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.

The awkward alcove, the sloping wall, the unit that has to work around a beam. Built to your shell, not to a standard size.
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.
The honest comparison, including where site work still wins.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Renovation failures are almost always sequencing or preparation, not materials.
Boiling-water-resistant ply as the standard carcass, upgraded to BWP anywhere near water.
Machine applied. The edge is where joinery ages first, and thin banding lifts within two Bengaluru monsoons.
On every moving part, not just the doors you see when the unit is closed.
Every panel, before it reaches you. On ground and first floors this is what separates ten-year joinery from four-year joinery.
Sequenced so nothing has to be done twice.
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.
Civil, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, then finishes. Renovation goes wrong when trades overlap in the wrong order, and that order is not negotiable.
One project manager, one WhatsApp group, daily photographs. You know what happened on site every day without having to ask.
Snag list closed in writing, debris cleared to the building's designated point, and every warranty document handed over together.
Per square foot of finished surface, including hardware and installation.
BWR carcass with laminate finish, soft-close hardware, 2mm banding.
BWP where needed, matte laminate or acrylic, tandem drawers, internal lighting ready.
Veneer or PU finish, Blum hardware, integrated lighting, bespoke detailing.

Priced on finished surface area. Complex shapes, curves and scribed work are quoted after a site measure.
The most common custom carpentry job in a Bengaluru home.
See storageUsually, 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.
We work across Bengaluru, and we quote after seeing the site — never over the phone.
With rough dimensions. Awkward corners are the ones worth building for.
