West Midlands is a county of Victorian back-to-back terraces, vast interwar semi estates and 1960s tower blocks. 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 West Midlands 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
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.

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 West Midlands — common questions
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.
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.
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.
