Our loft storage across Bromley
The space behind the knee wall normally has insulation and ventilation to think about. We design the storage so it does not block airflow or crush insulation. If anything looks wrong behind the eaves, it’s worth asking whoever converted the loft. When we visit in Bromley, we’ll see what’s there. Most enquiries start with furniture that can’t get up to the loft and seasonal things cluttering the loft room; the furniture is made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, spray-painted or hand-painted.
There isn’t much for you to do on fitting day. We need someone to let us in at the start, and the room should already be cleared, as we’ll have talked about during the design visit. After that, it’s over to us: the floors are covered, the sections come in and the fitting begins. The time the fitting takes depends on the shape of the room and the number of cupboards and drawers, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote.
- You get in touch and describe the loft room, its slopes and any dormer.
- We visit to measure the slopes and eaves and talk through cupboards, drawers and wardrobes under them.
- Your written quote sets out the storage and the finish.
- The storage is built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, cut to the angles we measured.
- We fit the storage in the loft, trimming the edges so they meet the ceiling neatly, with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish.
Quotes in Bromley
Every room is priced on its own, because size, layout and finish change from job to job. Spray painting and hand painting are different processes, which affects the cost. You will see the figure in your written quote, after the design visit.

Awkward spaces in homes across Bromley
We make loft storage for homes across Bromley, in Orpington, Beckenham and St Mary Cray and beyond. Meters, fuse boards and boilers stay accessible, with the clearances their makers set out. Fixings are chosen for the wall, whatever it is made of.
The biggest shares of homes in Bromley were built between 1919 and 1939 (about 30%) and between 1945 and 1972 (about 27%), on the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures for 2025. That matters for eaves cupboards, as the build era decides whether a wall is solid brick, lath and plaster, block or plasterboard. About 30% of homes in Bromley date from between 1919 and 1939, in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Many interwar houses have had their lofts converted, leaving sloping ceilings and eaves to use. A quarter or more of the homes in Bromley (about 27%) were built between 1945 and 1972, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. Where a post-war house has had its loft converted, the eaves and slopes can take fitted storage; we build once the loft is converted or boarded.
The ULEZ has covered every London borough since August 2023, and red routes, run by TfL, have strict rules on stopping.
Orpington: If you live in a flat close to St Mary Cray station, the route in is measured along with the room itself, and the sections are sized to fit it. Close to Jubilee Country Park? Living near green space often means muddy boots, bikes and outdoor kit, and eaves cupboards can give those things a place.
What prompts loft storage
A boarded loft can be made far more useful with shelving. Shelves and cupboards keep things off the floor and easy to find. It suits seasonal things and boxes.
Requests we hear often include:
- A converted loft with no fitted furniture
- A boarded loft with no proper shelving
- Low eaves that nobody can use
- Needing storage in a loft office
Where other trades come in
Not everything around loft storage is carpentry, from an electrician to a plumber or an engineer on the Gas Safe Register. Here’s what to know:
- Approval for structural changes
- Electrical work in the loft
- Altering the structure of the loft
Bespoke loft storage or ready-made?
With ready-made furniture, the colour is the maker’s choice. Ours is spray-painted or hand-painted in a colour agreed with you, so it sits with the rest of the room.
What to check before you book
- Whether the quote follows a visit to your home
- Whether they can show you real projects they’ve done
- Whether you will get a written quote, not just a figure
- Which parts of the job need an electrician or a plumber
Before and after fitting day
A little care keeps the finish looking good. These practical tips help:
- Let us know about parking near your home
- Look at the insulation and any vents behind the knee wall
- Think about what will go in each cupboard or drawer
- Clear the knee-wall spaces before the design visit if you can
Small marks on a hand-painted finish can be touched in. It is worth keeping a record of the paint colour. If anything is not right with the storage, use our contact form and we will talk it through.
Do not overfill drawers, as heavy loads strain the runners. A quick sort every so often helps. Heavy boxes are best kept low.
How we price loft storage
The price for your room depends on:
- Doors and drawers, and how many
- The overall size of the piece
- How easy it is to get the furniture into the room
- The internal fittings
Because every job is different, the cost is set out in a written quote after the visit. Bigger pieces use more board and take longer to make and fit. After that, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish all play a part.
What to send when you contact us
The more you can tell us at the start, the better the design visit goes. When you get in touch, it is useful to send:
- The type of home and how the room is reached
- Approximate measurements of the space
- Radiators, sockets, pipes or meters on or near the wall
- Pictures showing the full wall, from floor to ceiling
The quote is built from the design visit. We take full measurements, see how true the walls and floors are and work through the design together. Afterwards, we send a quote in writing, so you can take your time with it. To arrange the visit, send us a few details through our contact form.
FAQs: loft storage in Bromley
How much does loft storage cost?
Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design. It depends on how much storage you want, the shape of the room and the finish. To get a quote, send us a few details through our contact form and we’ll arrange a design visit.
Can you fit furniture on an external wall?
An outside wall can be colder and damper than an inside one, so we allow for ventilation behind and inside the furniture. If there’s damp, it should be sorted before anything is fitted.
Is it possible to fit a wardrobe under the slope?
Yes. We shape the wardrobe to follow the slope, with hanging at the tall end and shelves or drawers lower down. It makes the most of the space. We’ll work out the layout when we visit.
Do I get to choose the colour?
The choice is yours. Whichever finish you pick, it is in the colour you’ve chosen.
Will you paint the walls around the furniture?
No. We make, fit and finish the furniture, and plastering and decorating are for other trades. The furniture itself is spray painted or hand painted.
What happens at the design visit?
We measure the room, check how level the walls and floors are and talk through the design with you. Access and parking are worth talking about too.
How is the furniture painted?
There are two ways to finish it: by spray or by hand. Spray painting gives a smooth, even finish, and hand painting is easy to touch up.
