For Custom Sized Door5.0Steve made exactly the doors I was expecting and completed the project in the timeframe he quoted. He delivered the doors himself and did so on the first of several possible delivery dates I provided. Throughout the process he communicated in a very timely fashion through the website and provided pictures of the finished product before arranging delivery. This was my first custom project through custommade.com and I must admit I was hesitant. When it comes to additions to my home I very much like to approve materials in advance but this project went so smoothly, and the product is so excellent that I'll definitely try it again. (But I'll still be nervous ;-) I will definitely tap Steve again for any future carpentry projects,
