When to call for custom wardrobes in El Congrés i els Indians

A highly requested improvement today is combining a motorised shutter with an integrated roller mosquito net in the same box. This allows both the shutter and the mosquito net to be operated independently, both hidden when not in use. It's the standard solution in modern new builds. For renovations of existing homes, it requires replacing the entire box with a new, deeper one to accommodate both systems. Motorisation requires a power supply to the upper box. If the box wall already has an electrical cable nearby (typically from the room's adjacent socket), installation is straightforward. If not, a cable needs to be run via an external conduit or an hidden channel. The complete motorisation process takes 2-3 hours per shutter when power is readily available. For all shutters in an entire house, we can complete it in 1-2 days. Chairs wobbling at the joints is the most common fault. The glued joints of the legs to the seat give way over time due to continuous use. Correct repair requires disassembling the chair, cleaning the joint surfaces by removing old dried glue, and re-gluing with appropriate wood glue. Clamp for 24 hours to cure. A properly repaired chair can last another 30-40 years without wobbling again.

Materials and brands

If the shutter slats are cracked, discoloured, and brittle (typical for shutters over 25-30 years old exposed to sun), point-by-point repairs cease to be economically sensible. Replacing the entire shutter with a modern model costs two to three times more than just changing the tape. In return, you get another 25-30 years without problems. Modern slats are injected and filled with polyurethane, offering much better insulation than the old hollow ones, thus improving thermal insulation. You can also request factory-integrated motorisation. The most common question clients ask us with a damaged piece of furniture is whether it's worth repairing or better to buy new. The answer depends on three factors: sentimental value of the furniture, original manufacturing quality, and the repair cost versus a new equivalent. For IKEA, Conforama, and similar budget-range furniture, where the price of a new table or chair is reasonable, repair rarely makes sense except for very simple, specific cases. For mid-to-high-end furniture, inherited pieces, or items with sentimental value, repair almost always makes sense. Replacing them with solid wood equivalents is significantly more expensive, and the original furniture possesses a manufacturing quality no longer found in new production. For pieces of great historical or artistic value, we refer clients to an external specialised restorer with whom we collaborate. Museum-quality restorations require specific training that goes beyond general carpentry.

Guide price

The price for custom wardrobes in El Congrés i els Indians typically ranges between €86 and €1520. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. Broken or loose handles and knobs are quick fixes. Replacing them with new handles of the same style or an updated one can visually transform furniture at a reasonable cost. The second factor to consider is the technical complexity of the repair. We can easily and effectively repair furniture with opened glued joints, failed screws, or broken hardware. Furniture with a wooden structure damaged by humidity or with large areas of veneer peeling requires complex intervention that can approach the cost of an equivalent new piece. In such cases, we will inform you so you can make an informed decision.
