Black Forest Woodworking

Steven and his team did an amazing job! Steven was the only company who was willing to work with us because the room from the wall to the firewall was very limited! Other companies we contacted said they could not do it. Steven did an amazing job! Very impressed on how it turned out!

Highly recommended!!!!

Steven and his team were fantastic to work with. One challenge was designing around an existing corner fireplace. The style of the original mantel would not have matched well so it was necessary to remove it and design a new mantel to meet and seamlessly transition to the new wall unit. The design also included puck lighting for the top row of the unit.

I have some experience with woodworking so it was a pleasure to see the care, attention to detail and the workmanship that was applied. I would say that the job was near flawless from consultation, design through to installation.

The cost was not cheap, but for something that very much enhances the look of our family room and that we intend to enjoy for years, it was worth the investment.

Steven and his crew did an amazing job on my wall unit/fireplace. At the beginning of the project Steven came over to discuss the design. He had an idea of what he would/could do. After our meeting he realized that I had some definite design ideas of my own which I shared. Together with his expertise and my ideas the plan was finalized. I can not express how professionally the installation was performed and the high quality of the workmanship of the actual wall unit/fireplace (height 9 ft x 12 ft wide). I now have an extremely beautiful built-in piece of furniture that matches my personal style and my other furnishings. Thank you to Steven and company for my unique one of a kind unit. I would highly recommend this company.

When we looked to have our Custom fireplace surround done for our family room we researched and received a few at-home quotes.
The person who impressed us the most was Steven from “Black Forest Woodworking Company”.
You could tell just by speaking to him that he is a very skilled and talented woodworker who prides himself in his work!
Steven gave us many helpful ideas to consider!

The end result was more than we expected! We couldn’t believe how beautiful it looks.
We are really overwhelmed by the workmanship & craftsmanship and impressed with his skill and meticulous attention to detail!
The owner Steven a great person and a true professional and a pleasure to work with.

I would highly recommend Steven from “Black Forest Woodworking Company”

Thanks again Steve and to your staff for taken the time to make sure everything turned out perfect!

You really cares and it shows!

I never write reviews but after my experience with Steven my husband and I knew we had to spread the word, for word of mouth recommendations are invaluable. Living in Toronto where the homes are older and are in constant need of repairs or upgrades, my husband and I have dealt with many contractors over the years. Steven was very professional and such a pleasure to work with. Steven takes such pride in his work and it really shows. Steven will provide you his input but was never pushy in his recommendations, he just wanted to ensure his clients were happy.
The media unit was absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out. We will absolutely use Black Forest Woodworking again without a question. I promise you will be happy with the level of service provided by Steven and his team
RELIABLE. HONEST.

Like every review on the Black Forest Woodworking Home Stars page, I have nothing but AMAZING things to say about Steven and his crew - which is why I choose them!!! Steven is a pleasure to work with which is a refreshing change for this industry, in my opinion, it's hard to find honest, hardworking people who love what they do, listen to the client and follow through on every aspect of what was agreed upon. Steven and I spoke a few times, we sent pictures back and forth via text message to ensure what I was envisioning was understood and Steven sent examples of what he could do to fulfill my vision. He came out once to take measurements and confirm colour, handles etc. Timelines were more than reasonable, even faster than I anticipated. Steven and his crew came to our house at 7 am on the day of installation and it was all done in one day. No inconvenience to me or my family. They covered furniture and the floors therefore we had very little to no clean up!! It was truly a wonderful experience and I love love love the unit. I can't even remember what it looked like before (except when I look back at pictures) it looks like it's always been there. I can't say enough good things about this company, the owner and the staff. You can see for yourself in the pictures attached. Steven is simply a very nice person who I am grateful I got the chance to meet and spend some time with. Thank you again

Steven was very professional and kept to the agreed timeline and costs. He sat down to the review the plan in detail and make recommendations. He built us a beautiful show piece in the entrance way of our home. We love having a space for our coats, boots, hats, keys etc. I highly recommend Steven and his team!

We are very pleased with the built-in storage unit Steven and his team built, and have nothing but admiration and praise for his professionalism, design ability, and craftsmanship. He listened to our ideas and storage needs, and came up with an excellent design for our difficult space (odd angles). We're so pleased with the beauty and function of our unit! We've worked with many tradespeople while renovating our house and Steven has been the very best. Thank you so much!

We found Steven on Homestars and we are absolutely thrilled with the laundry room design and cabinets which he created for us. He is very professional and the quality of his work is outstanding. He was very patient in working with us and truly a pleasure to work with. Installation took a day. No mess and went above and beyond by replacing damaged window trim on his own accord. We were amazed! He is now working on our fireplace mantel and are confident that we will be equally thrilled. We will be using Steven and his team for future projects ! Thank you Steven for all your help and expertise ! It was a pleasure ! Pictures to follow once painting is done !

I had sought out two other quotes for three media cabinets and storage units for our new home's dinning area and basement. Steven was by far and away the most responsive, professional, pleasant and capable of the three I spoke with about the work involved. His prices were also extremely reasonable and he was able to provide both a rough drawing of the three units my wife and I were considering along with an estimate on the very same day. When time came to do the work, he called us and contacted us regularly and managed to install two full media units long before his original time estimates which was simply amazing. His crew is no less professional and skilled than he is, and are very respectful of both you and your home while installing. Simply put, we could not be happier with the work done and craftsmanship is second to none. Steven and his crew's attention to detail are astounding. As such, we are currently in the process of planning to have Steven continue with a third media storage unit along with building a fireplace mantle for our gas fireplace. We have nothing but positive things to say and feel very lucky to have found him.
