How we make fitted wardrobes for UB9
Fitted wardrobes are built to the room, from the floor to the ceiling and from wall to wall where that suits the room. There’s no dusty gap on top and no awkward space at the ends. If you are planning fitted wardrobes in UB9, the first step is a design visit to measure up and go through the design. Most enquiries start with storage boxes stacked under the bed and space under the eaves going to waste; the furniture is made from birch ply and moisture-resistant MDF, painted by hand or sprayed.
Finishing comes last. If the furniture was spray painted in the workshop, we fill the fixing holes and touch up on site; if you chose hand painting, that can be done in the room once the furniture is fitted. The finish is always the one agreed in your quote.
- It starts when you tell us about the room, the floor it’s on and the wardrobes you want.
- At the design visit we plan the wardrobes with you and check the route in, including any lift or tight stair turn.
- A written quote follows with the design, materials and finish.
- In our workshop the wardrobes are built in sections from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, so each piece fits through the doors and round the landings.
- Fitting day: the sections come in, are joined and set level, and the doors are hung.
What goes into your quote
No two rooms cost the same to furnish, because the size, the layout and the finish all vary. Spray painting and hand painting are different processes, which affects the cost. The figure comes in your written quote after the design visit.

Bedroom storage across UB9
Homes across UB9, UB9 included, have bedrooms with every kind of quirk. Fitted wardrobes are scribed to the walls and levelled on site. The paint finish, spray-painted or hand-painted, is agreed with you.
Homes built between 1919 and 1939 make up about 50% of the housing in UB9, with about 25% built between 1945 and 1972, 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 UB9 (about 50%) date from between 1919 and 1939, in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Houses from that era often have a box room over the stairs, with a raised bulkhead in the floor, a good spot for fitted furniture built around the bulkhead. About 25% of homes in the UB9 postcode district were built between 1945 and 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Bedrooms from that era tend to be regular, so fitted furniture can run wall to wall, fixed to suit the wall.
Much of London is covered by controlled parking zones run by the boroughs, and depending on the street, a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension through the council may be needed. Let us know about parking at the measuring visit.
Hillingdon: Ickenham Hall, about 1.8 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area. If your own home is a period one, tall ceilings give fitted wardrobes room to reach the cornice. Near listed buildings like Cedars House, about 0.5 miles west of the centre of Hillingdon, older homes may keep original joinery that fitted wardrobes can be designed around. For a listed home, fixing into original features can require listed building consent.
Where other trades come in
Some parts of a job need another trade, from an electrician to a plumber or a Gas Safe engineer. Here is what to bear in mind:
- Fixing the cause of condensation or damp
- Converting a loft (we build storage in lofts that are already converted)
- Removing walls, chimney breasts or any structural work
What it’s made from
Hand-painted finish
With hand painting, you see the colour in your own room’s light as it goes on. Joins and scribed edges are painted in the same coats.
Doors and drawer fronts
Where there’s room to open them, hinged doors give full access. Sliding doors suit narrow rooms, though only part of the inside is open at once.
Do you need fitted wardrobes?
Sometimes it is a change in how a room is used. Fitted wardrobes give it proper storage while leaving space to move. Adjustable shelves let the inside change over time.
People normally get in touch with us about needs like these:
- Empty alcoves in the bedroom
- Damp or musty clothes against an external wall
- Storage boxes stacked under the bed
- A room too narrow for hinged doors
Flats, conversions and lettings
We also make and fit furniture for landlords furnishing a let. The materials are the same as for any home: moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, 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.
Tips worth knowing
People planning fitted wardrobes often ask about these. They’re worth knowing before and after fitting:
- Check the route into your flat, not just the room
- Count how much long hanging and short hanging you need
- Move furniture away from the wardrobe wall in advance
- Ask your electrician about moving sockets early
Fill the rails gradually and spread the weight along them. Very heavy coats sit best on a shorter rail.
Every so often, check that nothing has worked loose.
Common questions about fitted wardrobes
Does someone need to be home during the fitting?
We need access, so someone has to let us in. You do not need to watch us work, but it helps to be around at the end.
Do you work outside London?
No. We only take on work in London, across all the boroughs and the City of London.
What are your fitted wardrobes made from?
Moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood. MDF gives a smooth, stable surface for paint; birch plywood is strong and good for shelves and drawer boxes, and the quote says which is used where.
What affects the price of fitted wardrobes?
It depends on the size, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish, along with access and parking. We send a written quote after the design visit.
Is the furniture made to order?
Everything is built in our workshop for your room, then brought to your home and fitted. It’s built from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
Is it OK to put a wardrobe on an outside wall?
Yes. We plan ventilation behind and inside wardrobes on external walls. If there’s damp on the wall already, it should be sorted first.
Do you work on Saturdays?
Yes, we can arrange Saturdays. Just mention it when you contact us, and we’ll see what we can do.
