Bespoke Cabinetry is a very personal process and the first step is about exploring whether this is a good fit. The questions below are worth considering as you enquire:

- Does this project need to be custom-made?

- Do you want to commission a project that reflects precision, quality and care as a priority over a fixed timeframe?

- Do you value a collaborative process with clear and respectful communication?

- Are you open to working with the natural flow & timing of the project?

- Are your expectations clear, and are you comfortable discussing them openly?

The aim of this step is to see if I am the right provider for you, and to establish whether this project will work.

A quote can be provided from rough measurements, an idea of style or finish, and any particular features that are required.

For bespoke cabinetry, the starting price is approx. €3,000 incl. VAT with an increase between €1,200 and €1,500 per linear wall metre depending on spec.

Specialist joinery & hardware are added to this as needed.

For joinery projects outside of cabinetry, the cost is worked out by listing out materials and estimating timeframes for each process involved. This process takes time.

Once a quote is supplied & agreed the next step is a Booking Deposit. This places the project into my next open slot and we begin the Design phase.

The length of this phase largely depends on the level of clarity that we can achieve together. The better the fit, the clearer we will be.

This is a closed phase, meaning that timeframes and manufacture methods remain open & unconfirmed until the design is complete.

Once all details have been confirmed, we have an agreed scope of work.

Materials are ordered upon receipt of the Manufacture Deposit.

Drawings and design are now complete and the project is being brought to life.

Everything is cut, joined, pre-assembled and checked in the workshop before finish or paint is applied.

Carcasses are then disassembled and packed; painting and finishing now takes place.

Changes during this time are very disruptive and normally mean a new scope of work and quotation.

All materials and hardware are delivered to site and installed with care, one section at a time.

Easy access to the space is necessary. Keys & timing are worked out in advance.

Walls, plumbing and electrical grounds need to be in the correct position before installation.

Close communication during this time is helpful for any issues that arise.

The remaining balance is due at the outset of this phase.

Everything is installed to the agreed spec and we review the finished product together.

Care tips are provided to maintain the cabinetry’s beauty and function.

Photographs are taken of the joinery in place.
