Custom Residential Millwork

Handcrafted Details That Define Your Home

Handcrafted Details That Define Your Home

Custom millwork transforms a well-built home into an extraordinary one. It's the built-in bookshelves that frame a living room perfectly, the wall paneling that adds depth and character to a dining room, the crown molding profiles that tie architectural details together, and the window seats and banquettes that turn unused space into functional beauty. These are the details that make a home feel truly bespoke.

Lion Construction Management designs and installs custom residential millwork across NYC and Long Island. Our craftsmen build wall paneling, wainscoting, coffered ceilings, crown and base molding, built-in cabinetry, entertainment centers, mudroom storage systems, wine storage, and architectural details that are measured, fabricated, and finished to fit your space precisely. Every piece is built to your specifications with attention to wood selection, grain matching, and finish quality.

We handle the complete process—field measurements, shop drawings, fabrication coordination, delivery, installation, and finishing. Whether you're adding millwork to a new construction project or retrofitting character into an existing home, our team delivers work that looks like it's always been there.

What's Included

How We Work

1

Design & Measurement

Detailed field measurements and design consultation to define profiles, wood species, finish, and layout. We produce shop drawings for your approval before fabrication begins.

2

Fabrication

Custom fabrication in our partner millwork shops using premium materials—kiln-dried hardwoods, MDF for paint-grade work, and veneers for large panels. Quality control at every stage.

3

Installation

Precise on-site installation with scribing to walls and ceilings, level and plumb adjustments, and seamless joints. We protect finished surfaces throughout the process.

4

Finishing & Touch-Up

On-site finishing including caulking, filling, sanding, priming, and final paint or stain application. We ensure every detail is flawless before project completion.

Custom Residential Millwork, Answered

Lion Construction Management installs all types of residential millwork—wall paneling, wainscoting, crown molding, baseboards, built-in bookshelves, entertainment centers, mudroom storage, wine rooms, coffered ceilings, stair components, window seats, and decorative architectural details. Every piece is custom fabricated to fit your space.

We work with all premium hardwoods including white oak, walnut, maple, cherry, mahogany, and specialty woods. For paint-grade millwork, we use MDF and poplar. Wood selection depends on your design aesthetic, finish type, and budget. We can provide samples for your review.

Fabrication typically takes 4–8 weeks depending on complexity and scope. Installation timeframes vary—a single room of paneling may take 3–5 days, while a full-home millwork package can take 2–4 weeks to install. We coordinate fabrication schedules with your overall project timeline.

Yes. We regularly match existing profiles in historic and older homes. Our millwork partners can replicate any molding profile from a sample piece, and we color-match finishes to blend new work seamlessly with existing millwork.
