WHAT WE BUILD · CUSTOM MILLWORK SERVICES
Custom Millwork Nassau County — Handcrafted Architectural Details
Millwork is what separates a house from a home. It’s the detail work that gives rooms depth, character, and a sense of craftsmanship you can feel the moment you walk in. Kevin and Matthew don’t order prefab moldings from a catalog — they design, build, and install custom millwork Nassau County homeowners can’t get from a big box store or a general contractor. All our work meets architectural woodwork industry standards for quality and craftsmanship.
Wainscoting & Wall Paneling
Raised panel wainscoting, flat panel shaker-style wainscoting, beadboard, and board-and-batten — we build and install all styles. Wainscoting transforms plain drywall into something with real architectural presence. We custom-size every panel to fit your room’s dimensions and match the proportions to your ceiling height so it looks intentional, not like an afterthought. Common installations include dining rooms, hallways, staircases, and living rooms.
Fireplace Surrounds & Mantels
A custom fireplace surround is the focal point of any room. We build full surrounds — from the hearth to the ceiling — with integrated mantels, pilaster columns, panel details, and crown molding caps. Whether you want a traditional colonial look or something more contemporary with clean lines and stone accents, Kevin designs and builds it to fit your fireplace dimensions and room style exactly. No two are alike. See examples in our project gallery.
Built-In Cabinetry & Shelving
Built-ins are the ultimate combination of function and craftsmanship. We design and install custom bookshelves, entertainment centers, window seats with storage, mudroom cubbies, pantry shelving, and home office built-ins — all sized to fit your exact wall dimensions and designed to match your home’s existing trim profiles. We recently built a custom rollout pantry under a staircase during a kitchen remodel — the kind of piece you can’t buy off a shelf. Unlike furniture, built-ins become part of the house and add permanent value.
ALSO INCLUDED · ARCHITECTURAL TRIM & MOLDING
Custom Millwork Nassau County — Crown Molding & Architectural Trim
Crown Molding
Custom crown molding installation throughout your home — from simple profiles to multi-piece built-up crowns that create dramatic ceiling transitions. We handle inside corners, outside corners, and cathedral ceiling angles that most installers avoid.
Window & Door Casings
Custom window and door casings that match or complement your home’s existing style. We build traditional colonial casings with backband and header details, or clean contemporary profiles — whatever fits the house. Properly done casings frame every opening in the room.
Baseboards & Chair Rails
Custom baseboards sized to match your room’s proportions — not the standard 3-inch builder-grade stock. Chair rails that tie into wainscoting or stand alone as accent details. We match existing profiles in older homes or create new ones that elevate the entire room.
WHY CREATIVELY DONE HOMES IMPROVEMENTS · CUSTOM MILLWORK NASSAU COUNTY
Why Choose Creatively Done Homes Improvements for Custom Millwork Nassau County
1
Built by Hand, Not Ordered from a Catalog
Kevin and Matthew design and build every millwork piece themselves using professional-grade tools with HEPA dust extraction. This isn’t prefab trim ordered online — it’s custom carpentry sized to your specific walls, ceilings, and architectural style.
2
We Match What’s Already There
Nassau County’s older homes have trim profiles you can’t buy at a lumber yard anymore. Kevin identifies the existing profile and matches it so new work blends seamlessly with the original. No mismatched moldings.
3
Structural Expertise Informs the Finish
Most millwork installers don’t do structural work. We do — which means when a wall comes out and a beam goes in, the same hands that handled the structural modification build the custom millwork that finishes the room. No handoffs between trades, no miscommunication, and a cohesive result from framing to final trim.

FREQUENTLY ASKED · CUSTOM MILLWORK NASSAU COUNTY
Custom Millwork Nassau County — Frequently Asked Questions
What is custom millwork?
Custom millwork is architectural woodwork designed, built, and installed specifically for your home — wainscoting, fireplace surrounds, built-in cabinetry, crown molding, baseboards, window and door casings, chair rails, and any decorative or functional wood detail. Creatively Done Homes Improvements Inc. builds every piece by hand, sized to your room’s exact dimensions and matched to your home’s architectural style. The result is detail work that looks like it was always part of the house.
How much does custom millwork in Nassau County cost?
Crown molding for a single room runs $800–$1,500. Dining room wainscoting typically costs $3,000–$6,000. A full floor-to-ceiling fireplace surround with integrated mantel and wainscoting ranges from $5,000–$15,000+. Whole-house millwork projects — crown, wainscoting, casings, and built-ins across multiple rooms — are priced based on scope. Kevin provides a detailed written estimate after measuring your space and discussing design options. No guesswork, no surprises.
Can you match the existing trim in my older Nassau County home?
Yes — matching existing trim profiles is one of Kevin’s specialties. Many Nassau County homes built in the 1950s through 1980s have molding profiles that are no longer available as standard stock. Kevin identifies the existing profile, sources matching material, or mills custom pieces so new millwork blends seamlessly with the original. Mismatched trim is immediately noticeable and makes new work look cheap. When we add custom millwork Nassau County homeowners want it to look like it was always part of the house — and it does.
How long does a custom millwork project take?
Crown molding in a single room takes 1–2 days. Dining room wainscoting typically takes 3–5 days. A full fireplace surround takes 1–2 weeks. Whole-house millwork across multiple rooms takes 3–6 weeks. Kevin and Matthew build components either in their shop or on-site — whichever approach delivers the tightest fit and best finish for that specific piece and installation. Either way, pieces arrive at your home ready for final fitting, which minimizes disruption and ensures clean, precise joints throughout.
What’s the difference between millwork and trim?
Trim is the basic moldings that finish a room — baseboards, door casings, window casings. Millwork is the broader category: wainscoting, fireplace surrounds, built-in cabinetry, crown molding, chair rails, and architectural panels. Trim is the minimum finish. Millwork is the upgrade. Custom millwork adds depth, dimension, and architectural character that flat drywall and basic trim never provide. It’s the difference between a room that’s finished and a room that feels crafted. We also offer complete home renovations that combine millwork with new flooring and painting for a total room transformation.
What kind of transformation can custom millwork deliver?
The kind that makes a homeowner stop and stare. In East Meadow, we were called to a home with a 1970s brick fireplace — end-to-end solid brick wall, the original brass doors, exactly what you’d expect from that era. Nothing wrong with it structurally. Everything wrong with it visually. Kevin designed a full transformation: two flanking built-in cabinets with 18-inch deep lowers and upper shelving units running to the ceiling at 12-inch bookshelf depth. A custom millwork surround with a new mantel. A raised bluestone hearth replacing the original brick base. The brass doors were gone. The wall was gone. What was a dated focal point became the architectural centerpiece of the entire living room — magazine quality, the homeowner’s words. Before and after photos are in our project gallery. That’s what custom millwork does. It doesn’t just finish a room. It defines it. Learn more about Kevin and Matthew’s craftsmanship approach.
