Our interest is in heritage architecture and we are familiar with the finely detailed differences of many traditional styles. Workmanship is of the highest calibre. We are committed to quality, precision, and service excellence.
We hired Uli to create a number of modern pieces for our bedroom renovation.
For our master bedroom, Uli created walnut closet doors and a matching headboard. He also created a birch king-size storage bed, and floating side shelves on both sides of the bed. For our guest room, Uli created a bank of modern-style alcove bookshelves.
In order for us to be satisfied that we would get just the right look in the doors and headboard, Uli took us to Toronto to hand select the walnut veneer that would ultimately be the showpieces of our master bedroom.
In terms of Uli's work style, several things must be noted:
-He understands the modern style
-He is a very good listener
-He is very responsive - everytime we asked him something by email or via phone, we always received a quick response.
-He had all of the work completed on time
He exceeded our expectations for craftsmanship and service, and without hesitation, we recommend Uli and Old World Woodworking for modern design furniture and cabinetry.
We recently renovated a stone cottage downtown.
Uli built our kitchen cabinets and a hutch for us. All timelines were met, the hardware is wonderful, the workmanship is excellent. Our kitchen is a joy to look at and to use.
We love it!
Uli and his team designed a unique set of built-ins for two rooms in our main living areas. This involved creating a track system to allow custom art pieces to slide back and forth in front of the television, above the mantle (also created by Uli), as well as a hidden office space to house the computer and all components, a bench seat, a variety of storage solutions, and planning for accommodating hidden wiring for a home theatre. The result was unbelievable. Everything looks like it has been here since the house was built- no small feat considering how old and bowed the walls, ceiling and floors are! Uli and his team are meticulous, professional, clean and somewhat perfectionist. They surpassed our expectations- particularly when they gave us a time line during our estimate, and managed to complete it on time! Unheard of! Definitely using them again for future jobs, and will recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone. True master craftsmen.
Uli did a great job planning an installation that presented unique challenges. We really had no idea that such a beautiful solution could be found. (We wanted radiator covers with certain unique requirements.) Uli's team did a great job working according to his plan and installing the pieces carefully. We're delighted with the results.
Unbelievable work. Fantastic workmanship. My wife and I are so pleased with the work done on our Mantle. It is unbelievable the way the grain has been brought out. We have a one of a kind Mantle. Everytime we look at it it makes us feel so alive. It seems to speak to you of the Love and Care that was taken to make the piece. I would highly recommend Uli and his Craftsmen at Old World. If you want perfection they can give it to you. From Uli down to his Installers they take pride in their work. Great Job Uli and the Guys at Old World. Thanks so much.
