We are extremely pleased with our under stairs shoe drawers. James was extremely hard working and professional. We cannot fault his work and the quality of the drawers. Highly recommended.

I’m really pleased with the under…

I’m really pleased with the under stairs cupboard, it looks great and the fitter did a fantastic job. I would definitely recommend using Under Stairs Storage.

I’ve been renovating and extending the house I am in for the last 12 months and I have had all kinds of tradesmen in doing various jobs. It seems like every time I have something done there is always a problem, or something thats not done as I’d asked, or something that’s disappointing, so its really refreshing to have your company come in, work so professionally, and do such a great job.

My father has been a builder for 50 years, and a carpenter by trade. He hates it when I get other people in to work on the house (and is always a little offended when he considers it something he could have done himself!), but I persuaded him I was better getting a specialist company to fit the under stairs cupboard. He was actually working at my house the day your fitter was there. Every time my dad was in the kitchen making a cup up tea I watched him eying up the way the fitter was working over his shoulder (🙄). The next day I (nervously) asked him what he thought of the cupboard, I usually get a tut, a sigh, and a list of things he considered they didn’t do properly, but he actually perked up and said ‘really neat little job that, and a lot of work for one bloke in a day’. That really should be taken as high praise!

Great service

Great service, great product, great team! From my first initial query which was very prompt and promised to give us everything we wanted to order which again was very hassle free and the timeline for work was also reasonable. It took one day to fit and the fitters were punctual, very respectful, hard working and knowledgeable. They left the house as they found it so absolutely no complaints and i would fully recommend.

Great from start to finish.

Great contact from Richard and information from start. Told us everything we needed know and explained any queries. Installation took two days which was two full, hardworking days. Very happy with work and quality. The understairs cupboard and six drawers has been amazing for us. Definitely recommend.

Great service + friendly team

Great service delivered by highly professional and friendly team. Richard was very helpful and friendly over email and phone to prepare the project and quote, James executed the installation to a very high standard working really hard for the whole day. Will definitely recommend this company. Price is very reasonable too considered the amount of work involved and the skills required to do it well! Very happy with results!!

Poor customer service

After obtaining a quote through Under stairs Storage, myself and my partner mulled over the quote as we had just moved into our new home and understandably had many expenses. However, we decided we wanted to proceed as we believed in Under stairs storage and was very much looking forward to our under stairs storage solution.

We then informed under stairs storage we wanted to proceed and let me point out that we made it clear we were not in a particular rush and was more than happy to wait 2-3 months as had been quoted.

They then requested a new picture, although this had already been supplied we happily supplied along with measurements.

4 days passed after us informing the sales person and we received very slow and short responses and were at a loss as to why they had not requested the 30% deposit as we were informed which was required, which of course we were more than happy with.

So after prompting on the point and clearly asking to confirm the next steps re deposit and obtaining a place in the queue it is at this point they decided to inform us that due to raw material issues (which we are understanding of, as mentioned we recently moved into a new home) they was going to withdraw from taking the order and things are changing on an hourly basis which was slightly confusing as only 30 minutes prior they had confirmed. Also, seems slightly dramatic for an understairs storage company. They then wished us the best of luck with the project, great thanks!

At this point we were so disappointed and confused and kindly requested a call to discuss and even let them know yet again we were happy to work with them re dates. However, they refused and asked us to accept the last email as the current position. We were so disappointed with the customer service that they was not transparent until prompted as we had a hunch there was an issue as no deposit was taken neither was we getting much in way of response.

We were more than happy to wait with the lead times and struggle to believe the raw materials was the sole issue and even if it was true, certainly not how I and most others would run a company when the client is looking to spend £1600+, you would simply state the situation and say you would understand if a client wanted to go else where but would be more than happy to contact them as soon as they can fulfil the order and take a deposit to obtain a place in the queue.

