thanks for a great job

My vision became reality with the excellent help from Michael. From old playground wood to a mirror and a bench. I am actually thinking up projects for this amazing, patient carpenter to work on in the future.

Michael is prompt, professional and very easy to work with. The cutting board he made for my girlfriend and I is a simple, elegant work of art that will last effectively forever. I'm glad that I went with him, and can assure buyers on custommade that they will not be disappointed in his work.

simple best!cooperative and professional!

I was very happy with the benches that were hand built and custom for my coffee shop. Will be ordering more in the future.

The cutting board is awesome. the workmanship is unparalleled. Michael's communication was amazing, and he even credited me a portion of the shipping when he saw there was an small error made when i was charged. looking forward to having MGA Custom Woodwork design and build me a desk! thank you Michael!

I reached out to MGA Custom Woodwork to create a Mid-Century Revival platform bed; I am nothing less than delighted with the final product. After some discussion, we went with a minimal design and a contrasty sappy walnut wood. Micheal has an excellent artisan's eye, and skillfully assembled the wood planks to maximize the designerly beauty of the grain. We initially went with a push drawer mechanism that ended up sticking a bit upon delivery. However, Michael exhibited a true commitment to his work but coming to the house a second day to replace the push drawer rails with more conventional ones; he also added customs knobs that worked well both in form and function. Michael is excellent with communication, timely and shows a deep knowledge of the craft. He is always ready to suggest alternative ways to improve the look/function of the furniture in a very personable and easy way. I plan to contract Michael again in the future to construct a gentleman's wardrobe cabinet. I do not hesitate to give him my highest recommendation for you CustomMade project.

The cutting board exceeded my expectations in craftsmanship. It is a beautiful addition to my kitchen. I would have liked to receive some care instructions with it. I will consider ordering again as this is truly a unique board.

Michael was very responsive, patient and worked in a timely matter to meet our tight schedule. He also shared a lot of info and taught us many pointers in working with and taking care of wood products. We love our butcherblock countertop and table Michel made for us. Highly recommended.

Michael Anderson built a pair of custom speaker cabinets for me based on a design I have from Europe. The results are stellar with a truly ‘hand-made’ quality in the best sense of the word. They are constructed with care, precision and a clear passion for detail and refinement. Michael matched the color I wanted precisely with only a photo reference and created a truly stunning gloss finish. There was one minor glitch based on a confusion in the plans - Michael not only picked up the cabinets from my home but he made the change quickly and hand-delivered them back to my front door. Throughout the process he was friendly, professional and extremely responsive with communication. He explained in depth the many options I had to choose from without ever overwhelming me with variables. I expect these speakers to last a lifetime. Seriously fantastic work at a fair rate. I highly recommend Michael and would hire him again without question.

I highly recommend MGA Custom Woodwork. Michael, the builder, is very detail oriented and he creates quality work. He didn't just take the build and run with it. He consulted with me every step of the way and when I asked his opinion or needed information about wood types, finishes, etc. he provided the info I needed to make my decisions. He also took the time to explain the processes involved in the building of my piece. I will not hesitate to contact Michael for any other projects I may have in the future.

The cutting board (wave pattern with relatively small cube size) Michael made for me is used daily since receiving it 6 months ago. Not only it looks great, it is pleasure to use. With little care wood butter here and then + wiping after each use) it looks as new (actually it looks even better). Michael was very helpful and open to try new things and pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to order again. Thanks Michael.
