    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!

    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.

    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!

    I recently worked with Lake Erie Woodworks to build a new conductor podium for the Westmoreland Symphony Orchestra. Armando was GREAT to work with. He listened to my needs and built a beautiful podium for our conductor. Armando/Lake Erie Woodworks has my HIGHEST recommendation!

    We ordered a custom-built kitchen table and bench, and we couldn’t be happier with Armando’s craftsmanship! He communicated design, wood options, paint and stain options, and detailing the whole way. Once he finished the table, he delivered everything and installed it, including making some features to the bench (adding an outlet to the front so we wouldn’t lose the convenience of the one behind the bench). The bench has so much storage and all of it is built strong enough to last a century.I can’t believe how affordable it was considering the level of detail he put into it. With such brilliant artisans like Lake Erie Woodworks, I can’t imagine us ever going back to a furniture store ever again.

    Incredibly easy to work with. Beautiful final product. Fair and reasonable price. Armando communicated with me every step of the way. Highly recommend for any specialty furniture you might need. Quality is top notch. I love my custom mantel.

    Armando worked closely with the clients, contractor, and myself to fine tune the design, fabricate, and install a custom walnut counter top for a kitchen island and it turned out amazing. The customers are thrilled, and are actually very interested in having him make another piece for the same space very soon! These pictures were taken before the finishing touches were done, but you get the idea.

    Armando and team are truly talented woodworkers. Not only are my new built-ins beautiful, but he also took the time to listen and plan a design that met every one of my expectations. I would work with them again in a heart beat!

    Thank you so much to Armando at Lake Erie Woodworks for a job well done! The sign we had made for our business is impressive and exactly what we were looking for. Armando is easy to work with and communicated with us through the whole project.

    They did an amazing job on a custom made bookshelf. It is absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I wanted. They were also very reasonably priced compared to other builders. Highly recommend Lake Erie Woodworks.

    I had a special project that required specialized help. I sat on this project for over a year because I could not find the right specialist in the Erie area. Then I stumbled onto Lake Erie Woodworks and Armando. Armando and his team were so easy to work with. They came up with suggestions and a solution. Within a couple of weeks my project was completed. The craftsmanship is top-notched and it looks great! Im more than pleased.Thank you Lake Erie Woodworks!John Lytle, Eastway Lanes, Erie Pa

    Armando and his team created a beautiful, mid-century platform king bed and matching nightstands for our new home! Absolutely fantastic to work with and we cant wait to start out next project! Incredibly talented craftsmen at Lake Erie Woodworks.

  • Review 19 (2022-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    The expertise and craftsmanship that went into making our front door and all interactions with Lake Erie Woodworks are both nothing less than extreme professionalism. The end result was exceptional just from a brief initial meet to discuss our ideas. They were able to match the stain perfectly with our existing woodwork, the door looks like its always been there. We are so very pleased and recommend them highly.

  • Review 20 (2019-11-23 - Rating: 5)

    Perfect - the only way to describe the custom cabinets and closet Armando crafted for our mudroom. He was able to create the mission/craftsman look we wanted at a very fair price while showing great attention to detail in matching wood grain so it looks like fine furniture. Armando also made sure we were 100% satisfied with the project. He is a true craftsman with pride of workmanship.

  • Review 21 (2021-06-08 - Rating: 5)

    We have a few of Armandos pieces in our home. When I was in need of a custom mirror for our master bathroom remodel, it was a no brainer. I gave Armando a couple ideas and a few measurements and it was a perfect fit. He kept me updated as the work came along, which was great. Looking forward to more beautiful custom pieces.

  • Review 22 (2022-09-15 - Rating: 5)

    I highly recommend Lake Erie Woodworks. Armando and his team did an excellent job creating the perfect tables for our business. High quality products and nice finish. Not to mention, they took time out of their day to help us install some other equipment. Will definitely work with them again.

  • Review 23 (2020-02-25 - Rating: 5)

    Working with Armando and his team was an absolute pleasure. He crafted custom cabinets for our kitchen and mudroom, as well as a bench seat for our breakfast nook. His attention to detail is that of a perfectionist and he is very transparent about delivering on his commitments regarding both the end product and his time frame. We look forward to working with him again on future projects within our home.

  • Review 24 (2019-07-25 - Rating: 5)

    I was so happy with the custom furniture that Lake Erie Woodworks built for me. I had a rough idea for what I wanted, and it was translated into a design that was beautiful, functional, and sized perfectly for the space. Moreover, it was fun to work with a local craftsman at an affordable price. Highly recommended!

  • Review 25 (2019-08-28 - Rating: 5)

    Exceptional skill with his craft, Armondo takes great care in producing quality pieces. He is able to meet and exceed customer expectations. He is very easy to work with and I’m thrilled to have such a skilled craftsman to refer my clients to.

  • Review 26 (2022-09-12 - Rating: 5)

    Absolutely LOVE Lake Erie Woodworks! They are kind, attentive, and hard workers. We had them build a window seat/ bench and the finish product looks like it’s always been there! I couldn’t have asked for anything better!

  • Review 27 (2022-11-21 - Rating: 5)

    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.

    I called and asked them to make a custom medal hanger for my sons awards. They made it exactly as I wanted and it was ready for Christmas. Pretty impressive since I requested it only a few weeks before. Excellent communication and workmanship. I would order from them again.

  • Review 29 (2021-03-18 - Rating: 5)

    Really impressed by the quality of the table from Lake Erie Woodworks. I brought Armando a mess of a half finished project and he managed to rebuild it into something pretty amazing. Strongly recommend.

    We trusted Armando and he didn’t disappoint! He built us several one of a kind pieces that everyone loves including us 🙂 Can’t recommend him enough!!

    Armando was great at working with us to create exactly what we wanted! He kept us informed during the project to give us updates and clarify our wants/thoughts on the progress. When he came to install our mantle, he and his staff were very professional. They left no trace of themselves behind, cleaning up thoroughly. This is a great small business to support!

  • Review 41 (2021-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    Working with Armando was a breeze. He understood what I needed and only asked a few questions to figure out exactly what I wanted. My new standing desk top is solid, sturdy, and looks amazing in my office. I would recommend Lake Erie Woodworks to anyone that is looking for quality work that will last.
