What is included
Carpenter services for homes, offices and shops: door repairs, wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, custom joinery, wall panelling, pergolas and decking. Timber moves in Dubai. Doors swell in the humid months and shrink under constant AC, hinges pull out of board carcasses, and sun and irrigation water bleach and split outdoor wood. Our carpenters repair what can be repaired, make new pieces to measure and match veneers and finishes as closely as the material allows.
- Site measure and drawings for your approval
- Materials, finishes and hardware agreed in writing
- Made and installed by our own carpenters
- Scribed to walls and floors for a built in finish
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.

Questions about custom joinery
What does custom joinery include?
Made to measure pieces designed around the room, such as media walls, bookcases, vanity units, study desks and shop counters. Chosen when standard furniture will not fit. The work includes site measure and drawings for your approval; materials, finishes and hardware agreed in writing; made and installed by our own carpenters.
How much does custom joinery cost in Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides custom joinery in Dubai?
The MELLS provides custom joinery in Dubai. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does custom joinery take?
Typically 1 to 4 hours for most repairs, with made to measure joinery quoted per project, typically 1 to 3 weeks. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Do you make fitted wardrobes and custom joinery?
We do. We measure on site, agree drawings, materials and hardware with you, then make and install the piece. The programme is stated in the quotation.
Does a pergola or deck need approval?
It may, depending on the community and on the size and position of the structure. This is identified at the site visit, and we prepare the paperwork the community or master developer asks for.
Can a carpenter visit Dubai for one small repair?
Yes. A single sticking door or a loose hinge is a normal booking for us. We are open from 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday and work across Dubai.
Can you match my existing wood colour and finish?
We match species, stain and sheen as closely as the material allows and show you a sample before finishing. An exact match to aged or sun faded timber is not always possible, and we tell you that before we start.
Why do my doors stick in summer?
Timber takes in moisture when the air is humid and gives it up when the AC runs for long hours, so it swells and shrinks through the year. Sealing every face of the door, including the top and bottom edges, reduces the movement.
How do I choose a company for custom joinery in Dubai?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (a measured test for every job, with photographs before and after) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
How do I prepare for custom joinery?
Clear access to the units, panels or areas to be worked on and note any faults you have noticed. The supervisor confirms anything else at the site visit.
Do I need to provide any products or equipment?
No. Products, tools and machines come with the crew. Any materials the job needs, such as paint or parts, are listed in the written quotation.
What if I am not happy with the result?
Tell the supervisor at handover or call us. Anything that fails our check is put right free of charge within 48 hours.
