Trades & finishing
Woodwork & kitchens estimate
Estimate woodwork costs in Lahore — doors, kitchen cabinets and wardrobes — by material.
What affects the price
- Wood type — solid, ply, MDF or HDF
- Finish — lacquer, polish, laminate
- Hardware (hinges, runners)
- Design complexity
- Workshop vs on-site work
Good to know
- All rates come from one Lahore source; other Pakistani pages found were pre-2025 sheet or per-cft wood prices and were not used.
- Solid wood prices swing with species and seasoning.
- Kitchen rates exclude countertops, sinks and appliances.
- Islamabad/Rawalpindi labour runs about 15% higher; DHA jobs about 6% higher.
How we calculate
We researched current rates from several Pakistani suppliers, contractors, price lists and market reports in October 2026 and use the low and high end of what we found. Your inputs are multiplied by those rates to give a range, not a single figure. Labour, transport, taxes and your exact specification can move the final price, so treat the result as a budget guide and confirm with written quotes.
