Pricing
Every piece of furniture is different. So is every quote. Here's how I think about pricing, and why I need to know your piece before I can give you a real number.
My promise to you
"I want to give you an accurate price, not a ballpark that shifts once I see the piece. To do that, I need to understand what I'm actually working with."
Furniture pricing isn't like buying a product off a shelf. Two dressers that look identical from the outside can represent completely different amounts of work once I start. The timber, the finish, the condition, the detail. All of it matters. A small pair of shelves with tight curves and a complex colour match can take longer than a large flat-faced wardrobe.
That's why I don't publish set prices. What I do instead is take the time to understand your piece properly, ask the right questions, and come back with a quote that reflects the actual work involved, broken down so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
What the piece is made of changes everything about how I work with it.
Bigger doesn't always mean harder. Detail and geometry matter more than dimensions.
What's on the piece now determines how much work goes into getting it off.
Both require different processes.
Structural and surface issues need to be addressed before any finishing can happen.
Kitchen, bathroom, doors and cupboards have their own set of variables.
I don't believe in vague estimates that change once work starts. My quotes are detailed, honest, and locked in, so you can make a real decision with real information.
The more detail you give me upfront, the faster and more accurate your quote will be. Photos are really helpful. Even quick phone snaps showing the overall piece, any damage, and the areas of most detail.
Once I've quoted, you've got four weeks to decide. No pressure, no follow-up calls, no expiry tricks.
Tell me about your piece: what it is, what condition it's in, what you're hoping for. Upload some photos if you can.
I'll likely have a few follow-up questions to make sure I understand the job properly before quoting.
Broken down by what's involved, so you can see exactly what you're paying for and why.
That price won't change. Take your time. When you're ready, I'll book it in.
The more detail you can give me, the more accurate your quote will be. Photos are genuinely the most helpful thing. Even a few quick snaps make a big difference.
I'll come back to you within a couple of days.
