Frequently Asked Questions

Most pieces are built to order. I occasionally have a small selection of ready-made furniture and smaller handcrafted goods available for purchase. If you're looking for something specific, I'd be happy to discuss a custom commission.

Oak Moon Woodworking is based in central Maryland and serves clients throughout the Baltimore–Washington region. I also ship many smaller pieces throughout the United States.

The easiest way to get started is to fill out an inquiry form online. From there, I will reach out to  schedule a conversation about your space, needs, and aesthetic. I'll develop a design, finalize dimensions and materials, provide a quote, and begin construction once the design is approved and a deposit is received. Throughout the build, you'll receive updates as your piece takes shape. Finally, we will arrange a time for delivery, or finalize the shipping details for customers outside of the region.

The initial consultation is complimentary. For larger or more complex projects, a design fee may be required before producing detailed drawings. If you move forward with the project, that fee is credited toward the final cost.

A 30% deposit reserves your place in the production schedule and allows materials to be purchased. The remaining balance is typically due before delivery or installation.

Lead times vary depending on the complexity of the project and the current schedule. Most custom furniture projects take between 5 and 10 weeks once construction begins, while larger built-ins may require additional time.

Wherever possible I use local hardwood species sourced from sustainable forestry ecosystems. I also frequently incorporate “reclaimed materials”, which most often come from buildings torn down in the region. The wood species I work with most frequently are white oak, red oak, walnut, cherry, and hard maple. Other species are available on request. 

Often, yes. While an exact match isn't always possible due to the natural variation in wood, I can usually match dimensions, proportions, finishes, and overall style so the new piece feels at home in your space.

Yes. Local delivery and installation are available throughout Maryland and the greater Baltimore–Washington area and are incorporated into the sales price. Shipping outside of the area is a flat rate based on the size and weight of the piece being shipped.

Absolutely. Whether you have detailed drawings or simply a few inspiration images, they provide an excellent starting point. I'll refine the design into a piece that's both functional and uniquely yours.
