“Jim made an arbor for my wedding ceremony using reclaimed barn wood. It was absolutely stunning- I still receive compliments on it today. He was easy to work with, professional, and very timely in completing this project. I highly recommend him and his company!”

“Hired Sam for custom cabinet work, very professional work, everything went very smooth, very happy with the work, will use him again, recommend to others.”

“Charles Shiver of Chelsea Woodworking has completed a number of projects for us and worked on a number homes in our neighborhood. For us, his work he has spanned a broad range of projects: from minor repairs to finishing an entire lower level. The lower lever improvement project was approximately 900 square feet with: two bedrooms, shower bath, living room and kitchen. We have always found his work to be superb and his willingness to share ideas has resulted in a better finished product. He is happy to work with your concepts and provide ideas for other construction options that could save on time and money. Pride in his work is a standard element when he is handling projects and this sets him apart from other professionals. He takes the time to do it right. Should a complication develop he goes out of his way to help ensure everyone’s understanding of the problem and provides alternatives to solve the issue at hand, giving estimated costs associated with any changes, should they be needed, and gives you the likely consequences of the various options presented. Charles has worked on all types of residential homes. We feel his experience in dealing with with period homes is second to none. We own a 1880’s Queen Anne Victorian. I’m formerly a residential builder and developer of new homes for 25 years. His knowledge of period homes has enhanced and helped us preserve our unique house. With his advice and help we believe our home will last another 130 years with it being more energy efficient and stronger than the day it was built. When asked, Charles is always our first recommendation. Jim & Kim Myles Chelsea, Michigan”

“Karol and his staff are highly professional. They come on time and work diligently. They are extremely respectful of our property and treat it as their own. If any problems come up, they solve them without any issues. I'd highly recommend them!”

“We hired Mr. Stanton to convert two pair of French doors that were 'fixed' in place since 1917 into doors we could open and close. This required finding hinges to match the house and then embedding them into the framing and attaching them to the doors. The doors needed to be prepared to receive the hinges as well. Perfectly matched! The most difficult part of the project was the installation of eight slide bolts INSIDE the doors. I don't know how he did it, but it looks as though the bolts were in there since the house was first built. Perfect fit! Mr. Stanton also had to create a threshold for both sets of doors. Again, a perfect fit. The new doors open and close smoothly, easily, and quietly. We had a third pair of French doors (that used to be the front entry to the house) installed in the living room hallway. Mr. Stanton had to adjust the opening just a little bit on each side, using matching oak and stain. These doors also work effortlessly and add a beautiful new dimension to our home's interior. I would recommend Mr. Stanton for any project that calls for careful consideration of old construction. He is meticulous, honest, pays very close attention to minute details, and he is humorous! :)”
