Closet & Shelving Installation in Campbellford, ON
Get your space back.
Older houses were built with far less storage than people expect now. In Campbellford's historic homes and farmhouses, a closet can be a shallow alcove or a space tucked under the slope of the roof. The point of closet & shelving installation in Campbellford is getting more out of those awkward spots, and out of pantries, laundry rooms and garages too, planned around what you actually need to put away.
More Storage in Old Farmhouse Closets and Pantries
In a historic house, the bedroom closet may be shallow, with one rod and a single shelf above it. Running shelves right up to the ceiling and adding a second rod at half height lets it hold far more without changing its footprint. Hooks on the back of the door take care of belts and bags. Basic wire shelving costs $100 to $300 per closet, and custom wood systems run $400 to $1,500, with size and design setting the price.
Old walls are the tricky part. Studs in older homes aren't always on the regular 16-inch spacing common in newer houses, walls are rarely plumb, and there may be plaster over lath instead of drywall. We locate the framing before drilling, and where a stud isn't where we need it, we add solid backing. Shelves get scribed and shimmed so they sit level in corners that aren't square.
A farmhouse pantry is worth a second look too. If yours has a few sagging boards and a lot of wasted height, custom shelving at sensible spacing puts everything within reach. Laundry rooms benefit the same way. Every shelf that carries weight is fastened into studs or backing, never drywall anchors alone, and most installs are finished in a day.

Closet & Shelving Installation in Campbellford: FAQ
Do you offer closet & shelving installation in Campbellford?

Can you make use of the space under the stairs in our older house?
Usually, yes. Under-stair spaces are awkward because of the slope, so we step the shelves down to follow it, with deeper shelves at the tall end and shallow ones where it gets tight. If there's already a door, we work inside it. If the space is closed in, we'll check what's behind the wall before cutting an opening.
Should we go with wire shelving or wood in an older house like ours?
Both work. Wire is cheaper, goes in quickly and lets air move, which helps in a closet against a cold outside wall. Wood costs more but suits older trim and doors, and we can scribe it to walls that aren't straight, so it looks built in. Some people use wire in the back hall and wood in the bedrooms. We'll price both so you can compare.
