Have Something Done

We use have + object + past participle to say that we have arranged for someone to do something for us. E.g. We had our bookcases made by the carpenter. (We didn’t make them ourselves selves. The carpenter made them for us.)

• Questions and negations of the verb have are formed with the auxiliary verbs (do, does, did, etc.) E.g. Did you have your car serviced?

• We can also use have something done to say that something unpleasant happened to somebody. E.g. Paul had his bike stolen yesterday, (= Paul’s bike was stolen.)

• We can use the verb get instead of the verb have only in informal conversation. E.g. You must get/have your hair cut this week.
