Custom Woodworking That Tells Your Story
Handcrafted furniture, meaningful gifts, and one-of-a-kind pieces—built with heart, built to last.
Every piece I make at Wertz’s Works of Wood begins with a real conversation and ends with something meant to be kept, used, and passed down. Whether you’re after custom cabinetry, a meaningful gift, or a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture, I build with purpose, care, and attention to every last detail.

My Story
From Small Town Roots to One-of-a-Kind Builds
I grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania, where woodworking was just part of life. My dad had a full workshop in the basement with a band saw, lathe, and radial arm saw, and I was lucky enough to learn by doing. I grew up knowing what quality feels like, and I try to bring that same sense of purpose into every piece I make today.
Now based in New Port Richey, Florida, I work out of a one-man shop where I build every project myself, from start to finish. It’s not about pumping out volume; it’s about getting it right.

What Sets Me Apart
Sustainable Craftsmanship, Personalized Service, and Timeless Design
This isn’t a showroom full of pre-made pieces or a factory. It’s just me, one guy in a workshop, building one project at a time.
I care deeply about the materials I use, the process I follow, and the people I build for. I believe in craftsmanship that honors the wood, design that reflects your vision, and service that makes you feel seen, heard, and appreciated.
When you work with me, you’re not ordering from a catalog. You’re getting something made just for you, something with soul, purpose, and staying power.
My Difference
Every piece is handcrafted by me in my Florida workshop, with no outsourcing and no shortcuts.
I design, build, and finish each project with care, start to finish
Reclaimed and upcycled wood is used with intention, adding character and history
I source sustainable materials whenever possible to build with purpose, not waste
You’ll get clear, honest communication every step of the way, with no pressure and no guesswork.
I take the time to understand your space, your style, and what the piece needs to do
Together, we’ll create something that feels right for your life, functional, lasting, and uniquely yours.
