General Questions

Historically our lead time has ranged from 3 to 4 months.

To know what our lead time is currently, please contact us, or call Richard at (717) 268-9399.

This depends on where you are located. We deliver furniture ourselves in our local market (South Central PA, Philly, and DC metro areas). We are based in Shermans Dale, PA, 30 minutes northwest of Harrisburg.

You can also come pickup your piece at our shop once complete.

For orders outside of the mid Atlantic region, delivery is completed via either a white glove carrier or freight shipping.

All furniture orders require a 65% down payment to get into our order que. The remainder is due prior to delivery.

If paying via check, please make payable to “Hoffer Woodworking LLC”

Not usually given the space they would take up in the shop.

But we do have the following:

  • Lots of wood samples showing different species and finish options
  • Different edge profiles
  • Smaller items such as end tables and coffee tables which we display at events
  • You can see a list of all pre made furniture we currently have available here

All tables are built to order.

Yes! It’s often a lot of fun for current customers to stop by and take a look as their table is being made.

We also send photo updates along the way as your piece is being made.

It varies depending on size, style, and other projects in work, but it usually takes around one month. This is purely an estimate.

  • Week 1: lumber selection and acclimation, initial surfacing component construction, initial dimensioning and surfacing, final dimensioning, assembly and final surfacing.
  • Week 2: Component construction, final surfacing, initial dimensioning, final dimensioning, assembly and final surfacing.
  • Week 3: finish application (often requires multiple coats) and cure-time (the table is finished, but we have to wait for the topcoat to fully harden).
  • Week 4: cure time continued (varies depending on type of finish but is typically 7-10 days).

Every piece we make is made to order. That means you choose the size, style and color. Keep in mind that every piece of wood is different! Every board will take finish slightly differently, please understand this before ordering with us. It is not something we have control over.

ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
