THE DETAILS OF YOUR VISIT
Ashtead: questions about this scenario
Can a tall unit always be raised after assembly?
No. Its dimensions, room clearance and instructions determine whether that approach is suitable. Share the actual ceiling height before relying on it.
What if the manual specifies upright construction?
Include that requirement in the enquiry. Working space and access around the unit should be planned for the stated method.
Should the room contain only the wardrobe boxes?
Explain what remains rather than assuming complete clearance. The available floor must still suit safe component handling and the assembly sequence.
Can an optional drawer pack be added?
Send its model reference and confirm it belongs to the wardrobe. Additional internal fittings affect the assembly scope and product completeness.
Does wall restraint wait until another visit?
Raise the manufacturer’s requirement before booking. Appropriate fixing and permission need consideration as part of making the product ready for use.
What if the floor area is smaller than expected?
Provide an updated photograph before work is planned around it. An alternative method is not guaranteed simply because the finished unit fits.
Can the old wardrobe be dismantled too?
Describe that separately with its size and condition. Dismantling or disposal should not be assumed within the new wardrobe assembly.
Will missing panels be made on site?
Do not expect substitute components as standard assembly. Identify missing or damaged parts and discuss supplier replacement or revised work.
How is a tall-unit quotation decided?
The specified method, configuration, access and any handling or attachment requirements determine the reviewed work rather than height alone.
