Black Forest Woodworking

In April, Steven and his crew constructed a wall of open shelving in my sitting room. The unit was put up in just one day as it had been pre-built in his workshop from careful measurements he had taken earlier. Steven was courteous, friendly and a skillful craftsman. When I decided to move my sound system on to the unit, he obligingly returned a few days later to drill the necessary holes. Now, 5 months on, I continue to love the unit. Not only is it an attractive sturdy piece of furniture, but it holds an incredible array of items: all my books, plants, a mini-bar, numerous storage baskets, speakers, CDs......the list goes on. All in all a terrific organizer. Thank you, Steven!

It was a pleasure to deal with Steven. He designed and built a very large wall unit for us. He took very detailed measurements on his first visit, sent a design a day or so later and then arrived 6 weeks later with his crew to do the installation over 2 days. The wall unit is stunning and the quality of the workmanship is very high. His crew was professional and very clean. We have asked him to quote on a second unit for the basement. Steven sets a high standard for his work and is a pleasure to deal with.

Steven built and installed our fireplace surround/mantle today. Both my husband and I are thrilled with the finished product. It has completely transformed our existing fireplace.

The mantle was built and fitted in exactly the time frame we were given.

Great job, thanks again Steven.

Steven did a great job of building a new fireplace mantle for me an my mother. His work is fantastic. I had no idea what I wanted but he made an excellent recommendation. I would not hesitate to recommend this company and would certainly use them again. Thanks again for my beautiful mantle.

After many unsuccessful attempts at trying to simply get a quote from other cabinet / millwork providers, I gave up utilizing the traditional approach and found HomeStars. I found Steven's company BlackForest with excellent reviews and gave him a call. Steven not only answered the call, but promptly came out to see the project and give me a price. I showed him some pictures I found on-line about what I wanted and he tweaked those to conform to my space. He was upfront with me and told me that the work would take "X" amount of weeks as they were busy and promised it would all be done by end June - July. I awarded him the work, and cross my fingers. Steven kept me up to date of the work in progress during the build phase which I found nice as I knew exactly what was going on and stuck to the dates as promised. His team completed the work just yesterday, and it came out amazing.

I am sure Steven will post some pics of my bar soon and you will see the quality and workmanship yourself.

I highly recommend them - their quality and level of detail is excellent and most importantly they stick to their dates, keep you up dated and return phone calls. Simple old fashion business ethics - something that is really hard to find in this day and age.

Steven - congratulations on your success and I look forward in working with you again in the near future.

Recently engaged Steven to build and install custom shelving/cabinetry in our living room, involving a fireplace mantle, various door styles and accommodations for a flatscreen TV. The installation and the end product were perfect.

We have recently hired Steven to built a window bench (in our kitchen) as well as a fireplace mantel (with build in bookcases) in our rec-room (basement).

Steve did an outstanding job. He was meticulous, punctual, and neat. I was very impressed with his systematic approach to the design. He made suggestions with respect to both the design and finish and he delivered excellent results. I recommend him without any reservation and I plan to use Black Forest woodworking in my next project.

Steven was highly rated on this website. He was very professional and gave us a competitive quote. He had many options and an eye for detail. He completed the work very quickly and efficiently, and the result was beautiful. I would definitely use his services again.

I had two corner fireplace mantels built and Steven and his crew did a FANTASTIC job on both - they've totally changed the look of the fireplaces. There was intricate work required on one of the mantels due to is proximity to the window and trim and the outcome is outstanding. I would highly recommed Black Forest Woodworking.

I found Steven Fekete, of Black Forest Woodworking, to be very professional, efficient and knowledgeable. He is definitely a master craftsman -- meticulous, neat and on time. I am 100% satisfied with the end product, and am pleased to show it off to everyone who visits. When it came to installation, Steven and his team were careful to keep the work space tidy and clean up before leaving. I will definitely keep Black Forest Woodworking on my list of professionals to "call again" when time for my next project. Thank you, Steven.
