INTERIOR WOODWORKING

Cabinets

Your cabinets may be the first thing guests notice when they enter your kitchen. We create custom cabinets that are sure to impress. We’ll work with you to understand the style you’d like to achieve in your kitchen, and we’ll custom build cabinets and shelves to perfectly fit your space. We can build cabinets from scratch, or retrofit cabinets for your existing countertops and support systems. We can also install specialized cabinetry, including drawers, pull-out cabinets, and lazy susans. Of course, we can paint or stain your cabinets and install them fully equipped with hardware.

Counters

Whether you need to build a wooden support for new granite countertops, or you’d like us to craft custom butcher’s block countertops, we can do it all. We’ll work with you to make your counterspace useful and beautiful. We can also create island counters, bar-height countertops — you name it.

Stairs and Railing

Creative stair and railing installations can work wonders to transform your home, creating an intriguing transition between floors. We’ll work with you and your space to create custom stairs and railings that fit your style and the specifications of your home. From curved staircases with landings and bannisters to simple, straightforward stairs, we do it all.

Pillars

We install both interior and exterior wood pillars, including structurally supportive pillars and decorative pillars. Talk to us about your vision for your home, and we can create and install pillar to suit your desires.

Custom Detailing

From baseboards to crown molding to wainscoting, we can install custom woodwork to improve the beauty and character of your home. We want every detail of your home to be beautiful, down to wooden vent covers or lightswitch covers. We can custom build, stain/paint, and install virtually any woodworking detail you can dream up.

EXTERIOR CARPENTRY

Decks, Stairs, and Railing

We replace, repair, and install new decks, stairs, and railing. We can coordinate how much space you’ll need for your new deck, what activities you’d like to enjoy on your deck (like grilling or dining), and other specifications that you have for your ideal deck. Of course, we can install stairs and elegant railing on your deck, and we can stain or paint any installation. Count on us for custom decks, stairs, and railings that will improve your property value and the enjoyment of your home and landscape. Feel free to learn more about our deck services.

A five star experience. He called me back right away. He was friendly and helpful. He showed up when he said he was going to. He diagnosed the problem with my dishwasher. He did all the plumbing and had the right tools in his truck. He charged me a fair price. I highly recommend him.
Ethon has always done a great job for us. For any work, big or small, he gets it done. Because of his experience, his company has helped us solve problems in the home in a very efficient and cost effective manner. We highly recommend Ethon and his company.

Ethon knows what he is doing. I had him hang my antique chandelier in my historic home in Lake Forest. He was very careful when moving my furniture & he didn’t scratch anything. He was quick and gracious. I recommend them whole hardily.
