Gary Hecht has been working with wood for more than 30 years. Designing and building custom cabinetry, restoration carpentry, lathe turnings, furniture, and Victorian millwork are his specialties.

Whether it’s turning a spindle to match the ones on your 100-year-old staircase, or rebuilding a porch to bring back its original look; Gary brings high quality work with the proper materials to each job. Custom cabinetry, built-ins, or designing and building an entire new kitchen are all part of what he does. Gary specializes in matching historic woodwork, including moldings, porches, and detail work. Gary can work from existing samples, or even match antique photographs to make your restorations authentic and ready to last another hundred years.
