Tony O'Malley Custom Woodworking

Tony brings his meticulous approach and refined craftsmanship to each project he has completed for us. Whether working with architectural plans for a 3,000 volume library or designing and building a simple bench, he is a pleasure to work with. He shares his wealth of knowledge freely, is a creative problem solver and a patient communicator. The time Tony takes in drafting detailed working drawings and talking through each project eliminates surprises and keeps projects on time and on budget with results that always exceed our most optimistic expectations. We’re lucky to have had Tony build a library, kitchen, bathroom and some custom furniture pieces for our home rehab project (see pictures). We look forward to continuing to work with him as we make progress on the house.

Our project with Tony consisted of a wall unit of bookshelves and cabinets. Working with Tony was a pleasure from the initial concept discussion, the architectural schematic, the selection of hardware and finishes and the project execution. Tony is an exquisite craftsperson and his attention to detail clearly shines through in his finished product. We could not be more pleased. We heartily recommend Tony O’Malley Custom Woodworking.

We asked Tony to create two bookcases for us over the past three years. The latest was completed May 2019 in one of our bedrooms.I would describe it as a standard built-in. However, Tony suggested that the main shelf and the runners for the sliding doors be made from cherry. This wood matched our other pieces of furniture in this room. A wonderful suggestion. The other was finished January 2016. It was based upon the Japanese tansu step chest. Note the use of different woods and the details on the cabinet doors. We often receive compliments on this bookcase. Tony is a superb craftsman who will work with you on design. He provided detailed estimates. He completed his work almost to the day that he estimated. We recommend him with enthusiasm!

We met with Tony and described what we were looking for — a vanity for our remodeled bathroom. Based on our specs Tony drafted our vanity. After a few minor tweaks he got to work. Our design called for a 72” wide vanity with single sink and included matching tall storage cabinets on either side of the sink with a framed mirror that fills the span between storage cabinets. Tony coordinated with the plumber to accommodate supply and drain lines and with the quartz counter installer. His meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail rates a 10 in my book.

Thank goodness for professionals like Tony. We cannot say enough positive things about Tony, the process and result of our custom built-ins. Tony was detailed oriented, paid attention to our thoughts/needs and delivered on the project within the scheduled timeframe. The result is a high-quality, beautiful built-in bookcase that exceeded our expectations. We would recommend Tony and his work without hesitation. He is very knowledgeable and talented and his work is of the highest quality.

Our beautiful Living Room display built-ins were built and finished professionally, delivered on time and on budget. Tony himself discussed our project with us, listened to design suggestions and provided an accurate estimate and contract up front. He either oversaw or personally executed all aspects of the job. Great attention paid to detail throughout. We're very pleased with the result. Yes, we recommend this professional, and we'll probably use him again.

Over the past 11 years, Tony has done multiple projects for us. We would hire no one else. He's done custom fireplace mantle, bar, cabinetry, entertainment center, curio and window casings. The projects are always done beautifully, on time and for a reasonable price. He is so easy to work with.

Tony made a custom barn door for our home renovation project and did an excellent job. He was thorough, detail-oriented, and responsive/communicative. He was a pleasure to work with, and our barn door is just beautiful. We receive compliments on it regularly and it ended up being just as we had envisioned. Wonderful craftsman.

Everyone should have the opportunity to own an wood object made by a master woodworker. Wood once lived. A master woodworker can bring wood back to something that is alive again. Tony O'Malley is a Pennsylvania-based master woodworker of more than 30 years, who brings common wood to life. He prepared a special box for me made of Pennsylvania native wood. The box held a presentation object for the CEO of one of the East Coast's largest corporations, The box had to be good and it had to have the "wow" factor so that the CEO would keep it forever,. O'Malley's creation did that for me. Tony took native Pennsylvania figured walnut, made a special box, and gave life back to wood. It is something that will live for a long time. I recommend his work with the highest compliments. ...Dave Butcher, St.Petersburg, Florida, entrepreneur
