How To Work With Us

Send us your files

We can import a variety of file types into our Auto-cad program to begin putting together a quote for your next project. Most common file types we accept are .dxf, .dwg, .skp and .bmp. We can work with your sketchup files or we can draw your idea from scratch.

Once we have a design hammered out we can discuss materials and other options. We have an extensive network of suppliers for different types of material, or you can supply your own.

As soon as the design phase is complete, we will provide you with a set of drawings for approval. Once approved we just need a deposit to begin ordering material and preparing for the job. Typical lead times for small jobs are usually 1-2 weeks but we also process rush orders. Larger jobs usually require a longer lead time, but all of that is discussed before starting a project.

Once a project is completed parts can be boxed, palletized or simply stacked for pickup. Some projects require local delivery, which we typically use a courier service for, and others need to be shipped by freight or common carrier. You are always welcome to come by the shop to pick up your projects in person if this suits you.

We pride ourselves on great communication during the entire project, from start to finish. We will make the process as easy for you as possible. Give us a call today - we look forward to working with you!
