Heights Woodworking

Apr 2022

Just wanted to thank Vaughn and his incredible team for working with a multitude of our woodworking projects for over 5 years. We have a 1910 home and thanks to Vaughn the restoration has been progressing smoothly. We have done all our mouldings with Vaughn and now working on a portion of our staircase that needs to be matched to the 1910 original. Amazing skill, gentle pricing and superior service. A big thank you from our family!

So, I bought a 12ft Teak butcher block counter from Lumber Liquidators that I needed custom cut. Vaughn was right around the corner. He was very inviting and informative and inexpensive. His shop was like Toyland to me because "make & do" stuff has always interested me. You should definitely visit this location on the banks of the Gowanus Canal (tee hee)It is required for new Brooklyners along with a ride on The Cyclone!!!

We had a great experience with Mr. Scully and his team of expert woodcrafters and installers. We contacted them for a new front door for our 100 year old house. While we were not in a landmarked area we did want to recreate the original look of the entryway. They got it. If you are interested in a door they will come to discuss the project and make many visits to make sure it's all what you want including photographing your entryway masonry, measurements, a sketch, and matching the woodwork in your vestibule. They can literally make what ever you want, so be prepared with some photos and a good idea what you would like. They have every thickness and type of wood and every kind of woodworking equipment for cutting moldings and trim for the door, even hand carving is available. Before we had our door built we were given addresses of other doors in the area that they made. Those doors were just gorgeous and we were very excited. The finished door lived up to all our expectations and then some. People stopped on the street to ask where we got that beautiful door! It took about 3 months start to finish. About a month of that was not their fault as the lock we wanted was back ordered. While making the door takes 1-2 weeks other things can delay the project. The door will go up in one day and will be lockable but 1-2 return visits will likely be needed to finish the job. While not budget priced the job was fairly priced. The quote includes everything: fabrication of the door, its trim and its surround (which is a lot of lumber even more than the door itself), the glass, the hinges and floor pins for a double door, install a new marble threshold if needed, install the locks, reinstall your doorbell and mail slot, repair and fill in cement if needed, and take all the debris away and clean up (these guys brought a shop vac with them!). I hope some of our neighbors decide to "go with" Heights and based on my experience I feel they will be very pleased.
