Terry built custom bookcases and cabinets , a window seat, and refaced our kitchen cabinets. We cannot say enough good things about the work Terry did for us. His cabinetry skills are top notch. He is a genuine, highly skilled craftsman, and we are so lucky to have found him. Terry did a wonderful job listening to our needs, and creating a design for the bookcases and cabinets we loved. When we had some changes to the design, he was happy to make the design changes. Once we signed off on the design, we waited for our bookcases cabinets to be built. When we saw them for the first time, we were so impressed with the quality and craftsmanship. Our bookcases and cabinets were exactly as envisioned and ordered. Everyone who comes to our home is so impressed with the work Terry did for us. We also loved working with Terry. He is such a wonderful person. We highly recommend him to anyone who needs custom cabinetry or kitchen refacing.- Doreen Chappell. 11/23/2019- Terry is an old fashioned (in a good way) craftsman who takes pride in his work and delivers a fantastic product with the hospitality of a southern gentleman. He works with you to get through any obstacles and makes sure you are happy throughout the entire process. His prices are fair and without overhead or middleman markups. Highly recommend.- Kevin Learned. 10/26/2019

- I have no regrets about contacting Terry for the home office we wanted to build! He was prompt to respond to my inquiry and scheduled an in-house visit within a week. He was very reception to what our ideas on the space were, offered some suggestions and put together a detailed draft within a couple weeks. Once we agreed on all the final details, he began work on the space and did a great job. He was able to rewire and create new outlets as needed, and did a seamless job incorporating the crown molding into our built-in. It looks like the bookcases were part of the house from original build. From start to finish the process was a couple months and I could not be happier with the final result. He is a professional carpenter and designer with a great personality and lot of fun to work with. Highly recommend Terry!- Danielle Budzko. 10/13/2019
- Terry did a great job in our kitchen cabinet refacing project. He brings a lot of experience to the job and helped guide us in our decisions. Definitely a pleasure to work with. He arrived promptly every morning and finished the job on time. Highly recommended.- Fran McDermott. 2/2/2019
- My wife and I began our Reston condo kitchen renovation some 5 months ago. Very early in the process we contacted Terry and he graciously gave us novices advice as to the stages and sequence to follow. When we finally took care of all other aspects, Terry arrived to tackle the cabinet refacing. He was supremely organized, punctual, respectful, and enjoyable to be around. His work was meticulous indeed and he even fixed several lingering issues pertaining to both inside and outside of our cabinets. He arrived promptly at 8 each morning and worked in stages to complete the project. He is truly a master craftsman who sought to minimize disruption in our shared space. He maintained good humor and kindness throughout and was most considerate of our time parameters. He was not satisfied until he felt that his work was perfect. With all the workers who have worked on our renovation, including "the night crew" (my wife and I), Terry was the #1 contractor we employed. We heartily endorse him and hope that you will have an experience as positive and productive as ours.- Steve Holmlund. 11/25/2018
- I am writing this review from the comfort of our new custom built-in cabinets and workspace. These custom built-in cabinets and workspace make me feel like I'm a VIP at a posh hotel, and everyone who has seen them is taken aback by the look, fit, and finish. The cabinets and workspace transformed a sitting room from one that lay essentially dormant for a decade to a functional and beautiful room that we use every day. That's a significant boost to our home's intrinsic value for us. If you are looking for high quality woodwork at a fair price, look no farther than Terry's Custom Woodworks. We are very satisfied with the quality of workmanship, timeliness, and value for our money. Terry was fun to work with, and delivered on his promise with a quality job, on time, and on budget. Now we can't move because we love this room! "Transformative" is the best word to describe what his craftsmanship achieved for us. What more could you ask for? Thanks Terry!- Wolfpack 46. 11/18/2018
- Terry designed and built a custom desk, bookshelves and file cabinets in our home office. We couldn't be more pleased with the results. At our first meeting, he listened closely to our ideas. His design included all our requirements and improvements we never would have considered. We chose cherry wood (an additional cost) and his care with the materials was evident. Terry is an "old-school" craftsman. He is personally invested in each project and wants his customers to be delighted.- Mark Deaton. 8/22/2018
