ABOUT US

CRAFTSMANSHIP ROOTED IN TRADITION

Since 1985, we've been transforming wood into timeless pieces that tell a story.

"Every piece of wood has a story waiting to be revealed through careful craftsmanship."

OUR STORY

BUILDING DREAMS SINCE 1985

What started as a one-man workshop in a small garage has grown into a team of master craftsmen dedicated to the art of woodworking. Founded by Tom Fletcher, Gilbert Artisan Co. was built on a simple philosophy: quality over quantity, craftsmanship over compromise.

Over the past three decades, we've had the privilege of creating custom furniture, complete renovations, and architectural installations for hundreds of satisfied clients. Each project is a collaboration, a chance to bring your vision to life with our expertise.

Today, our team combines traditional joinery techniques passed down through generations with modern technology and sustainable practices. We're not just building furniture—we're creating heirlooms.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

CORE VALUES

The principles that guide everything we do

Sustainability

We source 100% of our timber from FSC-certified forests and reclaim historic wood whenever possible to minimize our environmental footprint and preserve nature for future generations.

Precision

Beauty is nothing without structural integrity. We combine traditional joinery techniques with modern CAD precision to ensure every joint is perfect and every measurement exact.

Collaboration

You are the architect of your dreams; we are the builders. We maintain transparent communication and involve you in every decision from the first sketch to the final polish.

Quality

We never compromise on materials or workmanship. Every piece that leaves our workshop meets the highest standards and is built to last for generations to come.

Passion

Woodworking isn't just our profession—it's our calling. Every team member brings genuine enthusiasm and dedication to their craft, treating each project as if it were their own.

Innovation

While we honor traditional techniques, we embrace new tools and methods that improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. We're always learning and evolving.
