"I was looking for a farmhouse/cottage style cabinet to use in my laundry room for a utility cabinet. I was hoping to find something antique but nothing was big enough. Armando created this perfect combination for us. It’s super functional but also has the look I was going for! Very knowledgeable and efficient, he had our project ready in several weeks. I’m enjoying my cabinet very much. I love that I can finally be organized!"

"I met with Armando last April and showed him my ideas and some pictures of what I had in mind for living room built ins. He asked me a lot of questions so that every detail was well thought out. Things I didn’t even think of as options, but so glad that I was given choices. This was the end result and I am absolutely wholeheartedly happy with how it turned out, better than I even imagined. I can’t get over how much bigger the room feels and how tall the ceilings appear now!"

"Armando crafted a beautiful table with benches to fit into a side sitting room of our house. We needed to be economical with the space in our cape cod-style house and he was able to bring to life the design that we wanted. The table looks beautiful and is constructed of stained white oak, so it’s now the sturdiest thing in our house. I would highly recommend Armando for any woodworking job that you want completed with the highest quality."

"We had custom bookshelves designed and built by Armando and his team. Not only were the shelves structurally perfect and beautiful, but the entire experience was great. Armando was communicative throughout, sending pictures of the work in progress and letting me come in to see the pieces as they were coming together. He even put them on wheels to facilitate moving them in the space. Thank you so much!!!"

"This was an all-around amazing experience! Lake Erie Woodworks was super quick to reply to my inquiry for a private class for our “wood” five year wedding anniversary and Armando was beyond accommodating. We made a gorgeous cutting board, and learned about all the machines, materials and steps involved. Armando is very knowledgeable and such a talented woodcrafter, it was a pleasure working with him. He is also very engaging, and involved in the community- being from NYC we loved hearing all about Erie! Armando gave us great insights into the history and current events in Erie and also provided us with amazing recommendations for locally owned shops, restaurants, breweries and even a distillery. We will definitely be back, and hope even to purchase one of his beautiful custom-made furniture pieces."
