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:

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?

Guarantee

• Each assembler Guarantees the quality of their work

• From time to time problems will occur

• Remedial action to rectify any problems with our work will be done ASAP at no extra charge

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!
