Built-Ins and Furniture, Made for the Room They're In Bookcases, mudrooms, trim and one-off pieces — Savannah and the islands.
Made to Fit, Not to Fill
A built-in is not furniture you push against a wall. It is measured to the room it lives in, scribed to walls that are never quite square, and finished so the joint between the piece and the house disappears. That is the whole point of building it rather than buying it.
Most of what I build is storage that had nowhere to go: an awkward alcove, a stair landing, a laundry that needed a wall of cabinets rather than a rack. If you have a space that has annoyed you for years, that is usually the job.
What I Build
Three kinds of work, and they overlap more often than not. A mudroom is built-ins and trim together; a dining room is often a table and the millwork around it.
Morgan finished off a hall closet project for me by installing the molding. He did a nice job in just a day. – Dorothy F.
Morgan is not only a consummate professional, but a kind and genuine individual. So happy to have met and worked with him. If you make the same choice, you won’t regret it! – Chaad D.
Where the Work Shows
The parts nobody photographs are the parts that decide whether a built-in looks made for the house or bolted onto it. Reveals kept even. Grain matched across doors. Scribes cut to the wall rather than caulked to it.
None of it costs much extra at the time of building. All of it is impossible to add later, which is why I would rather do it once and do it properly.
Fitted Around Your House
Your house is lived in while I work in it. Floors get covered, cuts happen outside where they can, and the room is swept before I leave for the day. You will know which days I am there and which days I am not.
My Promise to You
You get a written price before I start, a date I intend to finish by, and the same person on site from the measure to the last piece of trim. If something is going to slip, you hear it from me before you notice it yourself.
