    Prob half a days work. Bet you'd be looking at around 80.

    I would suggest more. The three wardrobes need to be altered as well as assembled. If they need to be reduced in height, the hinge locations may need to be moved etc which is a lot more than half a day. Allow 1 - 1 1/2 days. Upto £250
