I take on a limited number of projects each year to ensure each piece receives the time and attention it deserves.
Discovery & Design
Every project begins with a conversation — in person or by video. We discuss your space, how the piece will be used, proportions, material preferences, and budget range.
Following this discussion, I prepare a detailed design proposal outlining dimensions, timber selection, construction approach, timeline, and a fixed quote.
A design fee of $300.00 is required to begin this phase. The fee is credited toward the final balance should you proceed with the build.
The Build
Once the design is approved and a 50% deposit is received, the materials are sourced and your piece enters my build schedule.
Each project is constructed with carefully selected materials using time-tested joinery. Surfaces are finished to highlight the natural character of the wood and to age gracefully over time.
Throughout the build, you will receive periodic photo updates from the workshop so you can see the work as it progresses.
Typical lead time is 8–16 weeks, depending on scope and my current schedule.
Delivery & Placement
For major pieces within 1.5 hours of Kitchener, Ontario, I personally oversee delivery and installation. Furniture built with care deserves to be placed with the same attention.
For clients outside the region, shipping arrangements can be coordinated as needed.
Investment
Most commissions begin in the mid four-figure range. Final pricing reflects scale, material selection, and complexity.
Begin the Conversation
If you feel aligned with this approach, I invite you to get in touch with a brief description of your project, location, and timeline.
Commissions
I review each inquiry personally and respond within 2–3 business days.
