About Joiner
Typical costs and what changes the price
Price varies with material grade, room access and whether the existing frames are square. Standard internal door replacements often fall between modest labour day rates and supply-and-fit quotes. Reclaimed timber, curved stair parts and hand-painted finishes push prices higher. Get 3 written quotes that list the same scope to compare fairly.
Payment terms and deposits
A deposit of 20 to 30 percent is normal when off-site manufacture starts. Never pay the full balance before the job is complete and any snagging list is finished. Stage payments, such as 30 percent on order, 40 percent at delivery, and 30 percent on completion, are common for larger fitted furniture projects.
Typical costs and what changes the price
Bespoke fitted wardrobes usually cost more than off-the-shelf flat-pack, mainly because of labour and finishing time. Price rises with the number of doors, drawers, soft-close mechanisms, and the timber species. Veneered MDF is cheaper than solid oak, but solid wood moves with humidity, so ask which is right for the room.
Floors, stairs and small repairs
Loose floorboards can be screwed down and gaps filled with flexible slivers, not rigid filler. Stair nosings should be replaced with like-for-like profile to keep tread depth even. Small repairs under 1 hour often justify a call-out fee rather than a full day rate, so ask the minimum charge before booking.
Questions to ask on the first visit
Ask how they will protect floors and furniture during dust-heavy work. Confirm who removes old doors, architrave or skirting, and whether disposal is included. Request the timber species, board thickness and finish in writing. Also ask start date, expected duration and daily working hours so access is clear.
Floors, stairs, and small repairs
Squeaking floorboards usually mean loose tongues or insufficient fixings. A joiner can lift 2 to 3 boards, re-secure the joist with 50 mm screws, and silence the noise in under 1 hour. For stairs, ask about newel post replacement, balustrade spacing under 100 mm for child safety, and matching the existing timber profile.
Questions to ask during the first visit
Ask which timber they recommend and why, whether they will machine it off-site or build on-site, and how they will deal with uneven walls or floors. Request the exact thickness of shelves, the type of hinges, and the finish on handles. Clear answers now prevent expensive changes after the units are already cut.
Doors, frames and ironmongery
Choose solid core or engineered doors for stability over hollow core. Specify hinges rated for the door weight; 3 hinges on doors above 1981 mm tall reduce drop. Discuss latch type, backset and whether you need fire-rated hinges. Confirm who supplies handles, locks and stops and whether cylinders are insurance approved.
How to check a joiner before hiring
Ask for proof of public liability insurance and any trade body membership. Request photos of recent work similar to yours and at least 2 references you can call. Check online reviews older than 6 months to spot patterns. Confirm the business name, address and VAT status match the quote document before you sign anything.
Doors, frames, and ironmongery
Replacing an internal door means checking the frame for twist and the latch position. A joiner can plane a sticking door on site in 20 to 30 minutes, but a new door takes 2 hours including hinges and a 65 mm latch. Specify whether you want fire-rated doors on ground floor landings to meet building rules.
