Moratuwa is the centre of Sri Lanka's furniture and carpentry trade, with timber yards and workshops concentrated along the Galle Road corridor. If you want made-to-measure joinery or restoration work, this is where the depth of skill sits.

What to expect

  • Professionals from Moratuwa, where much of the island's timber and furniture trade is based
  • Measurements taken on site rather than from a drawing
  • The material named in writing: aluminium, melamine, plywood or solid timber
  • Hardware specified, since hinges and channels decide how long it lasts

Helpful tips

Being at the source is only an advantage if you buy on specification. Ask for the timber species, the moisture content and whether the wood has been kiln-dried or air-dried. Under-dried timber built into joinery will move and split after fitting, whatever the workshop's reputation.

Often, because you are closer to both the timber and the workshops and there is real competition. Compare on specification rather than price alone: species, drying, board grade and hardware are what separate two quotes.

Yes, and Moratuwa is the right place for it. Repairing and regluing a dining set or a cabinet typically costs Rs 3,000 to Rs 15,000 per item, far below replacement for anything made of solid timber.
