Reviews
"I had Matt and west Oakland wood works create a wooden amplifier stand with storage. I gave him the specs of the amplifier and he knocked it out of the park with the detail and end result of the amp stand. The colors were very tasteful and quality is impeccable. Definitely an heirloom piece that I will have for generations to come. Cannot recommend West Oakland Wood Works enough for any project, the creativity and quality of the piece I commissioned is bar none. Thank you Matt."
"Everything about working with Matthew was amazing. I saw a desk identical to the one he made for me online for a very high price. After finding the almost exact legs in Etsy (handcrafted by Carolina Leg Company in North Carolina), I researched local woodworkers to have the desk top made. Matthew was thrilled to work on the project and said he's be able to craft the desk fairly close to the inspirational image I sent him. And he completely delivered! The final stain is even better color than the original desk I saw! I can't wait to style my office. Matthew was very responsive and kind, and right on time! 10/10 recommend working with him on any custom wood project!"
"We connected with Matthew for a custom high top table after a remodel. He was great to work with in the design process. He took into account the colors of cabinets, etc when helping me select a wood. We love the table it is a perfect fit to our space."
"I've been lucky to see a lot of what Matt has made since knowing him. Every single piece is beautiful, but I'm especially glad because I got a table of my own! I custom requested a shelf for books, remotes, etc., and he delivered. I love this table so much and you should get one of your own!"
"Matthew Woolley inspired confidence in us as a furniture builder as soon as we met him. We wanted a custom Dining Room table to be a useful and beautiful centerpiece for our Dining Room in an older classic home. Matthew had some great recommendations and listened to our concerns as to what we visualized that we actually wanted. Matthew procured some black walnut slabs which were bookmatched. He recommended a known style of base and we discussed some modifications which make the piece more comfortable to sit with and keep clean. Matthew took all our comments and needs into consideration. In short, Matthew built a beautiful and functional piece of furniture with some custom touches ( functional use and architecturally placed bow-tie splices ). We love the table and we feel like the price for material and labor has been very fair . Matthew brought the table from Oakland to Napa and assembled the top onto the base . We are very happy with the result and will use Matthew and will seek his services in the future for a matching Dining sideboard."
