Custom Creations Blog

At Custom Creations, we specialise in designing and installing high-quality, made-to-measure fitted furniture tailored to your home and lifestyle. We know that whether you’re updating your interiors or planning a complete renovation, you probably have questions about the process, the benefits, and the possibilities.

This blog answers some of our most frequently asked questions about fitted furniture – from practicalities to design – to help you make confident, informed decisions.

What is fitted furniture?

Fitted furniture is custom-built to fit the exact dimensions of a space, often from wall to wall and floor to ceiling. It’s ideal for maximising storage and achieving a seamless, integrated look. Common types include wardrobes, shelving, media units, and under-stairs storage.

Unlike freestanding pieces, fitted furniture is designed specifically for your home – giving it a bespoke, built-in finish that enhances both function and style. If you’ve ever wondered, “will fitted wardrobes add value to my house?” – the answer is yes. Well-designed fitted furniture can increase your home’s appeal and storage capacity, both of which are attractive to buyers.

What is the process of installing fitted furniture?

The process of installing fitted furniture with Custom Creations is straightforward, efficient, and fully personalised. Here's how it works:

1. Consultation: We begin with a free home visit to discuss your needs, take measurements, and explore ideas.

2. Design: Our expert designers create a 3D visual of your fitted furniture so you can see exactly how it will look.

3. Manufacture: Once approved, your furniture is handmade in our local workshop using high-quality materials.

4. Installation: Our skilled team fits your furniture with care and precision, leaving your space tidy and transformed.

Do you create bespoke fitted furniture?

Absolutely. All our pieces are completely bespoke. We don't offer one-size-fits-all solutions – every project is crafted to meet your exact requirements. Whether you need fitted bedroom wardrobes, a media unit, or a clever storage solution for a tricky nook, we tailor everything to your home, style, and storage needs.

Curious about how much fitted bedroom furniture costs? It varies depending on the size, design and materials used. We provide clear, competitive quotes tailored to your project - just get in touch for a consultation.

Can fitted furniture be moved or redesigned?

Technically, fitted furniture is designed to be permanent, but it can be possible to modify or remove it with professional help. That said, one of the biggest benefits of fitted furniture is its longevity and tailored design, so most homeowners choose to keep it in place.

However, if you’re renovating or changing the use of a space, our team can advise on reconfiguring or updating your existing fitted units.

Quick FAQs

Are fitted wardrobes old fashioned?

Not at all. Today’s fitted wardrobes come in a wide range of modern styles and finishes, from sleek matt black to woodgrain textures. In fact, they’re a major trend in contemporary interiors.

Will fitted wardrobes reduce noise?

Yes – to some extent. Because they’re installed flush to walls and ceilings, they can dampen sound and reduce noise transfer.

What are fitted wardrobes made from?

We use high-quality materials including MDF, real wood veneers, laminates, and custom finishes depending on your preferences.

Can you paint fitted bedroom furniture?

Yes – our painted furniture can be finished in a colour of your choice, and can be refreshed or updated later if your taste changes.
