• A question that I realise probably has too many variables to get an answer to:

    Is £1300 a reasonable price for a fitted cupboard in a bathroom?
    It’s tall and narrow (2380 x 205) and in an awkward space between shower and wall, with two doors and a slatted wood finish.
    At a guess it’s 2 days to prep/paint and another day to fit, with the materials being pre-cut, so I can see how it got to that amount, materials cost depending. Still about double what I had in my head though…

  • sounds cheap, it’s about £1k per meter for decent custom build in cupboards. once you have 3 days work and vat there isn’t much left for materials/paint. maybe go and see how much sealer/primer/top coat/MDF/planed timber is to buy.

  • tall and narrow (2380 x 205)

    Hang on, 20cm wide?

    That is very narrow. Is it worth it? Also why 2 doors?

    Do you have the diy skills to stack 3 of these METODs on top of each other?

    Some nice hinges and custom doors. Should still be under £500 all in. You could even get a handyman to fit and adjust the doors.

    Or have I totally misunderstood the dimensions?
