Central Woodwork

Pros: This company has the most readily available products for trim and doors in Nashville.Cons: Terrible sales department. If you call, don't bother leaving a voicemail. I have never had a return call in the past 5 years I've been a Contractor. If they put you on hold, you're gonna be on hold for a very long time.Products used to be above average quality. Lately, the quality has seemed rushed. Last ordered was a pre hung interior door and the jamb was too small for the door. I had to hammer it out ¼" to make it work and just fill the gap with caulk.I wish they'd get it together. I want to give this company more stars.

I see suboptimal reviews of CW on this site, which amazes me as I found them awesome. VERY long story short--bought ancient house a yr+ ago and original backdoor was deteriorating and hanging from a hinge. Initially went the Habitat/Preservation Station route to find vintage replacement. Those are terrific places--I love them! But no doors that fit were available. Started calling carpenters, numerous handymen, and wood-workers. Only half called back and when they came out, seemed interested but then I never heard from them again. A year (and cold winter!) went by with "hole-y" door so unstable it dragged on floor. Recently, after an East Nash neighbor was delivered a CW door, I called Paul at CW, visited their office on Melrose, and Paul spent ample time discussing options. Left with an estimate and names of a few installers CW recommends. Today--a year after this miserable search began, but only a few weeks after finding CW, my new door (plus transom) was installed. Wood, minimalist (like I wanted), and functional. I wish I had gone to CW a year ago. Note: you don't have to use installers CW recommends--I chose to as I was in a hurry and they (The Door Guys) promptly answered phone calls, which is a rarity right now. So here is new door--not yet painted (will do that myself), and window shade came from old door. But a very very welcomed sight. I cannot recommend CW enough.

Best prices in town, on doors, as all local vendors buy doors here. Knowledgeable staff. Glad at least one rich family own and operates a window and door company. Set up to sell to the trades, but offer no discount to cash sale Contractors. They have a nice showroom and polite salespeople. Great place to select with clients. Contractors beware...I shop any where else possible.It takes hours to get inaccurate orders that usually get damaged in delivery.If you have to pick up a piece of molding, this is probably not the place to shop, but if you are a builder, ordering a whole house, Yes, great place
