furniture design and build

Our son met Garnet at a fair in Russell and was very impressed with his work and prices. We were renovating our bathroom and needed a custom piece. Garnett listened, designed a beautiful piece that was far less than store price and exactly what was needed. I contracted with him for a dining table as a Christmas surprise, another beauty. Wish I knew the fellow 20 years ago!!

custom antique style furniture (sleigh bed; dining set & buffet; dresser; tv cabinet; armoire)

We knew Garnet Carmichael (Carmichael's Horse and Carriage Furniture of Lunenburg, Ontario)did custom antique style furniture and when we were in the market for a sleigh bed we looked him up and were pleased with what he told and showed us he would do. He listened very carefully to what we wanted and we have been happy with the result - so happy that we have since had him custom design and produce a dining set, a buffet, a dresser, a tv cabinet and an armoire - all tailored to our specific needs. The service included delivery and setup on site, which we very much appreciated. Quality and very reasonable price for furniture we are very proud to own.

Entire bedroom set (wardrobe, bookcases (2), end table

My husband and I met Garnet Carmichael in Brockville at an indoor marketplace. We immediately fell in love with his work and attention to detail. Every piece is solid and we are proud to have his work in our home. It will last for many generations.

Fine craftmen are very hard to find and Carmichael is one of the finest. His work is impeccable, clean, solid and always finished on time.

What could this company do to improve their services?
I cannot think of anything at this moment. Each piece is unique and as a matter of fact, my Mom accompanied me one trip and she was so impressed with his work that she bought two pieces for her own home.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
Go and see Carmichael. He is patient and is able to add important and relevant comments to make the entire experience really great.

Television Cabinet

We enlisted Carmichael Horse and Carriage to design and construct a television unit for our home. Garnet came to our home to listen to our very specific needs, and was very attentive. When the unit was delivered our expectations were definitely exceeded. The quality of workmanship, finish and materials are second to none. This piece is the focal point of our family room, all of our visitors comment on the beauty of the television unit. I would definitely recommend Garnet (and I have) to anyone.

Dining Room Buffet & Home Entertainment Unit

In the last two years, Garnet completed the above two projects for us. We are very pleased with his work; both pieces are very beautiful and everyone that visits our home comments on their beauty and unique design. Garnet is obviously very dedicated to his work and is very professional. His delivery times are very prompt and we can higly recommend his work to anyone.

A entertainment center,mrdicine cupboard, nightstands, table and benches, jelly cupboardand many other pieces.Service was great ready at the date I was told they would be. Friendly. Took the time to make sure he knew what I wanted...

I have a very big family and a very little house, Garnets furniture not only looks beautiful but is well thought out for a storage solution.I like the furniture so much that I plan to leave it as an inheritance for my children.I completley belive that it will be just as beautiful then as it is now.I have so much of it that my friends tease me and say that I am addicted to it.

Thank you Melonie for your posting . I often wonder if I should be sending people to Melonie's house, which might as well be my showroom . I'm glad to see you think enough of the furniture to take care of it and to be sending on with your children.

Thank you again so much! Garnet

I had an island built for my kitchen - two drawers - two doors - solid wood top.

I am so happy that I found this furniture contracter. His work is precise and the detail on my island is exactly as I explained it to him plus he was able to give me lots of very helpful information and little tips on different styles etc. He stained it the same colour as my cabinets and I went with a wooden counter top and he stained it a lighter colour and it has turned out even better then what I envisioned. I also was so thrilled at how quickly he was able to fill my order. I love my newest addition to my kitchen.

Furniture

Garnet knew exactly what I wanted by merely a description of words. The furniture he built exceeded my expectations. I have received countless compliments and it is my favorite piece of furniture. I have requested other pieces and will only have him build my custom furniture. He's the best furniture maker I have ever encountered and a great person to do business with!

Custom Wood Hutch for the Kitchen

As a HomeStars team member I am usually pretty hesitant to post reviews, but for Garnet I must make an exception. Garnet Carmichael recently agreed to make a custom reproduction hutch to fit our old country kitchen. We had looked at prefab cupboards and another custom builder, but felt that both were too modern for the complicated 130-year old room we were trying to complete. Fortunately, we ran into Garnet and his wife Maureen at the Spencerville Fall Fair.

Knowing that we were about to have an open house, Garnet made the hutch in less than three weeks and delivered it the day before, so that it would be here and ready for the party. Garnet was so great to work with in the design planning, asking what our plans were and drafting proposals. He even used the same accent paint we had used on other areas of the kitchen. The hutch looks so authentic and has already begun to transform our kitchen - of which all future plans have been charged to Garnet!

We would definitely recommend Garnet to anyone looking for custom pieces.

Very nice of you to post this review . I admire the fact that you are restoring your old home . I too think that historic homes like yours deserve a second chance . You won't find a new home with nearly the character and warmth . Thank you very much for your post and I sincerely look forward to being a part of any future projects you might want from me.

Respectfully: Garnet
