  • Great service

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

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.

    Working with Lee was a great experience! We were originally going to go with walnut, but after discussing and seeing some of Lee's work with Flame Birch, we switched to it. Lee was in contact regularly, involved us every step of the way, and the result was spectacular! We now have a beautiful one-of-a-kind flame bitch mantel.

    I had a wonderful experience working with Lee on this project, he build me a custom made maple mantel that's wraps around my fireplace. He wrapped it really nicely and it came in a nice crate, he communicated with me and sent me pictures during the process and he delivered what he said he would.

    I'm very happy with this service and would definitely use Lee again!

    Working with Leland to create the mantle for my new house using the oak from my land was a wonderful process. He updated me at every turn and the result is incredibly beautiful. I provided the dimensions and the mantle fit perfectly. It’s the focal point of my home. He’s an artisan.

    Lee did an awesome job on my custom made walnut mantel project which was over 100 inches long. The craftsmanship of this mantel really amplified the beauty of my new fireplace and great room. I was also very pleased with the communication throughout the process. Lee ensured my expectations were met/exceeded along the way.

    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.
