Introduction

We specialize in custom built in or stand alone furniture, as well as, refinishing, repair and restoration of furniture and other antiques/items. We love taking an idea and running with it to make it just what our customers love and fall in love with all over again.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

Typically for a handyman or remodel job we have a set price of $20.00 per man hour plus materials. For furniture pieces it comes on a piece by piece basis.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

We like to meet with our customers and discuss what they are looking for for their project. Throw some ideas back and forth sometimes even do a drawing of what your looking for before we start work.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

We have been in business since 2005. We have learned a great deal along with way and have hired people within our company who have many years of experience in multiple fields

How did you get started doing this type of work?

Doug's step father actually got him started on doing the handyman and remodeling aspect of this business and both of us have always had a crafty side to us.

What types of customers have you worked with?

All types from the city to the country.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

Just recently we took a camp up in Caroga lake, NY and replaced the exterior of the house with log siding. It gave it new life and created a buzz around the neighborhood. It only took us about a week to complete.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Be open to creativity! We love doing this!

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

They need a rough idea of what they are looking to do and maybe a few ideas of the some material they would like to be used.
