About fitted wardrobes in TW8
Fitted wardrobes are built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood. Doors and panels are spray painted in the workshop or hand painted, in a colour agreed with you. Then we fit them in your home, levelling them on a plinth or adjustable feet. Typical reasons to get in touch are a tight bedroom where doors get in the way and a bedroom that never feels tidy; the furniture is made from birch ply and moisture-resistant MDF, painted by hand or sprayed.
Period rooms often have skirting boards, picture rails, cornices or coving for the furniture to meet. We cut and scribe the furniture around them on site. The time the fitting takes depends on the length of the run, the doors and what goes inside, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote.
- You tell us about the room, including any slopes, alcoves or windows.
- A design visit follows, where we measure and agree the layout.
- We put the design, materials and finish into a written quote.
- We then make the wardrobes in our workshop, ready for spraying or for hand painting on site.
- The wardrobes are fitted in your home, ready to use. We adjust the doors so they hang and close evenly.
What goes into your quote
Because every job is different, the cost is set out in a written quote after the visit. A larger piece means more material and more time, so size is the starting point. After that, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish all play a part.

Homes across TW8 and their bedrooms
Across TW8, from Brentford, Northfields and South Ealing outwards, we design and fit fitted wardrobes. On an external wall, ventilation is designed in to help keep condensation away. Fixings are chosen for the wall, whatever it’s made of.
Homes built before 1919 make up about 42% of the housing in TW8, with about 20% built between 1919 and 1939, on the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures for 2025. That matters for fitted wardrobes, as the build era decides whether a wall is solid brick, lath and plaster, block or plasterboard. More than a third of the homes in TW8 (about 42%) were built before 1919, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. Bedrooms in houses of that age often have a chimney breast and alcoves, which suit wardrobes built to their widths. 1 of the 8 places in TW8 with their own pages here has its centre inside a conservation area, according to Historic England’s data. The rules mainly cover the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house does not normally need planning permission.
We cover the whole of London, so homes in TW8 are well within our area. If you are unsure about access or parking, mention it when you get in touch.
Brentford: The wider area includes historic houses such as Kew Palace, about 0.5 miles south-east. For a period home anywhere nearby, solid external walls can be cold, so ventilation behind fitted wardrobes is part of the design. If your children go to St Paul's CofE Primary School or a school nearby, fitted wardrobes in a child’s room can be planned so the inside layout changes as they grow.
Flats, blocks and rented homes
Many London terraces have been converted into flats, and that often means a shared hallway and a tight turn on the stairs. Each section is sized with that in mind, once we have measured the way in.
In a flat, the route in matters as much as the room. We measure the stairs, landings, lift and doorways along with the room itself, so each section is sized to get through.
DIY, flat-pack or bespoke
It is worth being honest about cost: off-the-shelf furniture usually costs less up front. Bespoke earns its place where the room is tricky, space is tight or you want the furniture to look part of the house.
What you pay for with bespoke is mainly the fit: edges scribed to the wall, a level base on a sloping floor and a neat line where the furniture meets the ceiling. Off-the-shelf furniture can’t normally do that in an older room.
Made for the room, or bought in a box?
Bought wardrobes are made in set sizes, which leaves gaps above and beside them. A fitted wardrobe runs to the ceiling and the walls, so the space is used and there is nowhere for dust to collect on top.
Questions to ask before you hire anyone
- Whether the finish is set out in the quote
- Whether the quote says what the furniture is made from
- Real projects you can actually look at
- How they’ll get the furniture into the room
Do you need fitted wardrobes?
Some bedrooms are hard to furnish. Slopes, chimney breasts, low windows and doors in awkward spots leave standard wardrobes with nowhere to go. Fitted wardrobes are shaped around them.
We are often asked to help with:
- A tight bedroom where doors get in the way
- Clothes piled on chairs and in spare rooms
- Too little room for clothes
- Mismatched bedroom furniture
Where other trades come in
As carpenters, we leave some work to other trades. These are worth knowing before you plan:
- Converting a loft (we build storage in lofts that are already converted)
- Structural changes to the room
- Fixing the cause of condensation or damp
Questions from TW8
Can you come on a Saturday?
Yes, by prior arrangement. Tell us when you get in touch if a Saturday suits you best.
Is it possible to have storage over the bed?
Yes. Building around the bed uses a wall that often goes unused, with wardrobes at the sides and cupboards overhead. We measure the bed and the room at the measuring visit.
How is the furniture painted?
You can choose between two finishes: spray painted or hand painted. Spray painting gives a smooth, even finish, and hand painting is easy to touch up.
How is the price worked out?
Each room is quoted on its own: size, internal fittings, the finish and how awkward the walls are all play a part. The written quote follows the design visit.
What do you do at the measuring visit?
We measure the room, check how level the walls and floors are and talk through the design with you. We’ll also ask about access and parking, and afterwards we send a quote in writing.
How long are you in the house for fitting?
It depends on the length of the run, the doors and what goes inside, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. The wardrobes are made in our workshop first before we come to fit them.
Can you add sockets inside the units?
No. Electrical work is not something we do; it’s a job for your electrician. We can plan cable routes into the design, and any new sockets are best done before fitting day.
