Airing cupboard sorted properly so you can find your sheets and towels without triggering a linen avalanche. Extra shelves fitted if needed.
### The Avalanche Every Time You Open The Door
We've all been there. You need a towel, open the airing cupboard, and **three fitted sheets and a duvet cover fall on your head**. Everything's in towering piles because there are only two shelves for a 6-foot-tall space.
It doesn't have to be like this.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Most airing cupboards have massive wasted space between shelves. Adding just 2-3 more shelves at sensible heights transforms them from chaos to actually functional.

### Why This Job Matters
An organised airing cupboard saves you **genuine time and frustration** every single week.
| ✅ Done Right | ❌ Current Chaos | |--------------|------------------| | Spare bedding exactly where you expect | 10-minute hunt for matching pillowcases | | Towels stacked neatly at hand height | Bottom towels crushed and never used | | Bathroom supplies easily accessible | Shampoo bottles rolling into the boiler | | Pleasant surprise when you open it | Braced for impact every time |
---
### What We'll Do
**🔧 The Sort-Out**
| Stage | What Happens | |-------|--------------| | **Empty** | Everything out so we can see the space | | **Assess** | Measure up for sensible shelf placement | | **Shelving** | Fit additional shelves at useful heights | | **Organise** | Everything back in logical order |
**📦 You're Left With** - Sheets sorted by bed size - Towels in easy-to-grab stacks - Bathroom supplies corralled together - Seasonal bedding up high, everyday stuff within reach

### Common Improvements
**Additional Shelves** Most airing cupboards desperately need 2-3 more shelves. I can fit these while we're sorting everything else.
**Basket Storage** For small items (flannels, cleaning cloths, toiletries), proper baskets or boxes mean things don't migrate to the back and disappear forever.
**Better Use of Height** Rarely-used stuff (guests' bedding, extra blankets) goes high. Everyday towels and sheets go at easy-grab height.

### Pricing Guide
| Complexity | Estimated Time | You'll Pay | |-----------|----------------|------------| | Simple reorganise | 45 mins | **£60** | | Plus 2-3 new shelves | 1 hr | **£60** | | Full overhaul + shelving | 1.5 hrs | **£85** |
*Based on £60 minimum (first hour) + £50/hr after. Shelving materials extra if needed (usually £10-20).*

### Perfect If...
✅ **You're drowning in linen** - too much stuff, not enough space
✅ **The boiler's in there** - awkward to organise around pipes and tanks
✅ **You've just moved in** - inherited someone else's chaos
✅ **Spring cleaning time** - might as well get it properly sorted

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Boiler in there?** No problem - I work around pipework and tanks all the time in Exeter's older houses. Shelves can be notched to fit snugly around obstacles. **Decluttering while we're at it?** I'm happy to bag up stuff for the charity shop or tip. You decide what goes, I do the heavy lifting. **Odd-shaped cupboard?** Sloping ceiling? Weird angles? That's normal in older properties. I can fit shelves to make the most of whatever space you've got. **DIY shelves that have failed?** I've lost count of how many "temporary" airing cupboard shelves I've replaced in Exeter homes. Let's get it done properly this time.
Frequently Asked Questions about Airing cupboard tidy in Dawlish
What does an airing cupboard tidy actually involve?
We empty it out, assess what shelving you actually need, fit extra shelves if required, then reorganise everything logically - sheets together, towels together, stuff you actually use within reach. The goal is opening the door without a duvet falling on your head.
Can you fit extra shelves while you're at it?
Yes - that's usually the main issue. Most airing cupboards have huge gaps between shelves, which is useless. I can fit additional shelves at sensible heights so you're not stacking everything in teetering piles.
Do I need to buy the shelves first?
I can advise on what'll work once I see the space. Some people have bits of wood lying about that I can use, or I can pick up proper shelving board from the merchant. Either way works.
Will you chuck out old stuff?
I can suggest what's worth keeping, but you decide what goes. If you want stuff taken to the tip or charity shop, I can do that as part of the job.
How long does it take?
If it's just a reorganise, about 45 minutes. If I'm fitting new shelves too, closer to an hour. I'll give you a better estimate once I see what we're working with.