- Terry recently completed a job refacing our 1984 real wood kitchen cabinets and building a custom pantry and cabinetry to accommodate a new appliance in our home. His craftsmanship is outstanding and his communication before and while on the job was superb. Terry offered fantastic suggestions to help us maximize the space, and we knew what to expect and when, and he worked with us explaining his design approach. Our kitchen functions in a much more efficient way, and we love the new, updated look. The doors and materials are top-notch, and the little extras he knew to put in to accommodate our modern family into our 1964 home were outstanding. We highly recommend Terry. Bonus - How we were fortunate enough to get a native Louisianan to be part of our household for the week over Mardi Gras is a special kind of luck. His personality and kindness is infectious, even with our curious cats inspecting his work at every turn. Terry was a joy to have in our home, and he's left his mark in the cabinets and in our hearts!- Tanya Mazarowski. 1/28/2018
- Terry is a master! He designed, created and installed our custom desk and double bookshelf cabinets. They look amazing and are built with amazing attention to detail. The only thing better than his woodworking skills is his wonderful personality. He is such a fun person to be around and work with. We definitely recommend his work for your home. We are definitely going back on our future home improvement projects.- Colin Echols. 0/20/2018
- Terry work with us to design and build custom cabinets for our pantry. He delivered a quality product that we are extremely happy with. We would work with Terry again on another product in a heartbeat. We have recently worked with a large contractor on a fully remodeled kitchen and experience multiple pain points. There was none of that with Terry.- TF Reuss. 6/2/2017
- Terry was extremely professional and helpful during our experience using both his kitchen cabinet refacing and custom shelf building services. Because I was still living out of the area when he was completing the work, I entrusted him completely with the design and the security of my home and he did not disappoint! My kitchen is gorgeous and the shelves he designed and built on both sides of my fireplace are absolutely perfect and just what the space needed! I would highly recommend Terry for his great work and great customer service!- Lindsey Grilliot. 4/21/2016
- We hired Terry to build a custom built-in entertainment center for our living room, and we could not be more pleased with the finished product! Terry paid meticulous attention to every detail from start to finish, and he is a consummate professional. The cost was reasonable, and we were pleasantly surprised by how quickly he was able to complete our project. Terry even returned after the cabinet was painted to make final tweaks and ensure everything was perfect. We look forward to working with him on future projects and recommend him without reservation!- Cameron Rabon. 3/13/2016
- Terry designed, built and installed a large custom, floor to ceiling cabinet/shelving unit in one of our bedrooms. The craftsmanship, quality of materials and final outcome is fantastic. He is very dependable, trustworthy, and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend him for any custom cabinet job and will certainly use him again when the need arises. Thank you Terry.- Brent Younce. 8/15/2015
- We couldn’t be more pleased with the craftsmanship from Terry’s Custom Woodworks. Terry is very easy to work with for a custom design that suits your needs. In 2014 he replaced our entry-way pocket door closet with a beautiful and much more functional built in cabinet, closet and storage unit with sitting area. He also transformed our basement with a custom built-in bookshelf, fireplace frame and mantel unit, and half-wall storage cabinets. Terry iterates with you on your design ideas, providing detailed drawings, and even mock-ups when necessary to ensure everyone is on the same page. He takes pride and care in his craftsmanship and strives to give you the best value for your dollar.- Brian Freed. 5/21/2015
- Terry's Custom Woodworks is the best! My husband and I recently converted our formal living space into a library with the installation of custom-built bookcases (Photo on Terry's Custom Woodworks) designed specifically for our space by Terry himself. Terry's experience, talent and eye for detail were exactly what we needed to get this job done and at a fair price. Terry takes great pride in his craft and will tweak and tweak again until he reaches perfection; a trait not found in most craftsman today. We highly recommend Terry to anyone looking add custom woodworks to his or her home, he is a consummate professional.- Jenn Womack. 5/2/2015
- Terry was recommended by our interior decorator. He is very professional, creative, punctual and easy to work with. He provided a detail sketch so we knew exactly what we were getting. I loved how he made suggestions that added to the project but also worked with what I wanted. He built the cabinet at his workshop then installed it in our house so the distribution in our house was minimal. He exceeded our expectations. He, also, checked in a few months after the project to make sure we still loved the cabinet and we do. Terry is a true craftsman that takes pride in his work. I highly recommend Terry’s Custom Woodworks.- D Troy. 4/29/2015
- We have found a wonderful attention to detail and a quality installation from this custom woodworking service. Terry takes extreme care and attention to the project needs. He stands behind his work and will correct any problems. He also makes every effort to meet project deadlines and fast track requests. Our Christmas holidays were enhanced last year when he delivered custom woodworking in a short time before the holiday. We highly recommend his services for anyone desiring custom millwork.- Samuel Gross Jr. 3/30/2014