Unfortunately, I cannot comment on the product but can safely say I am not sure I have ever experienced such poor customer service, practically telling us to find an alternative solution and had no interest whatsoever in our business. Under Stairs Storage do not deserve our hard earnt cash.

I can confirm this statement of events is true.

One practical bit of advice, invest in a customer service course.

Thank you for your lengthy review. We must point out in the first instance that every other review on our TrustPilot page apart from yours is from a paying customer who has proceeded to have an installation from us and has paid us for such and experienced our service. The fact that you merely made an enquiry and took to making such a negative review and one of such length is baffling. Maybe you wish to push all the other 182 excellent reviews down and make your one negative review the most prominent. Either way, your account of events are not true as you claim they are. You made an enquiry on Jan 4th 2022. You were dealt with immediately and a product spec was sent along with a lengthy phone call with one of our directors which ended in you and your partner deciding whether to remove an extra part of plasterboard to increase the end solutions storage space based on our advice. You mention £1600 being a great deal of money. Every amount to every individual is relative and in the case of fitted furniture installations with a 25 year / lifetime guarantee, £1600 is not a great deal of money in the home improvement world when considering post covid costs and fuel etc. We can prove this without sounding as though £1600 is not a great deal of money generally. Those dealings concluded on 6th January 2022 some 2 days later. On Friday 18th March 2022 you sent an email nearly 3 months later requesting a call back which you received the very same day. On Monday 21st March 2022 you emailed stating that you wished to proceed. At no point before that had you identified your intent to proceed with our company and therefore were not aware of our raw material shortage issues since speaking with us nearly 3 months prior then going cold without contact. Once you stated your intent, we sent you an email the next day when processing your file to request the new measurement for the extra area to be removed. You then replied with an email stating you had previously sent that information in all the other info you had sent and if we look for it we will find it. We replied and said we would do that. You later emailed again providing the information which you did not wish to provide earlier upon our request. You then emailed the next day saying it had now been 4 days since stating you wished to proceed. We apologise that for 3 months you went quiet on us after making your initial enquiry and never even contacted us to advise your intent. You were probably obtaining other quotes which is a natural consumer journey. However, once you had realised, we were the best National operator with a 100% happy TrustPilot customer base you decided things did not suit you with regards our raw material issues and took to leaving a negative review to damage our reputation due to your own disgruntlement. This disgruntlement could have been your wife demanding an outcome which was picked up on during the calls we had with you. If you would have decided when first contacting us your issue would not have arisen 3 months later! We accept that you must be either unhappy that you could not obtain our service or simply from another company trying to find a way to damage our excellent reputation. You state at the end of your review that you could not comment on our product but stated earlier in the review that you believed in us hence your decision to proceed. Can we be clear that we are not under any duty to accept an order, we would never take deposits for orders we could not fulfil, that would only be done by a bad operator. We also have the right to choose and select our customers as much as they have a right to select us or another. How our customers treat us is very important to us because we offer a lifetime guarantee and 25 years or more is a long time to offer a warranty, therefore, good relations are paramount between the company and the customer, regardless if the warranty is called upon or not. All we can conclude from your review is that the time line of events in your review are misconstrued in your favour and against our excellent reputation which has been tarnished by your review on TrustPilot. Defamation of our reputation is being looked at legally based on you claiming the statement of events are true when they are clearly not and evidenced as such by our time line of events in our system. We are very interested as to why you would go to such an effort to be the only negative reviewer of our company when you are not even a paying customer. Merely an enquirer. We accept that our paying customers understand our operation and service and will not be misled by your comments. Those who have had our team/s in their house/s are as clearly stated on this TrustPilot page, very happy indeed. That takes a great deal of effort on our side to make sure everyone is happy with their installation. One practical bit of advice in return to yourself would be to check your standing legally based on the actions you have taken by leaving such an untrue version of events, moulded to suit your quest to leave a negative review and damage our company in whatever way you can which is not limited in its disclosure. We have only been honest with you regardless of your version of events. We would not change anything we did nor said and believe our actions were correct both legally and morally as a UK registered business. Our reputation means a great deal to all of our team who travel the UK Nationally every week from Aberdeen to Dover and who also work very long hours each and every day. To be so vexatious when not stating the true events is questionable and you should consider all the people involved in making our solutions what they are when leaving such a review when not even being a paying customer. We assure you that we understand customer service after 35 years within the UK home improvement sector and can only state that those customers who treat us with respect will also obtain the same respect in return.

