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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
A joiner fits, repairs and builds wood items inside the house. Typical tasks include hanging internal doors, fitting skirting boards, building fitted wardrobes, repairing stair treads and replacing damaged floorboards. Some also assemble kitchen units, install loft hatches and frame small partitions. Ask for a written list of what is included before work starts.
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.
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.
Moisture content matters more than wood species. Joinery timber should arrive acclimatised for at least 7 days in the heated room where it will live. MDF skirting swells fast when wet, so keep packs off bare concrete. Ask the joiner to seal cut ends on stairs and sills before painting to block moisture.
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.
