Custom Millwork & Cabinetry in Huntersville, NC

The Lake Norman corridor — Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, and Mooresville — is a regular run for our trucks. Our shop sits on the other side of Charlotte in Monroe, and we schedule lake work in staged deliveries so a forty-five minute drive never becomes your problem.

Shop: 6027 Stitt St D, Monroe, NC — about 45 minutes from our Monroe shop.

How we work in Huntersville

Waterfront and lakefront homes here ask for scale: two-story great rooms, beamed and coffered ceilings, paneled studies, and cabinetry that runs from the kitchen through the bar and the boat-gear mudroom. We draw the full package in CAD, assign Ellis-Reid part numbers, and grind knives for any profile that has to be proportioned up for a taller ceiling.

Lake homes also bring humidity swings that punish poorly acclimated material. Stock is acclimated in the shop before milling and again before finishing, and painted casework and painted trim are sprayed in the same booth so they still match after the first full season of heating and cooling.

How far we travel

We run daily within about 35 miles of Monroe — and we travel for the right project.

Our own trucks and install crews cover roughly a 35-mile radius around Monroe every day: Charlotte, Union County, the Waxhaw and Matthews corridors, Lake Wylie and Fort Mill, and the Lake Norman towns. Outside that radius we still take the work — mountain houses in Blowing Rock, coastal projects, a phase two three states from the first one, and builders whose portfolio spans both. Distance changes how we schedule deliveries and installs. It has never decided whether we take a project.

Tell us where the project is and we will tell you exactly how we would run it.
