"Couldn’t recommend Stephen highly enough. Really nice guy who was completely professional throughout. We had a very small space for him to work with and we are super happy with our under stairs storage."

[ About us ]

Hi, i'm stpehen.

Founder of StepWise Storage.

🚜 "A tractor boy from Ipswich chasing a dream and following my passion"

A skilled cabinet maker and furniture designer from Ipswich with over a decade of experience and a formal education in carpentry and joinery. With deep roots in Suffolk, the Suffolk Punch horse proudly serves as our logo.

Early in my career I worked on many amazing projects up and down the country in the pioneering CLT industry. Collating all I learned during this time, I started my own business in 2020 (my sister brand SJW Carpentry) and have been proudly serving our community ever since.

"I deeply believe in consistent effort in your worthy pursuit. Delivering an honest and genuine service giving something to the world you can be proud of everyday."‍

I believe under stairs storage isn’t just a luxury, it's essential.
‍That’s why I founded StepWise Storage. I believe this solution belongs in every home across the country but lets start with Suffolk!

[ when we started ]

Small business,
big expectations.

Our journey began during that unforgettable time... Lockdown. With holidays cancelled, social plans on hold, and everyone spending more time at home, we realised something incredibly important. Your home should feel like your sanctuary. That’s when we set out to transform overlooked, under-used spaces into something purposeful. The space under your stairs stood out as the most neglected of all.

Our mission is to make your home feel like your holiday destination.

We began designing and installing clever under stairs storage solutions to help de-clutter hallways, tidy away piles of shoes, thrown-down bags, and messy coats to improve your homes flow and restoring a sense of calm and order to your homelife.
