East Riding of Yorkshire is a county of brick-and-pantile village housing with a large stock of interwar suburban 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
Off-the-shelf units are made to standard sizes and then filled out with scribe strips. Our run of under-stair storage work is cut to the dimensions taken from your East Riding of Yorkshire property, so there is no packing, no filler and no gap that opens up in year two.
How we build it
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
Finish and materials
Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

Straight answers
Under-Stairs Storage in East Riding of Yorkshire — common questions
Is there a fire regulation issue?
There can be. If the stair is the only escape route in a house of three storeys or more, the understairs enclosure must be fire-resisting and cannot be used for certain storage. We check this at survey and specify accordingly.
Can a downstairs loo go under the stairs instead?
Frequently yes, if there is 1,900mm of headroom over the pan position and drainage is reachable. We build the enclosure, door and any vanity; the plumbing is a separate trade.
Can it be made to disappear into the wall?
Yes — push-to-open fronts with no handles, painted the same colour as the wall and scribed to the skirting line. Done properly you have to look twice to see it is there.
What actually fits under a staircase?
More than you think. A typical straight flight gives you three usable zones: a full-height cupboard at the tall end, mid-height pull-outs in the middle, and shallow shoe or wine storage at the low end. Pull-outs are the key — a deep fixed cupboard means crawling in on your hands and knees.
How do I pay, and when?
A deposit at order to cover materials, a stage payment when the work leaves the workshop, and the balance on completion after you have inspected the fit. Everything is written into the quotation before you commit.
