I am a one-man shop trying to put together beautiful and useful works of art with wood so that someone might enjoy them in their home.
"STL Woodworking did a stellar job with my special order for a one-of-a-kind river wood table. I described what I had in mind in terms of wood, colors, and size, and the owner (Greg) crafted the most beautiful table made out of a beautiful piece of macacauba wood and paired with a gorgeous epoxy color and a perfect set of black metal table legs. Greg completed the project on schedule and delivered the piece himself. The table is stunning, so I rearranged my furniture to make it a centerpiece in my sitting area, and I use it daily as my desk working from home. It is truly a piece of functional art. I am so glad I went with STL Woodworking for this project."

I have been in the construction industry for over 25 years. As a homeowner needing to get things done that I do not have time to do, I tried to hire people to do the work for me. If I contacted companies, they did not answer the phone and if you left a message they did not call back. If they did call back or they would schedule appointments and never show up or if they did show up you would never hear from them again. If I was lucky to find one that provided an estimate, they did not know how to do the projects requested. Larger companies do not want to do the "little" things. At the point of getting so frustrated, I decided to start this business so that other homeowners would not have to go through this. I have hired professional and qualified people; drug test and background checks have been performed on them to ensure clients safety. The technician comes out, accesses the work and pricing is given on site. If pricing is accepted, the technician will perform the work immediately. You do not pay for the work until the job has been completed to your satisfaction.

Local cabinet installers who specialize in home remodel finishing work install cabinets. You can hire a general handyperson to install most cabinets, but it’s recommended to hire a cabinet specialist when installing custom cabinets. If you order your cabinets through a big-box retailer, they often supply the labor as part of the project cost.
Start with the wall cabinets. Hanging uppers first keeps heavy tools and screws away from your new base cabinets and lets you work closer to the studs for a straighter fit. Once the uppers are level and secure, setting the bases is easier, and you won’t risk scratching fresh finishes. This simple order delivers a cleaner look and a sturdier kitchen overall.
Island and breakfast‑bar base cabinets bolt to the floor—right through the underlayment and subfloor—so they don’t budge when you lean or prep. The cabinet installer uses basic wood screws to secure these cabinets to the floor. However, cabinets that run along a wall don’t need to be fastened. Instead, the contractor secures them to studs in the wall.
Yes, as long as the cabinet boxes are sound, swapping only the doors is fair game. Replacing only the doors and drawer fronts—known as cabinet refacing—offers a cost‐effective way to update your kitchen’s appearance while retaining the existing cabinet boxes. This method delivers a fresh and modern look without the expense of a complete cabinet replacement.
With routine care, custom solid-wood cabinets can retain their appearance for 20 to 50 years. Their superior durability and quality guarantee long‑term performance and an enduring aesthetic. By investing in high‑quality wood and ensuring routine upkeep, you secure cabinets that continue to enhance your kitchen’s appeal for decades. Ask your cabinet installer for maintenance tips to help extend the lifespan of your cabinets.
Whether you install flooring or cabinets first depends on the flooring material. For tile or hardwood, lay the floor first so the cabinets sit level and the finish stays seamless. In contrast, floating floors, such as laminate, should not be installed under cabinets due to expansion and contraction issues. Adhering to this sequence guarantees a durable and polished result.
