As some of you know, I do kitchen stuff. This evening I called on some people who wanted a quote for-
Two wall units (cupboards) approx 1200mm wide (each), maybe 500mm high and 300 mm deep. Four doors in the Shaker style, but with heat-tempered 4mm glass (legal requirement) instead of the wooden centre panel. The price was to include hardware and installation. Painted finish.
How much and how long would it take?
I thought about it, and said that it wasn't going to be less than £600. They weren't exactly aghast, but it was obvious that they hah had a much lower price in mind. They thanked me and apologised for wasting my time, I said it was OK, and didn't say that I hadn't fancied the job even at that price.
So, what do you think, too much? too little?
Materials, BTW, 18mm birch ply for the cabinets, 19mm ash veneered MDF for the doors. Blum concealed hinges
