Custom Furniture in Arp, TX

Tables, benches, beds and shelving built to measure for Arp — including the barn, porch and workshop pieces nobody sells in a shop.

Country needs, not catalog needs

Arp is a small town in farming country in the corner of Smith County, and what gets asked for here is different from what gets asked for in a subdivision. Long tables for families that still eat together. Bench seating rather than chairs. Porch furniture that will live outdoors. Shelving for a barn or a workshop that will hold weight rather than bow after a season.

Very little of that is sold ready-made at a sensible quality, which is why it gets built.

Built to be repaired later

Anything we build is put together so it can be taken apart and fixed rather than thrown away. That is the difference between a piece that lasts a decade and one that lasts a lifetime, and in a household where things are expected to keep working it is the whole point.

What gets built

Dining and farmhouse tables. Benches. Bed frames. Blanket chests. Bookcases and shelving. Coffee tables. Children's step stools. Plant stands. Kitchen islands. Feed and tack storage. Church and hall furniture, which comes up regularly out here.

There is a crew here, not one pair of hands

Grace Woodwork is several people, so a set of pieces does not take proportionally longer than one, and a job with a date on it does not sit waiting.

How a build starts

With a measurement and an idea. A photograph of the space helps. Then timber, finish, price and timing, and nothing is cut until you have a real number. We deliver and install to Arp, about forty minutes from the shop.
