Annan, Dumfriesshire
Fitted bedrooms and wardrobes in Annan
The houses here
Why a standard one will not fit.
Annan is a red sandstone town on the Solway. The centre is Georgian and Victorian. Farms and older houses spread along the coast and inland towards Dornock and Eastriggs. We know this stretch well. We have made two rooms at Dornock, two years apart, for the same house.
That second Dornock job is the thing we would point at if somebody asked whether the work lasts. The kitchen went in in 2023. In 2025 we went back and made the dressing room. People do not ask you back two years later if the first job went wrong.
We make fitted bedrooms and fitted wardrobes for houses across Carlisle, Penrith and the rest of Cumbria. Because we cut the carcasses, the wardrobes finish at your ceiling. The run finishes at your wall. The sloping ceiling in the back bedroom stops being a reason you cannot have storage there.

Annan: the questions we get
Have you actually worked near Annan?
Yes. There is a kitchen and utility room at Dornock from September 2023. There is a fitted dressing room in the same house from July 2025. Both are on the projects pages, with photographs.
Do you charge extra for crossing the border?
No. Dumfriesshire has always been part of the area we cover, and it is not a long run from Dalston. The price is for the furniture and the fitting, not for the postcode.
Can you fit wardrobes under a sloping ceiling?
Yes, and it is one of the better reasons to have them made. A slope beats standard units completely. On a drawing it is only an angle. The space under it is usually the only spare storage in the room.
Do the wardrobes go right up to the ceiling?
If you want them to. We cut the carcasses, so the height is set by your ceiling and not by what a supplier stocks. It usually gains a full shelf across the whole wall.
