I don't know what your definition of reasonable is - I reckon a lot of people underestimate just how much work making and installing fitted wardrobes is personally - or how high end you want to go. But. We got three quotes from the people below:
Karl Rees
Nick McAuley
Ola Leander (who @dbr had done some work with)In the end although Ola was slightly more expensive we went with him and were very happy with the end result. Spray lacquered with inset English elm (ignore the marks on the first photo, they're from the phone that took the picture so aren't really there). The top set of doors have a pull down wardrobe rail behind which is very practical and a great way to maximise use of space.
They were constructed and finished off site then installed, as @Airhead says that's the way to do it.
Ola is no longer in the business of built in stuff but we would genuinely have happily gone with one of the other two who were also recommended to us as they seemed really good too.
I think getting some decent ones installed before Christmas could be a challenge to be honest but good luck. @BQ knows a friendly carpenter so you might want to ask him too.

Looks good, but he forgot to put the scribe piece at the top!

These are fantastic. I fancy building a bike cupboard out of an old airing cupboard space. mdf it. Anyone who knows what they are doing have any tips? Measure twice cut once and all that... Plan is to half the space with a big vertical piece and then bang in some shelves. Prob just crude joins/supports. What can go wrong? (I have a powersaw).

Shamelessly cross posting from the Home DIY thread because we have a baby arriving at Christmas and we are getting desperate.
We need a decent carpenter to do us some fitted wardrobes and alcove cabinets before xmas in SE4.
Does anyone have a recommendation of someone who is
a - good
b - reasonable
c - available...?
