>
> Their work is absolutely beautiful, and you can tell how much care and pride they put into every detail. They really listened to us, understood what we wanted, and went above and beyond to make sure everything turned out exactly how we envisioned it.
>
> What we appreciated most was how much they truly cared—not just about the finished product, but about us and our home throughout the entire process. That personal touch made such a difference and made working with them such a wonderful experience.
>
> We honestly couldn’t be happier. They are the kind of people you’re genuinely sad to see leave when the project is finished! We feel so blessed to have worked with them and will absolutely use them for every project we have in the future. They are truly the best!

**★★★★ — HU-710036127, Sept. 2026**

> We are very happy with our master bathroom remodel, it turned out to be one of my favorite rooms in the house. Cesar and his crew would always keep us informed daily on the construction schedule, and were meticulous and attentive to details.

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

**★★★★★ — Pamela Auburn, March 2024**

> Initially I hired Wood Customs for a kitchen remodel in a 1930s bungalow. When we found wiring issues the project expanded to encompass the entire residence. I was very glad to have Cesar to guide me through this process. His design sense is excellent and I did not need to engage an independent designer. He created a plan to create a modern kitchen with an island and great storage and even put a cabinet for a washer dryer under the stairs. In the living room he redesigned the old fireplace, and in a partially opened attic space made room for a bedroom with a full master bath.
> From cabinetry to electrical wiring, his team does fabulous work  and he can refer you to top notch suppliers. I could not be happier.

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

> Pamela, thank you for your kind review. It's been a pleasure working with you!

**★★★★★ — West U Homeowner, March 2024**

> Did a great job renovating our house.  The timing was tight, but they hit the deadline.  Craftsmanship level was extremely high!

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

> Thank you for the business and opportunity of working with you!  I really appreciate the referrals and your continued permission to showcase your beautiful home to other clients.

**★★★★★ — dishathadani, March 2024**

> Ceasar & his team are Prompt, efficient and I have always been thrilled with the finished product.
> I needed a quick tweak to my custom closet ( designed and installed by Wood Customs) to accommodate more space for my clothes. From understanding exactly what I needed and getting the project done the process was quick and smooth. Before I knew it my job was done and I am one happy camper.
> Highly recommend Wood Customs!!

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

> Thank you Disha for all of your business and referrals!

**★★★★★ — Kara Sessums, March 2024**

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

> Thank you Kara, looking forward to working with you again.

**★★★★★ — Sandy Shurin, March 2024**

> Cesar and team set the standard for quality and professionalism.  We have used Cesar extensively, including full gut renovation of multiple rooms and multiple custom built pieces throughout our home.  Cesar’s team has deep enough experience to not just execute on what we ask for, but to serve as advisors based on prior projects and the overall aesthetic of our property.  The project management is exceptional, highly responsive and proactive in communications.  Simply stated, Cesar is someone we trust, and we view working with Cesar, Ramon, and the rest of the Wood Customs team as an investment in quality.

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

> Sandy, It's been a pleasure working with you and yours.
> Thank you for all the business and referrals!

**★★★★★ — Ashley S, March 2024**

> Cesar and his crew gave us the kitchen of our dreams!  Wood Customs is first-class, super professional, and extremely reliable.  My family is still in awe and is very proud to show off our home!

**Comment from Wood Customs:**

**★★★★★ — HU-530788928, Aug. 2019**

> We contracted Cesar and his company to remodel our fireplace. Cesar understood our vision and submitted a beautiful design. Although we encountered a problem during the realization of the project, Cesar was able to solve it in a creative way and in a timely manner. His crew was punctual, courteous, skilled, and worked really hard to deliver the best product. We highly recommend Cesar and his team.

**★★★★★ — Michael McKinnon, July 2019**

> We’ve now used Wood Customs for a variety of home improvement projects to our home in the Heights.  From small projects like interior and exterior painting,  window and door replacements to larger projects where we replaced our failing chimney. Up to our largest project where we enclosed our back porch to create a sunroom and installed a Trex deck complete wt Trex lighting.
>
> For each project they have performed great quality craftsmanship, shown attention to detail, offered great design ideas and been extremely professional.
>
> I’d happily recommend them for your next project.

**★★★★★ — steffibell, March 2019**

> Highly recommended. We just completed a full kitchen renovation - new countertops, backsplash, sink, faucet, reworked certain areas of existing cabinetry while preserving the majority, repainted everything (including lots of woodwork and trim) and added a built-in “integrated” refrigerator. Cesar and his team did a wonderful job.  Their eye for detail puts them head and shoulders above other contractors we had previously worked with. As an example, Cesar’s team touched up our old cabinets so well that when the installers for the new refrigerator came they thought everything was brand new, cabinets included. We are very happy we chose to work with Wood Customs.

## Community Q&A

**Q: love this! how deep is the cupboard?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: The base cabinets are 20&quot; deep and uppers are 13&quot; deep.

**Q: Stumped! Three way / Peninsula fireplace tile and mantle** *(in Design Dilemma)*

We're blessed to have found such a beautiful home, but the mantel and fireplace weren't doing it for us. The previous mantel (pictured) was a safety hazard (eye level) and simply took up too much space so we took it down. We are trying to figure out how to carry the theme of our recently remodeled kitchen over to the living room, without coming off so matchy match. Our taste seems to land on transitional and we avoid a modern/contemporary look as best we can. We try to maintain a timeless feel.

We've thought about tiling the fireplace all the way up or just to the mantel. We plan to paint and/or redo the cabinetry to the left of the fireplace. While we'd like to knock back that column in the middle, it's just not worth messing with the gas line just a few inches behind it. We may add a faux cabinet on top of that column if we redo the built-in to give it some symmetry.

The wife insists on having a mantel (to hang Christmas stockings) so the plan needs to involve a mantel. We're not sure if we should wrap it all the way around or just the front (or two sides). Just the front would help cut costs, but we're not willing to cut costs if it is just something we'll want to pull down again.

The house has poor lighting from the exterior windows (lots of trees in our neighborhood) so adding brick veneer tile may darken the room too much. We thought about matching the exterior brick of our house (pictured). Maybe if we whitewash it enough we could get away with it.

Any ideas on how to approach this project or suggestions for tiles or mantels to look at would be so appreciated. We've been mulling this over for so long, but never seem to come up with an idea that is worth pursuing. There are not too many similar configurations we can find online to help inspire us. We think getting the mantel figured out is our first step, but open to your suggestions. I'm going to include a few pictures of the rooms I mentioned above. I tried to clean up in the pictures, but excuse the mess. The play area will eventually become a breakfast area when the kiddos get a little older.

Thanks again for any ideas you can help spark!
