How it works
A clear, simple process from first idea to delivery
Whether you're a homeowner with a trusted fitter, building an extension or working as a builder or installer, here's how a supply-only project with Dobbs & Co. works.
Six steps
Your project, step by step
Step 1: Send us your measurements
Send us room measurements, architect's or builder's plans, or simply photographs with rough sizes. Our online form accepts images and PDFs, and you can send more later.
Step 2: Talk through your ideas
We'll discuss the styles, colours and finishes you like, how you use the room, the appliances you need and any must-haves. Share inspiration pictures if you have them.
Step 3: Receive your design and quotation
We prepare an initial layout and a clear, itemised quotation. There's no charge for this first design and quote, and no obligation to go ahead.
Step 4: Review and approve
Together we refine the design until you're happy. Before ordering, you and your fitter check and approve the final dimensions, specification and price in writing.
Step 5: Place your order
Once the specification is signed off, you place your order. Payment terms, lead times and delivery arrangements are confirmed in writing at this stage.
Step 6: Delivery, ready for your fitter
Your cabinetry is prepared and delivered ready for installation by your own fitter or builder. We supply the furniture. Installation is arranged by you.
Important
What supply-only means for you
Clear responsibilities make for a smoother project. Please read these points before ordering.
Installation is arranged by you
We supply cabinetry and related products only. You arrange installation with your own fitter, joiner or builder, and they're responsible for the installation work.
Final measurements must be checked
Initial measurements let us design and quote. Before ordering, final site measurements must be taken and checked, ideally by your fitter, so that bespoke items are made to the right sizes.
Specification approval before ordering
Nothing is ordered until you've approved the final dimensions, specification and price in writing. Please check this carefully, because bespoke items are made to the approved details.
Questions
Common questions about the process
What does supply-only mean?
We design and supply your kitchen or bedroom cabinetry and related products, and you arrange installation with your own fitter, joiner or builder. We don't provide an installation service.
Is the initial design and quotation really free?
Yes. Your first design and quotation are free and there's no obligation to order. Send us your measurements or plans and we'll take it from there.
Who is responsible for measuring?
Your initial measurements or plans let us prepare a design and quotation. Before you order, final site measurements and the full specification must be checked and approved, usually by you and your fitter. Ordering is based on the approved dimensions.
Which areas do you cover?
We're based in Scunthorpe and work with customers across Scunthorpe and the surrounding areas. If you're further afield, get in touch and we'll let you know if we can help.
Do you work with builders and independent fitters?
Yes. We're happy to work directly with builders, developers and independent installers, as well as homeowners who have their own fitter.
How long does it take from order to delivery?
Lead times depend on the range, finishes and size of your project. We'll give you an expected lead time with your quotation and confirm it when you order.
