Custom furniture and fitted wardrobes

Built-in wardrobes are measured on site, built in the workshop and fixed in place, so a site visit before quoting is normal. Discuss internals early — hanging rails, drawer boxes, shoe racks and a mirror all change the price more than the outside dimensions do.

Material choice matters here: solid mahogany, mvule and pine behave differently from MDF and blockboard with melamine finish, both in price and in how they handle humidity.

• Fitted and free-standing wardrobes
• Beds, dining sets, sofas frames and coffee tables
• Office desks, counters and reception units
• Bookshelves, TV units and storage

Kitchen units and countertops

A kitchen fit-out has to be coordinated with the plumber and electrician: sink waste, water points and socket positions must be agreed before the units are fixed. Carpenters usually build the carcasses first and fit doors and handles after the countertop is in place.

• Base and wall kitchen cabinets
• Pantry units and island builds
• Countertop fixing and edge finishing
• Soft-close hinges, runners and handles

Doors, frames and repairs

Doors that stick, sag or no longer lock are usually a hinge, frame or swelling problem rather than a reason to replace the whole door. Carpenters also hang new flush and panel doors, fit locks, and repair frames damaged by termites or water at the base.

• Lock, hinge and handle replacement
• Repair of sagging or swollen doors
• Window frames, louvre and burglar-proof timber work

Ceilings, partitions and finishing

Many carpenters in Uganda also handle timber-framed ceilings, gypsum partitions, cornices and skirting, plus sanding and polishing of existing furniture that only needs a refresh rather than replacement.
