About Joiner
Materials, finishes, and moisture
Kitchens and bathrooms need moisture-resistant MDF or plywood, not standard MDF, which swells within weeks if it gets wet. Finished faces should be factory-sprayed lacquer rather than hand-painted on site, which marks easily. For shelves longer than 800 mm, ask for 25 mm thickness to prevent sag under books or storage.
How long the work usually takes
Hanging a single internal door with new frame usually takes 3 to 5 hours. A full house of doors, frames and skirting often needs 2 to 4 working days. Built-in wardrobes can take 3 to 5 days depending on size and finish. Stair refurbishment usually spans 4 to 7 days including drying time.
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.
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.
What a joiner does in the home
A joiner builds, fits, and repairs timber items that are made to measure. This includes wardrobes, alcove shelving, under-stair drawers, bookcases, internal doors, frames, and small structural repairs to wooden floors or stairs. Most work is done off-site in a workshop and then installed in a few hours at the property.
Warranty, guarantees, and paperwork
Ask for a written guarantee of at least 12 months on workmanship. Timber movement, such as small cracks in solid oak, is natural and usually excluded, so read the small print. Keep the quote, drawings, and material list together; they are useful if the unit ever needs a replacement door or matching shelf.
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.
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.
Common problems and how to avoid them
Doors that stick in summer but gap in winter signal frames fitted before timber stabilised. Skirting lifting at corners usually means poor mitre joints or damp walls. Squeaky stairs often trace back to loose wedges under the tread. Insist on a second visit after 2 weeks to adjust and tighten fittings.
How long the work usually takes
A survey and quote visit takes 45 minutes to 1 hour. Off-site manufacture runs 2 to 4 weeks for most fitted furniture. Installation of one wardrobe takes 3 to 5 hours; a full room of shelving can take 1 to 2 days. Allow an extra day for snagging, touching up paint, and fitting handles.
