The hand of the maker

For the past 30+ years alongside our sister companies New Energy Works and Pioneer Millworks, our team has strived to craft the finest custom woodworking available, all while remaining as sustainable and responsible in our efforts as possible.

Our team of dedicated craftspeople produce all of our fine woodworking projects from our shop nestled in the New York’s Finger Lakes region, just north of Canandaigua. Over the years we have been fortunate to work on a large variety of projects with homeowners, builders, architects, designers, and business owners from across the nation.

In that time NEWwoodworks has earned a reputation for our skill level, diversity of offerings, and for taking on the kind of projects few woodworkers would dare attempt. Thanks to a blend of experience, skilled hands, digital technology, and good-old-fashioned creativity, for us the more unique or the more difficult a project is – the better.
