Custom Woodworking Shop FAQs: What You Need to Know
If you’ve never worked with a custom woodworking shop like ours before, you have questions. Well, we have answers. And if you don’t see your question answered here, please reach out. We want you to know all of your options.
Q: What are the benefits of hiring a custom woodworking shop?
A: Of course, we’re biased, but we think there are many benefits to hiring a custom woodworking shop, including:
• You get exactly the custom cabinetry or custom bar or other feature you want, down to the last detail.
• You avoid the mass-produced, cheaply-made look of many items sold in stores.
• You work one-on-one with a skilled craftsman who can create beautiful, unique pieces for your home or business.
• You’re supporting a local business rather than a big corporation.
Q: How do I know if hiring a custom woodworking shop is right for me?
A: If you have very specific ideas for cabinets, custom wood table, or other item, and you want it to be made with high quality wood with attention to detail, then a custom woodworking shop is likely a good fit for you. Choosing the right woodshop will depend on where you’re located, the craftsman’s portfolio, and pricing.
Q: What products and services does your custom woodworking shop offer?
A: We design and build custom cabinetry, custom wood bars, custom wood tables, live edge tables, live edge countertops, custom wood doors, custom wood signs, and wood flags.
Q: How much does it cost to hire a custom woodworking shop?
A: There’s no simple answer to this question. In most cases, hiring a custom woodworking shop will cost you more than buying an item online or from a big box store. That’s because you are paying for the woodworker’s time and skills, as well as the high-quality wood slabs and lumber.
Q: How long will it take you to complete my project?
A: Again, the answer to this question will depend on what your project is. Our custom woodworking shop can get very busy during certain times of the year, meaning your project may take longer to get started. A complex project will also take longer. When you schedule a consultation for your project, we will be up front with you on how long your project will take to complete.
Q:Do you do any of the work in my home?
A: No, with the exceptions of the initial consultation and the delivery and installation. We do all of the design, cutting, carving, assembly, and finishing in our custom woodshop. We then deliver standalone pieces and leave. With larger projects such as kitchen cabinets or a wood bar, we do the installation, which can take a day or two, depending on the complexity of the project.
Q: What is your service area?
A:For larger projects, we work within a certain proximity to our custom woodshop in Berkeley Springs, WV. This includes the following areas:
• Morgan County, WV
• Frederick County, VA
• Berkeley County, WV
• Winchester, VA
• Jefferson County, WV
• Frederick County, MD

• Washington, DC
For smaller items like custom wood signs and custom wooden flags, we can ship those anywhere in the world.
Again, if you have any questions that you don’t see the answers to here, please reach out. We would be happy to talk with you directly to put your mind at ease.
