Santa Rita Millworks

"I ordered a finished 4ft live-edge slab from Santa Rita Millworks and it's looks great as a multi-use desk/table! I've gotten so many compliments from friends already. Andrew is very knowledgeable about the entire process and allows you to choose your slab from his enormous selection of locally-milled cedar. He does a thorough job of finishing his projects and is super easy to communicate with. Prices are unbeatable too. Highly recommend getting your live-edge desk, benches, and slabs from this cool local small business!!"

"I was interested in making a simple live edge writing desk and Andrew had the perfect wood slabs and was incredibly helpful. While his own finished desks are gorgeous and super reasonably priced, I wanted to finish it on my own and he gave me all sorts of helpful tips and tricks about how to best do that. Incredibly friendly and helpful - highly recommended! Picture is of the unfinished raw cedar slab which I will soon turn into a desk."

"Andrew was great to work with. My wife and I have recently purchased many hand made pieces for our new home. He was by far the easiest to work with. Fair prices, top quality. We purchased a teak entry table and teak bench. Locally sourced slabs. Will surely do business with him again."

"Andrew was so easy to communicate with and so friendly! I bought the 4-foot desk and it’s gorgeous! Andrew was also very helpful with tips for care of the table. Highly recommend!"

"The desks Andrew makes are the perfect size for a home office with a laptop, especially if you live in a smaller space. These photos are taken in my studio apartment. Really easy to install a monitor arm and laptop stand on it to create some more space. You can have anything from the smallest laptop up to a dual monitor setup. With the monitor arm I have, I can flip it around the other direction and use it as a TV. The live edge wood slab makes a beautiful, natural addition to many types of spaces and is an extremely simple way to add a lot of quality/class to your space. I greatly enjoy the minimalist finishing coat on my desk.. it's not super glossy the way that a lot of tables like this are (they use a thick coat of epoxy usually), but instead a nice matte/satin finish that preserves the natural look of the wood. Mine is made with Eastern Red Cedar and has a beautiful color and grain..he has other types of wood available as well."
