Material Procurement & Consumables Policy

To prevent hidden retail markups and eliminate supply-run billable downtime, Drabento operates on three explicit material sourcing rules:

1. Client Supplied

You purchase the aesthetic finishings: light fixtures, faucets, mirrors, cabinet pulls, or shelving units. We inspect specifications upon arrival and mount them with precision.

2. Van Stock Consumables

Standard installation consumables—Teflon tape, solder, wire nuts, shims, hollow-wall anchors, framing screws, and sealants—are stocked in the van and included in hourly rates.

3. Sourced at Cost

When specific replacement parts (commercial hinges, brass valves, PVC cleanout plugs) are needed, we source them directly from trade suppliers and pass the cost through with original receipt.
