Timeline varies by project complexity. Furniture pieces typically take 4-8 weeks, while kitchen cabinetry projects usually require 8-12 weeks. I'll provide timeline estimates as part of our consultation process.

Absolutely. Design consultation is included in every project. I work with you to create detailed drawings and select materials that bring your vision to life.

Yes, I can design custom cabinetry for any kitchen configuration. However, Maple Valley Woodworks is not a general contractor or renovation company. We specialize in fine furnishings and cabinetry, but will partner with your contractor for bigger renovation projects.

I work with a wide variety of domestic and exotic hardwoods, including maple, oak, cherry, walnut, and many others. Wood selection depends on your project needs, aesthetic preferences, and budget.

All of my work comes with a 5-year warranty on craftsmanship and construction. I stand behind every piece I create.

Investment varies significantly based on size, complexity, and materials. Being a truly custom shop, we can only provide estimates after our initial consultation.

We typically request 25-50% down payment depending on the complexity and material selection prior to beginning detailed design and materials ordering.

While we are not currently offering direct financing options, we can recommend financing partners who specialize in home improvement and furniture projects.

Yes. Our professional installers will handle all installation to ensure your custom piece meets our quality standards.

Our goal is your complete satisfaction with both the piece and how it functions in your space. Wood is a living material that continues to respond to its environment even after installation. We provide guidance on what to expect during the first few months as your piece naturally adjusts to your home's unique humidity and temperature conditions. This settling process is normal and ensures the long-term stability of your custom piece. We always include a reasonable adjustment period with every piece.

We primarily serve the greater central Iowa area, but are open to discussing projects anywhere in the continental US.
