Custom Woodgrains
Started my business in 2007, after someone who knows I enjoy woodworking, asked me to build fireplace mantels for them. I have had interest in woodworking long before this, and has been great to be creating wood products for people who enjoy the rich, warm, look of wood.
Design & building of wood fireplace mantels, surrounds, as well as other woodworking.
Looking for that unique design? Consider working with me!
I try to give the best effort in making a product that you will enjoy for many years!
My motto is "build it like it is going to be yours", a statement that my high school carpentry teacher told us.
I had a wonderful experience while creating our custom piece for our fireplace. The correspondence was always fast and we got updates on progress periodically. Lee knew exactly what we wanted. The drawings he sent shows exactly how it is built. The mantel is beautiful and is definitely an art piece in our home.
Leland was a true professional. His communication skills were excellent and he kept us up to date with his progress and with pictures. Prices for a custom built mantel not much more that the standard fireplace store stock mantel. If you want a custom mantel that you can be proud of, he is the man to go to. You will not be disappointed.
Working with Lee was a pleasure. We communicated frequently during the construction of my mantle. He offered ideas on different woods, asked questions to understand my project, sent very detailed construction drawings, communicated directly with my contractor that was building the new fireplace to make revisions, sent many photos of the progress and completed the project much faster than I expected. In every way he was professional, courteous and highly communicative. It was a pleasure working with someone with such expertise. I didn't pay that much more than one of the mantles online that are shipped from China. Lee built a unique, very special mantle for our new house. Many thanks for the great job!
I am very happy with the completed project. Working with Leland Franke was a pleasure. I could not have asked for better communication regarding plans, changes and being kept updated on the progress. I would not hesitate to use Leland for help in future projects. My sincerest tanks. Ron Zagaja Ipswich, MA
We couldn't be happier with our mantel. Lee was great to work with. He kept us informed through out the process. I was a bit worried about doing a project like this long distance but he knows how to make it work. Communication was great. He was happy to answer questions and make adjustments to the plan. He always responded quickly. He sent us samples of the stained wood. Definitely recommend Lee.
