What we provide
We specialize in the design and fabrication of exquisite cabinetry, furniture, and commercial cabinetry.
Our collaborative approach with clients, architects, and designers allows us to unlock the full potential of their spaces. We take pride in tackling challenging projects, consistently surpassing expectations, and maintaining a strong focus on customer service throughout the entire process.
Regardless of whether it’s a significant commercial contract or a bespoke private project, approach each job with the utmost attention to detail and careful consideration of all the various factors at play, such as time constraints, budgets, other subcontractors, and design specifications. Our commitment to delivering the highest-quality work and design is matched only by our passion for crafting quality products that will enrich your home for generations to come.
Building Together
We are Jay & Deb… a husband & wife carpenter team with a passion for woodworking and a belief in providing quality services. We created Together We Build, a family owned and operated custom cabinet shop that is committed to providing the highest quality cabinetry, custom furniture, built-ins and customer service to our clients. We are dedicated to serving our customers with personalized services created by skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail. We take pride in our work and it shows.
We offer services for residential and commercial projects. All projects are completely custom fabricated in our shop which allows us to offer an extensive range of styles, wood species and finishes to all our clients.

How we work
1.
Initial Consultation
We offer a no-charge consultation to discuss your project and provide a price estimate under no obligation. We invite you to take advantage of our years of experience to explore the possibilities for your space.
2.
Design Process
Once we have all the necessary information, we can provide a formal proposal with detailed costs and a timetable. If you are ready to move ahead with the project, we request 20% of the total payment to secure a slot in our calendar. We then schedule a follow-up to start creating your unique design and discuss the particulars of your project.
3.
Fabrication
We present 3D rendering drawings, photos, and/or sample materials. When you are happy with the final design, we are ready to build. Shortly before building begins, we require a 60% payment towards the construction of your project, including ordering materials. We craft your piece(s) in our Stratford shop.
4.
Installation
The majority of construction takes place in our shop; this minimizes the amount of time for installations so that there is as little disruption to your home as possible. When fabrication is complete we will arrive on a scheduled install date. At this time, we ask for the remaining balance of the total payment. When entering your house we treat it like it is our own and take extra care to protect your floors and walls. We leave your space clean and ready for use.

Game changer just landed in the shop 🔥 Unboxing the updated Festool Domino and this thing is about to take our builds to another level. This isn’t just another tool… it’s precision joinery on demand. The Domino cuts perfect mortises in seconds and lets us create floating tenon joints that are insanely strong—basically giving us traditional mortise & tenon strength without the time-consuming setup.  What that means for us 👇 • Faster cabinet and furniture assembly • Dead-on alignment every time (no guesswork, no rework) • Stronger joints than biscuits or standard dowels • Repeatable, production-efficiency in our shop  The best part? It eliminates a ton of layout and measuring—just set, plunge, and go. This is how you scale quality without sacrificing craftsmanship. Big things coming with this one 👊 ⸻ #festooldomino #woodworkingtools #customcabinets #cabinetmaker #woodworkinglifeButton

It’s the details that separate custom from ordinary. Just received our solid brass drawer medallions—and they exceeded every expectation. Our logo, precision-embossed into real brass… weighty, refined, and made to last. This is the kind of detail most people won’t notice at first— but it’s exactly what elevates the entire brand. These will be integrated into our custom cabinetry as a signature mark—a quiet reminder of the craftsmanship, intention, and pride behind every piece we build. #CustomCabinetry #LuxuryCabinets #CabinetMakers #FineWoodworking #HighEndDesignButton
