Oakleigh Custom Woodworks LLC

The results are beautiful, and exactly as we'd hoped. The detailed work is apparent and worth the price. The glass was sub-contracted and paid separately, but I included that in the noted overall price because it is part of the piece. Also, installation was separate, done by our own contractor, so is not included in the overall price, nor in this rating. The only negative, and it was minor, was the time involved. We knew up front that the Reads were going to be out of the country for two weeks during the building time, but even so it took longer than they'd anticipated. However, the care taken and attention to detail was worth the wait. They consulted with us on the stain colors, showing us examples of applied stain on the type wood to be used. It needs to be pointed out that this is not plywood, but furniture quality maple and oak. Absolutely gorgeous work!

They did all the construction but I did the installation. All parts fit together well and it matched my kitchen cabinets well.

I recognized that I needed the cabinet. Contacted them, described what I wanted to be able to hide the TV. ( worked well)

They were prompt, communicated well and were even very helpful in helping me secure all the appliances.

My house was built in the 1800's so that the shutters had to be special design and size for my windows. They handled the entire job including installation.

This huge project was made so much easier on me due to their cooperation and attention. They were eager to problem solve and I could count on them to over see the entire installation.

I live in a house that is more than one hundred years old and does not have linen closets. I decided to order two custom-made cedar hope chests that could be used as storage for linens and wool clothing (I used to live in the north east); and then at a later date these chests could be given as gifts to my great nieces.
The owners of Oakleigh Custom Woodworks, LLC, were the consumate professionals. We talked about what it was that I needed and would like. I then toured their facilities and was shown many samples of their work including other hope chests.
We settled on a design. They then talked with me about choices for a wood stain and gave me several samples to take home and put next to the furniture so that I could wisely select what stains to use.
The owners provided me with updates on the project and we agreed on a mutually convenient delivery time.
I could not have been more pleased than I was with the finished products. The chests were exactly what I had hoped for and these did not disappoint.
This company was very timely, very communicative, had excellent workmanship, and gave great attention to detail. The hope chests they designed and produced were superior to anything I could have purchased pre-made in a store.
I highly recommend their work.

I searched far and wide for a shop that could handle my unique application. I had nearly given up until I found Oakleigh Custom Woodworks - and oh my, how the search was worth it. Oakleigh has done a fantastic job for me in a unique custom application. Starting from a simple concept they were able to develop a remarkable end-product. The worked closely with me from concept, through design, prototype and full scale production providing a friendly and engaging atmosphere whlie maintaining a professional approach. During each step they displayed great acuity for detail. The quality of their work is outstanding. Their creativity and imagination perfectly complement their practical and technical proficiencies. They, by far, exceeded my expectations.

I hired them March 2012 to hired them March 2012 and still don't have kitchen after paying $15,500. The contract stated they would be completed in 6-8 weeks. They do a lot of blaming, have many excuses, and put stuff back on me. Cabinets don't fit; mistake with stove placement. These aren't custom cabinets; they don't install or put on cabinet doors. I was quoted an additional $2000 from their and quot;installerand quot; which included putting put on face frames, cabinet doors, and correcting mistakes. I've had to find another cabinet maker to complete job. They demand 1/2 money upfront for materials which was $7500. (I don't think my cabinet materials could have cost more than $1500 for materials). They demand increments depending on job completion and nothing was completed when they collected payment. The kitchen isn't what I asked for, or the plans in the contract.
