One team, from the drawing to your home.
TCS Woodworking is a custom woodwork shop in the Hudson Valley. We build custom cabinetry, fine millwork and bespoke furniture for homes across the Northeast — recently, the Hudson Valley and Nantucket. We draw, build and finish everything in our own shop; delivery and installation are arranged around your project.
One team carries your project from the first drawing to the finished piece, on one documented process. Every job is drawn in-house and built in our own shop, with one point of contact from the first conversation to delivery.
You approve the drawings before a single board is cut. Everything we build comes off them.
Cabinets and millwork, built to one shop standard.
Home cabinetry is the heart of the work — kitchens, built-ins, vanities and closets — along with the millwork that ties a room together. Every box is veneer-core plywood, top of the line. Built whole, or flat-packed on request.
Kitchens
Fully custom, inset or overlay, with matching appliance panels and waterfall-stone coordination.
Built-ins and feature walls
Media walls, bar walls and fitted millwork that treat a whole wall as one designed piece.
Vanities
Wall-hung or floor-set, single or double basin, fitted exactly to your room.
Closets and storage
Fitted closets, pantries, utility storage and floating shelves, all to the same standard.
Interior and pocket doors
Interior and pocket doors made to match the rest of your millwork.
Moldings and millwork
Trim, casings and architectural millwork — stock, or drawn for you.
Furniture
Wood countertops and one-of-a-kind furniture pieces.
White oak, cherry, maple, poplar, Medex. Paint-grade to natural finishes; exotic species on request.
Cabinets arrive assembled: plywood boxes, pre-finished maple interiors, face frames built to the approved drawings. We can also flat-pack — each cabinet with its own build sheet and photo, on four-way pallets — and arrange shipping around your site.
Veneer-core plywood, top of the line — never particle board. Inset or overlay fronts, soft-close hardware throughout, and beaded face frames where the design calls for them.
We draw, build and finish everything in-house. Delivery is arranged around your project; installation is available through our contractors, or your builder's crew sets it from labeled parts.
Recent residential work
Kitchens, vanities and built-ins we have built lately — each one measured to its room.
Five stages. One contact. Nothing cut until you sign.
Every job runs the same documented path, so you always know where your project stands and what protects you at each step.
Discovery
What you getA priced proposal within five business days of receiving your drawings.
Before you commitThe scope is priced before you commit to anything. Work begins with a design deposit — 10% of the job, capped at $1,500 ($5,000 on jobs over $100,000) — every dollar applied to your total.
Design
What you getYour architect's drawings, checked and verified, then full elevations, sections, plans and shop drawings for your review — issued with the 30% invoice.
Where change stopsYou review and mark up the drawings twice, then the design locks. A change caught here costs a revision; on site it costs a cabinet.
Sourcing
What you getWord that your material is in the shop, and the date your build begins.
No late surprisesAnything with a long wait is identified and ordered against a locked drawing, not a moving target — so you hear "four weeks" or "we start tomorrow" while it still matters.
Production
What we doYour approved drawings become cut files and the build begins: a build sheet and photo for every cabinet, then assembly, finishing and inspection.
Nothing sorted on siteEvery part is cut to exact size and labeled Project → Room → Wall → Run, matched to the drawings, so nothing is puzzled out in your home.
Delivery
What you getPhotographs of your finished pieces before anything leaves the shop, your sign-off against them, then delivery. The 85% invoice follows that sign-off.
A clean setEverything moves at once, staged in the order it goes in. Delivery is coordinated within roughly 150 miles; installation is available through our contractors, or your builder's crew sets it from labeled parts.
One point of contact from the first drawing to the finished room, so nothing is lost between the people who design your project and the people who build it.
The unglamorous parts, covered.
Fully insured. Certificate of insurance available on request.
A design deposit, then 30% when your shop drawings are issued, 85% when the work is complete and you have seen photographs of it, and the balance on delivery. Projects over $100,000 are put on a schedule worked out with you.
Work warranted free from defects in workmanship for one year from delivery, per our services agreement. Excludes normal wear, misuse, and improper installation or modification by others.
Shop pickup is standard — most builders collect for their clients. We coordinate delivery within roughly 150 miles; beyond that, by arrangement.
A signed change document, a revised drawing, an agreed fee, and the timeline stated up front. You review drawings twice; changes after the design locks carry a fee.
The piece that arrives is the piece on the drawing you approved. Set once, on schedule, with one point of contact from the first line to the final fit.
Most of our work is repeat work — the same builders, season after season.
Send your drawings — or simply call.
If you have an architect's set, send it: five business days after it reaches us, you will have a priced proposal — scope, timeline, inclusions and exclusions. If you are earlier than that, start the conversation. Either way: one shop, from the drawing to delivery.
