FAQ

Millwork in Avondale, answered.

How much do custom built-ins cost in Chicago?

Custom built-ins typically run $8,000 to $25,000 and up, depending on the wall size, wood, and finish. Furniture runs roughly $2,000 to $8,000 and shelving $1,500 to $6,000. We show you the range before any work starts and lock it before the build begins.

How does a millwork project work?

Five steps: consultation, design and price range, deposit and schedule, build, then delivery or install. We take 50 percent to reserve your spot and order wood, then 50 percent on completion. You see progress photos throughout, so the build is never a black box.

What happens when a project needs full installation?

When a job needs walls opened, plumbing moved, or a full room installed, we hand it to Purpose Design+Build, our sister build company. Same people, same standard, same traced wood. You get a design-build team for the big stuff without juggling two strangers.

Do you serve the Chicago suburbs?

Yes. We serve Chicago and surrounding suburbs including Oak Park and Evanston. Some furniture pieces ship beyond the area. Tell us your neighborhood on the consultation form and we will confirm coverage and a realistic timeline for your project.
