If it is made of wood, we make it.

Our core work is custom kitchens, cabinets and home furniture, each designed around your space and the way you live. Alongside them, we take on anything made of wood for homeowners, businesses and large developments.

Phos Restaurant

Every piece of woodwork at Phos was made from scratch in iroko, including the windows, which are routed and planed on one side with a slight slope so that rainwater runs off instead of sitting on the timber.

Inside the refrigerated room we built a wine cellar with a construction method that stops the wood shrinking or warping as humidity and temperature change. Wood keeps moving for years, so the cellar was designed to stay stable and hold its shape.

Tsangarides Winery

We built all of the winery's woodwork from scratch in genuine solid wood, including two wine cellars: one holding 3,000 bottles and a second holding 2,000.

Both cellars are solid wood through and through, and so are the windows, so the same material and the same standard of construction run through the whole building.

MP Kosmima

For MP Kosmima, a jewellery store and goldsmith's workshop in Coral Bay, we designed and built the whole interior in walnut: the counters, the display cases and the shelving.

Each piece was made to fit the space, and together they set the stage for the jewellery. Walnut throughout gives the room one consistent look, from the counter to the last shelf. See it on Instagram ↗

A front door that stays straight.

Our exterior doors are made from scratch in our own workshop, in iroko. The right timber, the right glues and the right joints for a door that faces sun, rain and sea air every day.

That is why we guarantee them against moisture problems for thirty years: no swelling, no sticking, no joints opening up.

The right wood for the job.

Two of the timbers we know best: iroko for anything that has to face the weather, walnut where the wood itself is the finish.

A West African hardwood, naturally oily and highly resistant to rot and insects. The timber we trust outdoors: doors, windows and anything near water.

Wood moves. We build for it.

Timber keeps taking in and giving off moisture long after the tree is felled. Good joinery allows for that movement instead of fighting it, so our work stays true in a Cyprus summer and in a refrigerated cellar alike.

Finished with care

Traditional know-how, modern design and a carefully finished result.

We started in 1990 as a small workshop, driven by a love for the craft and respect for the material.

Today NR Nikolaou Woodworking is a team of 25 people based in Kissonerga, with more than 100,000 completed projects behind us.

Every piece passes through the hands of experienced craftsmen who combine traditional know-how with modern design and a carefully finished result.

Our reliability has led to work with major clients such as Korantina Homes, one of the largest developers in Paphos. Big project or small, it gets the same attention to detail.

Questions, answered.

The things people ask us most before they start a project.

Where is your workshop?

Our workshop is at Dorou Loizou 4, Kissonerga, Paphos, Cyprus. We have been making woodwork there since 1990 and work on homes, businesses and developments across the Paphos district.

What do you make?

Our core work is custom kitchens, cabinets and home furniture. We also make front and interior doors, staircases, pergolas, windows, countertops, wine cellars and complete shop interiors. If it is made of wood, we make it.

Which wood do you use?

We choose the timber for where it will live. Iroko, a naturally oily West African hardwood that resists rot and insects, for doors, windows, pergolas and anything outdoors. Walnut for interiors where the wood itself is the finish.

Do your doors come with a guarantee?

Yes. Our exterior iroko doors are guaranteed for 30 years against moisture problems: no swelling, no sticking and no joints opening up.

Do you work for businesses and developers?

Yes. Recent work includes all the woodwork at Phos Restaurant in Agios Georgios for Korantina Homes, two solid wood wine cellars at Tsangarides Winery and the walnut interior of MP Kosmima in Coral Bay.
