Thanks Redoctober. I have just edited the images and re-uploaded them by removing any ornaments that may influence the aesthetics. You still like the top one?

So lads, I have to say thank you for the number of responses. Thanks for being so kind to take your time and help a newbie out. I got a question about Aesthetics. I took the original image from Sharps and have been tinkering in photoshop. Which do you think looks better: Square pigeon holes with 2 blank push caps on the left with 4-5 push caps cabinets along the bottom: Rectangular pigeon holes with no blanks on the left with 3-4 push cap cabinets along the bottom: The colour scheme I am going for is a deep sapphire blue instead of the black and a stone or dove grey instead of the rustic oak but it could also be a warmer wood

Ok im wiping Sharps out. Its an overwhelming response that they are clearly ripping me off.

Thanks MarkC! Appreciate the transparency. So the options are: - Find a joiner - Find another company that is like Sharps but cheaper (any recommendations?) - Go with Sharps Would you say the order of those options are best? Looks like the the creme de la creme option is joiner, MDF painted at £2000? Are there different types of MDF? and would this price include the 4 light fixings? I am in the Manchester area so looking for any recommendations of who else i can try?

I figured a reasonable and fair price for something like this would be around £2000 in all honesty. Type 1 MDF is that some marketing mumbo jumbo? I've heard Baltic Birch Ply is nice with a spray finish but that might be going too far and beyond my budget, which was closer to 2K Perhaps a moisture resistant MDF is fine here with a sprayed colour? £3200 feels dirty and well out of my budget. Are there any other retailers like Sharps that you guys can recommend? Would be grateful for any names.

Dear Community, I was wondering if you could advise if this is a fair price from Sharps regarding a TV/Entertainment unit I wanted building out for an Alcove area in the living room. I have attached an image of what the area looks like now and I have also attached an image of what Sharps are proposing. Sharps have said the units in the rustic oak and graphite colour with 4 lights will cost £3200.00. They said it was something called 'Type 1 MDF', which I think is some fancy marketing terms and I believe the MDF might be wrapped. Is this worth it? How much should I be paying for a job like this? Are there any other companies I can consider to come in and quote other than Sharps? Thank you for your time and help! Alcove Area: Sharps Proposal:
