Bespoke work, bespoke deposit
A fitted wardrobe cut to someone's alcove has no resale value if they change their mind. Take a deposit that covers the timber and the machine time before the first cut, then invoice on fit.
Overdue invoices chase themselves.

One room now, the rest later
A customer who trusts you with the study comes back for the bedroom and the boot room. Keep the drawings, the finishes and the ironmongery on the job so the next room matches without measuring twice.

Running a carpentry and joinery business
Fitted joinery is measured to the millimetre and fits exactly one alcove in the country. Nothing you cut has any resale value, which is why the money has to move before the saw does.
The specification is the job
Handles, hinge type, drawer runners, sheen level, grain direction and whether the plinth is scribed to a floor that is nowhere near level. Every one of those is a detail the customer will later remember agreeing to differently.
Write it down and have it approved before the timber is ordered. An approved specification settles the conversation that a quote alone never does.
Anything after that is a priced variation rather than a favour. Fitted work absorbs an extraordinary amount of unpriced goodwill if you let it.
What belongs on a joinery job before cutting starts
- A deposit that covers the timber and the sheet goods
- Approved drawings with the critical dimensions marked
- The ironmongery schedule, down to the hinge
- The finish, the sheen level and who is applying it
- Site readiness, because nothing fits around a floor still being laid
- Lead times for anything ordered in, given to the customer in weeks
- A fitting date that does not depend on another trade running to time
Bench days and fitting days are two diaries
A carpenter running fitted work is scheduling machining time in the workshop and fitting time on site and overbooking either one leaves the other standing idle.
A survey, a set of drawings and a machining run all happen weeks before anybody sees a van outside the house. Plan backwards from the fitting date and the customer stops asking why nothing appears to be happening.
The second room is the profitable one
A customer who trusts you with the study hands over the bedroom, then the boot room, then the understairs. No pitch, no measure against three other quotes and no price pressure.
That only happens if the drawings, the timber, the finish and the ironmongery from the first room are still on file. Matching an existing run from memory is how a second room goes wrong in front of the person who recommended you.
What quietly eats a joinery margin
- A survey that missed a wall out of square by fifteen millimetres
- Ironmongery agreed verbally and then ordered wrong
- A finish changed after spraying because the customer saw the sample in daylight
- Sheet goods bought at this year prices and quoted at last year ones
- Fitting days lost waiting on a plasterer or an electrician
- Snagging visits nobody costed into the job
