Built to measure, twenty minutes away

New London is a short run from the shop, which means we can come and measure the room rather than working from numbers over the phone. That takes twenty minutes and removes most of the ways a made-to-order piece can disappoint — the doorway it has to come through, the thing it has to sit beside, the wall that is not quite the length you thought.

Plain and solid

Most of what gets asked for around here is straightforward and meant to last: a table long enough for the whole family, bench seating that takes more people than chairs do, shelving that holds what is put on it. Simple joinery done well outlasts complicated joinery done quickly, and it is easier to repair in twenty years.

Everything we build is put together so it can be taken apart and fixed rather than thrown away.

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, tack and workshop storage. Church and hall furniture — communion tables, lecterns, pew repairs and fellowship hall tables that seat properly and store flat.

There is a crew here, not one pair of hands

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

How a build starts

Tell us roughly what you want and we will come and measure. Then timber, finish, price and timing, and nothing is cut until you have a real number. Delivery and installation is a twenty-minute run.

Questions we get from New London

Will you come and measure?

Yes, and at twenty minutes it is easy. Most disappointments with made-to-order furniture start with a measurement taken over the phone.

Can you build to a budget?

Usually. Tell us the number at the start — there is more than one way to build most things.

Do you do church and hall furniture?

Yes. Communion tables, lecterns, pew repairs and hall tables, quoted plainly.

What timber do you use?

Pine, oak and cedar most often, and reclaimed timber when a piece calls for it.

A phone picture is plenty. We will tell you what it needs, what it will cost and roughly how long it will take — before you commit to anything.
