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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Gaps between units and the wall are the most common complaint, caused by old houses with uneven plaster. A good joiner scribes the end panel to the wall profile instead of leaving a straight gap. Ask how they plan to handle this before the timber is cut, because scribing cannot be done afterwards.
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.
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.
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.
