Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I specialize in custom furniture from salvaged trees, unique and heirloom quality end grain surfaces, butcher blocks, tables, and islands all sizes.
We work with responsible local arborists and sawyers to perform the modern art of urban wood salvage around the greater Asheville area, preserving large trees of a wide variety of species in beautiful slab form that would otherwise be ground up at the mulch yard and turning them into custom-designed furniture and–for lack of a more humble word–art.

For Hickory End Grain Chopping Board, Butcher Block, Island5.0I LOVE the cutting board made by Matt Christie!!! It is just as pictured, just as I expected. Matt was very friendly, patient and timely in communicating with me throughout the planning process. The quality of his workmanship is outstanding. I would definitely hire him again to do wood projects for me. I HIGHLY recommend this fine craftsman.

For Mantel Shelf4.5the piece was created as requested. however, it arrived chipped. it may have occurred during shipping. I didn't want to ship back a 45lb mantel to Greenriverwoods so I accepted it as-is. However, had I purchased a similar piece from a major retailer I would have returned it. Upon communicating with Greenriverwoods, he sent me a repair kit, free of charge. It was delivered within a week of our email conversation. All in all, we love the addition to our fireplace. It's unique and fits our home decor perfectly. The shipping experience will make me think twice before using Custom Made again however.

For Ambrosia Maple End Grain Chopping Board, Butcher Block, Island5.0I worked with Matt Christie on my project. Matt listened carefully to what I had in mind and offered very useful professional advice. Matt’s expert craftsmanship and attention to detail was evident in the excellent end product. Matt was very easy to communicate with and prompt with his email responses. I received my completed project ahead of schedule and am delighted with it. Definitely good value for money.

For Patchwork Mixed Wood End Grain Chopping Board, Butcher Block, Island5.0I wanted a custom butcher block to inset over the griddle area of our new gourmet stove/cooktop (we aren't going to use that area at all). I gave Matt very precise measurements so the block would EXACTLY fit into the inset griddle space and at the right height…and it did perfectly. Nice and tight so crumbs and bits won't fall inside the stove. Matt communicated well from the start and turned around the project quickly in time for Thanksgiving. He even supplied some of his custom oil for sealing the butcher block. It looks great and is perfect for our new kitchen. Good job1
