About Joiner
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.
Preparing the home before the joiner arrives
Clear the work area and move small furniture 1 day before installation. The joiner needs a clear run from the door to the wall, about 1 metre wide, to bring in boards safely. Keep pets and children out of the room. Confirm where the dust sheet will go and where the van can park for unloading heavy sheets.
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.
Materials, finishes and moisture
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
How to check a joiner before hiring
Ask for 2 or 3 photos of past work that match your job, not just their best piece. A reliable joiner gives a written quote with materials, labour, and finishing listed separately. Confirm they carry public liability insurance, usually at least 1 million, and ask for a start date and finish date in writing before any deposit is paid.
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.
