Win more kitchen work — follow up the quotes that go quiet
You spec'd the kitchen, sent the quote… and heard nothing. A new kitchen is a big, considered spend, so they'll compare a few fitters — a friendly nudge keeps you top of the list, and Chas'up makes sure you send it.
The kitchen quotes that go quiet
High-value jobs that customers mull over:
- Full kitchen installs & refits
- Worktops (laminate, quartz & solid)
- Units, doors & handle upgrades
- Appliance & sink fitting
- Tiling, splashbacks & flooring
- Knock-throughs & “while we're in” extras
A kitchen is one of the biggest jobs a customer buys — exactly the kind of quote they sit on, and exactly the kind you can't let slip.
Why kitchen fitters lose quoted work
A new kitchen is thousands of pounds and a big decision, so customers take their time and compare fitters. That gap is when the quote goes cold — and the fitter who checks back, helpfully, usually gets the job.
How to chase a kitchen quote (without being pushy)
Send a friendly nudge around three days after the quote, then widen the gaps. Keep it helpful, not salesy — offer to talk it through or revisit the spec, and give them an easy out. A quick WhatsApp or text gets seen far faster than email. Here's the kind of thing that works:
Cheers,
[Your name] ([Business])

Let Chas'up do the chasing
The hard part isn't writing the chase — it's remembering to when you've got units to order and fits to schedule. Chas'up keeps a list of your open quotes, tells you who to chase today (with the £ on the line), drafts the message in your words, and opens WhatsApp, text or email ready to go. You read it and press send — nothing fires off on its own, and it stops the second you mark a job won or lost.
