Storage and Woodwork Made for Your Room

Built-ins use space that furniture cannot: the alcoves beside a fireplace, the wall under a staircase, a knee wall in an attic room. Because they are made for the room, they look like part of the house rather than something added to it.

We design and build custom shelving, cabinetry and woodwork around how you plan to use the space, and trim it to the walls, floor and ceiling so there are no awkward gaps.

Custom Built-Ins and Woodwork: What to Expect

What is included

Built-in bookcases and shelving
Entertainment walls and fireplace surrounds
Mudroom benches, cubbies and lockers
Window seats and reading nooks
Custom closets and pantry shelving
Home office desks and storage

How we do it

We measure the space and agree on a layout, shelf spacing and style with you before building. Cabinet boxes and shelves are built and then scribed to the walls and floor, which are almost never straight. Face frames, crown and base are added so the piece ties into the room's existing trim, and the whole unit is prepared for paint or stain.

What affects the cost

Every estimate is based on your project. The main factors are:

The size of the unit and the number of sections
Open shelving versus doors and drawers
Material: paint-grade or stain-grade wood
Details such as lighting, wiring openings and crown
Site conditions that need extra scribing or framing

Send us the details through the estimate form and we will reply by email with a free estimate.

Custom Built-Ins and Woodwork Questions, Answered

How long does a custom built-in take?

It depends on the size and detail. A simple set of shelves can be built and installed in a few days. A full entertainment wall or mudroom takes longer, and we give a timeline with the estimate.

Are built-ins made on site or in a shop?

Either, depending on the project. Cabinet boxes are often built ahead and then fitted and trimmed on site, where the scribing to your walls and floors happens.

Can a built-in hide wiring for a TV or lighting?

Yes. We plan openings and chases for cables, outlets and lighting into the design. Electrical work itself is done by a licensed electrician.

Paint-grade or stain-grade: what is the difference?

Paint-grade built-ins use materials such as MDF and poplar that give a smooth painted finish at a lower cost. Stain-grade work uses hardwood and veneer selected for grain and color, and costs more.
