check your lease before fixing furniture to walls.
