General Carpentry, Repairs & Assembly in Tavira

As of November 2026, carpentry visits in Tavira cost €50 for the first hour and €40 for each hour after it, or a fixed price per service, with door planing from €50 and flat-pack assembly from €40.

Humidity changes in the Algarve during winter can cause wooden doors, shutters, and gates to expand, stick, or misalign. On top of natural wood movement, flat-pack furniture assembly and kitchen cabinet updates require precise measurements, heavy-duty fixings, and proper alignment to ensure longevity.

What We Provide:

Door & Lock Adjustments: Planing swollen wooden doors, trimming bottoms after new flooring installation, replacing latches, and adjusting misaligned strikes.
Flat-Pack Assembly: Assembly of wardrobes, bed frames, desks, and shelving units from IKEA, Leroy Merlin, JYSK, or online retailers.
Kitchen & Cabinet Repairs: Hinge replacements, soft-close retrofitting, drawer runner repairs, and worktop cutouts for sinks or hobs.
Skirting, Architraves & Trim: Precision mitred joints, installing new skirting boards, repair of damaged timber trim, and curtain pole wall mounting.

Carpentry & Woodwork FAQ

Why does my wooden door stick in the winter but catch less in summer?

Algarve winter humidity causes untreated timber to absorb ambient moisture and expand slightly within the door frame. We electric plane the specific sticking edges and treat the exposed timber edge to prevent future swelling.

Can you assemble furniture I purchased from IKEA Loulé or Leroy Merlin?

Yes. We regularly assemble flat-pack furniture from all major brands, ensuring sturdy construction, square alignment, and secure wall anchoring where needed for safety.

Can you fit new soft-close hinges or fix sagging kitchen drawers?

Absolutely. We replace worn cupboard hinges, retrofit soft-close dampers, and replace broken ball-bearing drawer runners to make old kitchen units operate like new.

Do you repair wooden window shutters (persianas / portadas)?

Yes, we perform timber shutter maintenance including re-aligning dropped hinges, replacing broken slats, fitting new catches, and re-hanging warped wooden shutters.
