Services
Custom Cabinetry
Our custom cabinetry service creates tailored storage solutions for kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces. Each unit is crafted from premium plywood using pocket screw construction for durability. Drawer boxes feature dovetail joints and soft-close slides, with customizable door styles including glass panels and wire mesh options. All cabinets receive protective finishes suitable for their specific environment.
Decorative Trim
We specialize in architectural wood trim including crown molding, wainscoting, chair rails, and board-and-batten designs. Our craftsmen create detailed shadow boxes and decorative columns that enhance room aesthetics while increasing property value. All trim components are custom-fitted to maintain precise alignment and seamless installation.
Murphy Doors
Our murphy door systems integrate seamlessly with cabinetry for concealed access to pantries, safe rooms, and play areas. The construction combines structural integrity with discreet operation mechanisms. We handle both design and installation phases to ensure perfect functionality and visual continuity with surrounding woodwork.
Hand Rail Systems
Custom handrail installations enhance staircase safety while complementing interior decor. We offer multiple hardwood options that can be stained to match flooring or cabinetry. Our consultation process includes material samples and spindle selection to coordinate with existing architectural elements throughout the home.
Home Office Built-Ins
We design integrated home office solutions featuring custom shelving, file storage, and wire management systems. Workspaces incorporate functional elements like drop zones and charging stations while maintaining aesthetic appeal through coordinated staining and finishing options that match existing woodwork.
