With an unparalleled degree of personalisation and excellence, custom woodworking represents the height of individual expression in home furnishings. It gives you the chance to genuinely customise your living space and enjoy unmatched ease.

At Canterbury Timbers & Building Supplies, we know how important it is to make furniture that precisely complements your house and way of life.

With a focus on the advantages of custom timber cuts and finishes, this guide will assist and inspire you as you design and construct unique furniture items.

The Benefits of Custom Woodworking

Imagine having furniture that is custom-made to your exact requirements, fits your space like a glove, and embodies both your personal flair and practical demands. This is what custom woodworking promises to deliver; a smooth fusion of creativity, accuracy, and modification that turns your house into a unique retreat.

Compared to the one-size-fits-all philosophy of mass-produced furniture, custom woodworking offers three significant advantages:

• Customisation: Make furniture according to your precise specifications, including size and design.
• Quality: Handcrafted items are expertly constructed and meticulously detailed.
• Originality: Craft one-of-a-kind items that are memorable and resonate deeply.
  

The Design Process in Custom Woodworking

Creating bespoke furniture is a team effort that turns your idea into a functional piece of art. To choose the ideal timber, design features, and finishes, the specialists at Canterbury Timbers collaborate directly with you, talking about your needs, ideas, and sources of inspiration.

Canterbury Timbers offer the highest-quality and most diverse selection of timber ensuring your tools and hardware are high-quality. Our inventory includes a vast selection of hardwood and softwood, including Treated Pine, Cedar, Pine, Merbau, Engineered Timber (such as LVL and Red Alert), Mouldings, Decking, and Flooring.
