  • Looking to remove the previous owner's built in wardrobes in 2 rooms. One room will be replaced with IKEA Pax system, the other with bookcases and bench to create a sort of reading nook.

    I can't tell if this could be a DIY job or I'll end up pulling down plaster and fucking it all up.

    Pictures attached - looks to be glued to the wall/skirting and then a timber frame for the doors/rails/shelf. Logic tells me a good electric saw with a thin blade, then carefully take back what is left with another tool should give me something good to work with? Or should I just put it on my tab and get someone in?

  • I wouldn’t have vast confidence taking that on, but if I did I would go at it carefully with a multitool rather than a regular saw. Perhaps that’s what you meant.

  • Yeah I'm completely out my depth when it comes to DIY terminology. In my head it was something resembling a handheld jigsaw but something a little more powerful/less brittle. I suppose best person to get a quote from here would be a joiner or a carpenter?
