Repair or replace: compare landed costs

Enter written prices for one furniture item or the same item group. Unknown does not mean free. The tool does not generate a market price or decide whether a repair is safe.

1. Repair quote

Use the complete agreed repair price for the same item(s), not a starting price or hourly rate. Use digits and a dot for decimals; do not use commas or currency symbols.

Confirm transport, inspection and extras

Use one tax basis for every amount in this option. Choose no VAT only if the provider confirms in writing that it is not VAT-registered / charges no VAT.

2. Comparable replacement

Choose a real replacement meeting your requirements. A lower specification may not be a meaningful alternative. Use digits and a dot for decimals; do not use commas or currency symbols.

Confirm delivery, assembly, disposal and extras

Use one tax basis for every amount in this option. Choose no VAT only if the provider confirms in writing that it is not VAT-registered / charges no VAT.

3. Landed cost comparison

Confirm all prices, included items and VAT before comparing landed totals. A known subtotal excludes unresolved charges and is not an all-in quote.

Price alone cannot establish repair suitability, remaining life, stability or value. There is no automatic “repair below X%” rule. Have unsafe or load-bearing damage assessed before using the furniture.

This compares total project costs, not balances still payable after deposits. Enter the net inspection fee after agreed credits; the tool does not infer a credit. Mixed VAT bases need to be normalised before entry. Choose “Already included” only when the item is inside the base or another entered charge, and “Not required” only when confirmed. These add nothing; blank and unknown items remain unresolved.