Excellent company

Can’t fault the service I have received from Richard. He was thorough in his explanation of the product I would receive, in his quotation and then in providing regular updates. I have felt like a valued customer throughout.
James fitted my storage and was extremely polite, professional and skilled and is a credit to the company.
I’m delighted with the storage, it’s of excellent quality and has made great use of wasted space. Would definitely recommend Unders Stairs Storage.

A more premium option but worth it

We spoke to a couple of dedicated under stairs storage companies before choosing USS. USS position themselves as a better quality option than competitors, with long guarantees (effectively lifetime) and better customisation which makes full use of the depth of the space, not just the height and width. So they’re a bit pricier than some other options but it means the work will be solid for more years to come as well. The installation was all done in one day, the installer was very friendly and professional, and USS were straightforward and clear in their communication of an advance booking date, terms of deposit and final payment, guarantees etc. Their installation has made a huge difference in terms of storage space and it looks good too, as well as it having high quality soft closing and opening mechanisms. Would recommend.

Very professional job. Lifetime guarantee. What’s not to like?

We had under stair storage installed by James from USS yesterday. He managed to complete the job in one day even though it’s usually a 2-day job. He did a very professional job with millimetre perfect precision throughout. We now have loads of very usable storage space which should be all we’ll ever need. Naturally it’s only been a day since installation so it hasn’t been thoroughly tested / used, but it comes with a lifetime guarantee. My joiner friend said the price we paid was reasonable, so I’m happy.

We researched a number of options…

We researched a number of options before electing to use UnderstairsStorage.co.uk and we couldn't have chosen better. Richard was incredibly helpful at every stage beforehand in providing pricing and options for us and helping us to make choices which made the best use of the space. There was a long wait time for it to be fitted but this was entirely attributable to the popularity of this company and you can really see why as their service is absolutely excellent. The product was worth the wait.

Their fitter texted beforehand to let me know when he was on his way each day and he has done an outstanding job. I noticed how carefully he installed each piece and used spacers to ensure that everything is perfectly aligned, and the end result speaks for itself. He cleaned up after himself each day and all the removed plasterboard and offcuts were loaded into a Hippo Bag that was collected a few days later with no problems at all.

I can thoroughly recommend this company. They weren't the cheapest quote that we received but I feel we had value for money as the product quality and the installation process were of an incredibly high standard.

Shaker Style installation.

Excellent communications throughout the process, with kind and helpful advice at the initial design stage.

The installation team were a pleasure to have in the house, hard working, professional and highly skilled.

There is inevitably a considerable amount of dust and off cuts produced by the bespoke manufacture on site, the machining was all undertaken outside and everywhere was left spotless.

We chose the Shaker style finish to match kitchen cabinets, the option was more expensive, but well justified in the additional work entailed in the framing work. The end result exceeds our expectations and we are truly delighted with the product. Highly recommend this company.

Excellent from Start to Finish

So glad we employed Under Stairs Storage to carry out the works at our house. From the very first discussion with Richard I had confidence that we were dealing with a good Company. He was very understanding with changes to our schedule as we had a lot of works going on in the hall. The fitting team were first class no problems whatsoever. I would highly recomend this Company if your Storage Requirements.

Very nice installation. Exactly what I wanted. The fitter, Radovan, was on time, very courteous & made a first class job. All the cutting was done outside so very little dust. He laid dust sheets before starting & removed them on completion & used a vacuum to leave the area spotless. Would recommend the company unconditionally.
