Bespoke Furniture Designers & Builders

The bespoke furniture process begins with the client who should be clearly outlining a general description of the piece which is to be commissioned. The carpenter will then ask a number of questions to establish the function and purpose of the piece and visit the client's home to see the actual room and show samples of polished timber and other materials. Bespoke furniture design and manufacture is a complex and skilled process, so the carpenter will ask for as much information as possible and will make alternative suggestions to try and resolve any technical details or other issues. The carpenter at this point will also discuss budget, prices and time scale, then will produce a detailed quotation, perhaps including a range of price options if applicable.

Professional carpenters can build furniture to suit any style or budget, though will obviously be much more expensive than furniture which is mass produced on a production line. However many feel the extra cost is worth paying for, to have a unique piece designed specifically for their homes and built by a master craftsman.

Bespoke Furniture Price Guide

Offering a bespoke design and building process obviously makes it difficult to provide an accurate price guide. This is of course due to the diversity of materials which can be used and the uniqueness of every design. It goes without saying that bespoke furniture pieces will always be more expensive than those mass produced items found on the high street. When it comes to bespoke furniture every quotation is tailored specifically to the individual customer's requirements. That being said, some fairly typical examples of bespoke furniture costs for other customers include built-in alcove cabinets with book casings from £1800 to £2800, home offices from around £2000, 3m to 4m wardrobes start around £3500, complete kitchens from £8000 upwards and individual furniture items from £1000.

Choosing a Carpenter to Build Bespoke Furniture

The best way to find a good carpenter is of course through recommendation from someone you trust. That way you can inspect examples of their work and speak to previous customers. However, when it comers to bespoke furniture, this is a specialisation within the carpentry profession, so you should always hire a carpenter with recent relevant experience wherever possible. There's no point employing somebody who's put up fencing for the last 10 years if you want someone to build a beautiful piece of bespoke furniture! Begin by using the free quote service on this site to have 3 or more carpenters near you get in touch with quotes so you can easily compare prices for the project.

When choosing carpenters it is always a good idea to check if they are accredited with a national trade organisation such as the Federation of Master Builders, as this means they will have already gone through a vetting process to ensure they're reliable. The cost will come down to the labour and time involved, as well as the skills and experience of the carpenter, so before work begins draw up a written contract with your carpenter listing the work to be carried out along with timescale to complete the job and the total price.
