One of the most common questions people ask when considering a custom table is: How much does a custom dining table cost?
The answer depends on several factors including the size of the table, the type of wood used, the design of the base, and the level of customization involved.
At MorningWood Company, we build handcrafted custom dining tables in our Jacksonville workshop using premium hardwoods and traditional woodworking techniques. Because every table is built to order, pricing can vary depending on the specific project.
However, the information below will give you a general idea of what to expect when investing in a custom table.
Average Cost of a Custom Dining Table
Most custom dining tables fall within the following price ranges:
| Table Size | Typical Price |
|---|---|
| Small Dining Tables (4–6 people) 4ft–6ft | $3,000 – $4,500 |
| Medium Dining Tables (6–8 people) 6ft–8ft | $4,500 – $6,000 |
| Large Dining Tables (8–12 people) 8ft–10ft | $6,000 – $8,500 |
| X-Large Dining Tables (12–14+ people) 12ft+ | $10,000+ |
Factors That Affect the Cost of a Custom Table
There are four key factors that can influence the final cost of a custom dining table.
Table Size
Larger tables require significantly more material and labor. A 10–12 foot dining table will typically cost more than a 6–8 foot table due to the additional hardwood and construction time involved.
Wood Species
Different hardwoods vary in price depending on availability and character.
Popular options include:
- Walnut
- White oak
- Maple
- Hickory
- Reclaimed wood
Walnut and specialty slabs often cost more because of their distinctive grain patterns and limited supply.
Table Style
Certain styles require more time and materials to build.
For example:
- Farmhouse dining tables often include thick tops, breadboard ends and large bases.
- Live edge tables require premium slabs and careful finishing to preserve the natural edge.
- Epoxy river tables require additional materials and specialized finishing techniques.
Base Design
The style of the table base also affects cost.
Options may include:
- farmhouse trestle bases
- steel bases
- pedestal bases
- custom hardwood bases
More complex designs typically require additional labor and fabrication.
MorningWood Company builds a variety of tables including custom dining tables, farmhouse tables, live edge slab tables and custom conference tables.
Most custom dining tables we build range between $4,500 and $8,000 depending on size and wood selection.
