Realistic budget for materials, time of job and costs of the time

Posted by Mike Cawood-Campbell, on
I want 2 floor to ceiling shelving unit constructing and fitting to store cds and books. Two walls are floor to ceiling roughly 240cm x 380cm, 240cm x 200cm, and a third 240cm long but perhaps 150cm heigh. My preference is for this to be made of MDF. I just have no idea of cost of materials or cost of workmanship. Can you give me guidance? There are heating pipes a long the skirting boards. The larger area goes into the slope of the ceiling so will be graded down.

It would depend on how done but you should expect to pay around £750 to max £1000 for each one. This would be build and fitted including materials. Hope this helps
