Carpenter, Furniture Repair in Iowa City

When looking for a way to add visual appeal to your home that also has a functional purpose, custom carpentry is a great way to do that!  Boot benches, custom trim and molding, shelving, cabinetry, bookcases, and other built-ins add interest to your interior, provide additional storage, and increase property value.  Because how commonly built-ins are seen on home improvement shows, they’ve become common elements in homes all over the country.
​
When considering adding custom woodworking to your home, there are a couple of things to keep in mind, namely needs and budget.  With smaller budget, it’s best to stick to incorporating pieces that will increase property value and serve as more than just decoration (such as a bookshelf in a den or storage in a room that doesn’t have any).   With a larger budget in hand, there are ways to incorporate custom carpentry pieces in to almost every room of your home.
It's also important to consider future changes to your home that may affect anything you’re looking to install today.  After all, custom woodworking is permanent in most cases, and moving or altering things after installation will likely cause damage (if it can even be moved at all).  As such, it’s best to install pieces in their forever location.   Additionally, changes to furniture or fixtures need to be considered, too.  For example, while the built-ins surrounding your TV look great today, what happens when you want to get a bigger TV?  It’s important to consider all angles.

Expert Tips

Mantles: A mantle is the perfect way to add visual interest around a fireplace while also providing a place to put pictures, plants, and other meaningful decorations.

Cabinets: Custom cabinets, unlike spec cabinets, are not limited by size, colors, or add-ons.  By going custom, you can pick the exact size and finish for the any cabinets you need in your basement, kitchen, bathroom, den, garage, or other space.
Storage: There are various pieces that can provide additional storage options in your home while also adding a beautiful touch, including shelves, boot benches, cubbies, and more.  The difference between a piece you can buy at the store and custom woodworking is that going custom provides limitless customization options, allowing you to design a piece that perfectly fits your space and style.

Trim/Molding: Functionally, trim generally provides a transition between two adjoining surfaces, such as the floor and wall.  Aesthetically, trim and molding and can bring a lot of visual appeal to a room through floor trim, crown molding, wainscoting, chair rail, and more.
