After months of searching the web I found Daniel's shop. It is always a leap of faith when sending money to someone you have never met for something that was a conversation and some rough sketches and I can say Daniel did not disappoint. I ordered 5 custom newels posts that were a rough sketch of a memory of one I had seen 35 years. They arrived on time packaged by someone who took pride in their work. The newels were perfect. Quality wood, quality work, quality finish, quality customer service. A win for both of us.

I ordered the Old French Balusters to replace the builder-grade ones in my dining room. What Daniel created was beyond gorgeous! They were beautifully crafted and sanded perfectly smooth, took stain very well, were quickly and easily installed, and look absolutely amazing with the Intricately Carved newel post he also made for me.

I ordered the Intricately Carved Newel Post and matching balusters to replace the builder-grade in my dining room. What Daniel created was beyond impressive in every way! He carefully assessed my situation, advising me on measurements, installation, etc. When I received and opened the products, I was thrilled to see such beauty and high quality. After staining, the install was smooth and quick. Perfection! Thank you Daniel, my dining room looks like the stuff of dreams!

Daniel is an absolute gem. He worked through the dozen newels we ordered from him for our large staircase. It required several revisions and Daniel was on point for all. He was extremely communicative and was able to move quickly turning around our order within a few weeks. His craftsmanship is stellar and work ethic second to none. Thanks Daniel for making our staircase a true gem -

These were perfect in the white oak for staining. The craftsmanship and detail on the wood post was excellent.

These newels are substantial and well worth it. Very well crafted and such a gorgeous addition to my home. Thank you!

We are so happy with our custom newels… Better than we could have imagined! Great communication and fast shipping. 100% recommend!

Daniel is very quick to respond to questions and comments. He created our custom Newell post from an inspiration pic, within days! They look fantastic.

You will NEVER be disappointed hiring this gentleman for ANY of your millwork needs, we can’t say enough about his work ethic, skill,, or professionalism.
He has become our go-to if we should ever need another job done.
Thank you Daniel for all you’ve done, your work speaks for itself…..
Kind Regards..

I knew the second I saw these Newell posts that they’d be perfect for my new staircase and they did not disappoint! Everyone who sees them asks me where I got them and how much they love them. The craftsmanship is second to none. Worth every penny!!!

I am an interior designer that was put in a unique situation. We had time constraints. Our custom builder was giving options that were not okay with me nor my design. My search for unique hand crafted newels paid off. I knew what I did not want... the mission style square newel that is in every house. The design is in the details! I searched and searched and knew I found what I was looking for with Daniel. His newels are just simply amazing. They are solid and beautiful. I love that they are front and center when you enter our home. Statement pieces and conversation pieces! Every person that has come into our home comments how amazing they are.
We had a not so conventional whole house remodel (100ft double oak tree took out half of our house in a massive storm). Time was not on our side. Daniel was so accommodating and we were very appreciative. He went above and beyond to help us. He was able to get the newels to us in record time. Our builder could not believe how quickly he could get these beautiful newels to us. I will never forget the look on the builders face when he saw them. Yep. Not your mission style square newel here! They are pieces of art.
I love working with small businesses. Not only is the artistic craftsmanship there but so is the human element.

My husband and I wanted to find newel posts for our new custom home we are building (we move in this week!) that were unique and unlike others seen in many homes. After reading the reviews from past customers, we decided to reach out to Daniel. We love being able to not only have the craftsmanship in our home but being able to help small businesses out in the process is a plus!

All of our woodwork in our new home is maple, from the cabinets to trim to stairs rails and treads. We asked Daniel if he was able to get maple newel posts in as that choice wasn't specifically listed and he made it happen! He said yes!

Daniel's customer service and response to any questions we had were prompt and he kept us updated on his progress and timing of shipment. The newel posts were carefully packaged and arrived perfect! As soon as we opened them up, we fell in love. The quality cannot be beat. Even our builder's jaw dropped at how nice and solid they were!

I wanted to share our experience and photos to show the amazing love Daniel puts into his pieces. We had our posts stained to match our trim and maple treads. I couldn't find our pictures of the pre-stained posts, sorry! But trust me, they were stunning without stain too!

We will cherish them for a very long time. I hope my review helps you decide to take the leap like we did, you won't be disappointed! Thanks again Daniel for helping make our house a home! We can't say thank you enough!

Newel post was beautiful, and delivered quickly!!

Love it!!!! Unique and beautiful.

Daniel did an AMAZING job creating the perfect newel posts for me. He was able to customize them to just the size I needed and he had them shipped sooner than expected. Couldn’t be happier! He is a true craftsman! Highly recommend!!
