Estimates
-
We
provide a guide as to how long the assembly might take based on what
you have told us and indicate the approximate cost.
-
Our
estimates are accurate on 97% of the jobs we do (see customer satisfaction results).
-
WE DO NOT PROVIDE A FIXED PRICE QUOTE FOR ANY
WORK
Typical Exceptions
-
Time
to carry boxes from say your garage or out house to a bedroom
-
We
need a clear space to work:
-
We
might have to clear a space to work in or constantly move your
possessions.
-
Small
or confined spaces make jobs take longer*.
-
If
a wardrobe cannot be assembled lying down, it takes longer and may need
two people.
-
The
furniture you buy differs from the furniture you told us you wanted
assembling i.e.
-
A
bedside table with 3 drawers takes longer than a bedside table with no
drawers OR
-
A
basic wardrobe is a lot quicker than a wardrobe with multiple internal
drawers, trouser racks, tie racks etc.
* We
need at least 30cm / 1ft so we can move around each unit when it is
lying down during assembly - see table below:
|
Unit Size |
Space Required |
Smaller Spaces |
| Metric - 2.4m high
x 1m wide |
3m x 1.6m |
This may increase the time
and in some cases double the time is required. |
|
Imperial -
8ft high x 3ft wide |
10ft x 5ft |
We charge by the hour?
-
Yes
you pay for the time we take, we do the job quickly and well.
-
It
is more cost effective to pay by the hour
-
Companies
charging in half or quarter hours often rush finishing off the assembly
or sneak in an extra unit over cup of tea or idle chat, we don't.
-
We
don't quibble over five minutes either.
-
Companies
charging fixed prices based on the unit, either
-
price
on how impressive the unit looks rather than the work involved, or
-
price
on the cost of the unit which is unfair a bed usually takes 20-30
minutes regardless of how much you paid for it?

We charge by the hour, and are quick. In less
than six hours we have assembled and installed 4 x Ikea PAX wardrobes
with a range of drawers and internal fittings from the Komplement
range. To put this into perspective, this is how long it takes some
people to assemble just one wardrobe!
