Hi
Could anyone advise if this quote seems reasonable please? We're in the East Midlands.
We've been quoted to remove old stairs and landing banisters, handrails etc and replace with new oak handrails & baserails (1 x 3m and 1 x 1.6m), 2 newel posts plus a half newel and 28 spindles.Also to replace skirting boards on landing. Materials have been quoted at £700 ish and labour £400.
We've been advised the job should take 2 days.
We're struggling to find another joiner to come out and quote so have nothing to compare against so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

£200 a day is reasonable for a joiner, and you probably have an idea already of materials cost so on the face of it sounds good, obviously do your due diligence etcNever, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.0
