Carpentry for the pieces no catalogue covers.

The awkward alcove, the sloping wall, the unit that has to work around a beam. Built to your shell, not to a standard size.

The short answer

What custom carpentry costs in Bengaluru.

Custom carpentry and woodwork in Bengaluru costs ₹1,200 to ₹2,800 per square foot of finished surface. Factory-built joinery costs slightly more per foot than on-site carpentry but is more accurate, faster to install and produces no dust in your home.

What matters here

Factory-built versus site carpentry.

The honest comparison, including where site work still wins.

01

Factory is more accurate

CNC-cut panels are accurate to a fraction of a millimetre. A carpenter cutting on your balcony with a circular saw cannot match that, and the difference shows in every shutter gap.

02

Factory is cleaner and quieter

No cutting on site means no sawdust through the house and far less noise. In an apartment with working-hour restrictions, this alone often decides the timeline.

03

Site carpentry still wins sometimes

A genuinely irregular space — a sloping ceiling, an out-of-square alcove, an old building with no straight walls — is sometimes better scribed in place. We will say so when that is the case.

04

Edge banding is where the difference shows

Factory units get 2mm machine-applied banding. Hand-applied banding on site lifts within two monsoons. This is the most visible long-term difference between the two approaches.

How we do it

The parts that decide whether it lasts.

Renovation failures are almost always sequencing or preparation, not materials.

BWR plywood, never MDF in wet zones

Boiling-water-resistant ply as the standard carcass, upgraded to BWP anywhere near water.

2mm edge banding on every visible edge

Machine applied. The edge is where joinery ages first, and thin banding lifts within two Bengaluru monsoons.

Hettich or Hafele hardware throughout

On every moving part, not just the doors you see when the unit is closed.

Anti-termite and anti-borer treated

Every panel, before it reaches you. On ground and first floors this is what separates ten-year joinery from four-year joinery.

Step by step

How the work runs.

Sequenced so nothing has to be done twice.

Survey and scope

A site visit that records what is actually there, not what the plan says. Older buildings hide surprises and we would rather find them before quoting than after starting.

Sequenced plan

Civil, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, then finishes. Renovation goes wrong when trades overlap in the wrong order, and that order is not negotiable.

Execution

One project manager, one WhatsApp group, daily photographs. You know what happened on site every day without having to ask.

Handover

Snag list closed in writing, debris cleared to the building's designated point, and every warranty document handed over together.

Good questions

Questions worth asking first.

Usually, yes. CNC cutting is far more accurate, there is no dust in your home, and machine-applied 2mm edge banding lasts much longer than hand-applied banding. The exception is a genuinely irregular space, where scribing in place can give a better fit.

Per square foot of finished surface, from ₹1,200 to ₹2,800 depending on carcass grade, finish and hardware. Ask for the rate and the total area separately — a single lump sum tells you nothing about what you are getting.

BWR (boiling water resistant) as the general standard, BWP anywhere near water. Avoid MDF and particle board for carcasses entirely — they swell permanently once water reaches the core.

Seven to twenty-five days depending on scope. Most of that is factory production; on-site installation is usually two to four days and produces very little disruption.

Laminate and veneer can usually be matched closely if the original is still in production. An exact match on older or discontinued material is rarely possible, and we would rather tell you that upfront than deliver something almost right.
