Buckinghamshire is a county of chiltern brick-and-flint cottages alongside substantial interwar detached homes. That is exactly the kind of building stock a run of under-stair storage has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
A run of under-stair storage is a permanent part of the building, so it is worth setting out properly. We take the survey, agree the drawings, machine the parts in the workshop and fit in Buckinghamshire in one visit wherever the programme allows.
How we build it
Moisture matters more than most people expect. Timber is conditioned before machining, and anything going into a kitchen, utility or bathroom is specified in materials that will not swell at the bottom edge. That is why the base of a well-made unit still closes cleanly after five winters.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Under-Stairs Storage in Buckinghamshire — common questions
How heavy can a pull-out unit be?
The runners we use are rated to 70kg per pair loaded. A tall pull-out full of coats and boots will get close to that, so the carcass is built in 18mm ply rather than MDF.
Will it work on a winder or curved stair?
Yes, but it takes more setting out and each unit is a different shape. Expect the price per metre to be higher than a straight flight.
Do you have to remove the existing cupboard door?
Usually yes. The standard builder's door under a stair wastes most of the volume behind it. Replacing it with a bank of pull-outs typically doubles what you can store and reach.
Can the meter or consumer unit stay accessible?
It has to. We build a removable or hinged access panel so the meter reader and an electrician can get to it without dismantling the joinery.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
