Welcome back Myrtle!
Each year, for the
last 3 three years, Myrtle has returned to nest on our stoop
light. The warmth she receives next to the stone exterior has
become an incubating ritual for her and the M4L associates.

Millworkforless.com
began in 2001 by a small group
of individuals with over 80 years combined experience in the building materials profession.
Our vision is to bring a
fine offering of quality
millwork products to a discriminating buyer.
Our careers in supplying construction material and millwork spans over
30 years. We are three individuals two of whom grew up in lumber
yard and millwork supply firms. Working as children, albeit
reluctantly at times, as teenagers and as career professionals at the
completion of our formal education. In just that period radical
changes have occurred in building regulations and practices.
It was disappointing as the years passed to see the construction of
homeowners dreams being encased with artificial product saturated with
architectural flaws and compromises. Just in the last 10 to 12
years a surge in the use of non-wood products, especially in doors and
windows, has been staggering.
The
beauty, durability and flexibility of wood millwork is simply not attainable with synthetic resins, pvc, steel and fiberglass.
Clearly, we felt a loss as the texture,
character and even aroma of natures wood was disappearing from our
modern dwellings. We felt compelled to exclusively offer and
provide high quality millwork products as we are inspired to infuse the
product, service and value into fine millwork to insure the position of
fine millwork in modern construction.. We wanted to make this our only
business and not just a sideline offering to other commodity building
materials. Our vision was that we would provide hassle free
expertise and personalized products which had been relegated to obscure,
high priced options from other industry suppliers.

Our passion
is in
providing unique,
warm and creative
wood entry systems
and other select
millwork products.
It is the baseline
for all the services
and selections we offer. |
Collectively, each of us at Millworkforless
has an appreciation for nature and our environment. In everything
we do, we ensure that both ourselves and our suppliers use our resources
responsibly and respectfully.
As the son of a forester, our third
partner grew up learning and practicing good forestry principles.
For seasonal income, he and his brother were trained and employed by the
state of Virginia to fight forest fires. As reforestation has been
aggressively practiced since World War II, there is no more
environmentally friendly choice than wood for construction for our
earth.
Our custom products are
fabricated exclusively in the United States and Canada.
Our passion is to educate our clients on the
lasting value of these beautiful products. We want to assist each
customer in finding the door or millwork item that graces their
residence or structure with the uniqueness and texture that supports the
individuality of each of our customers. In doing so, we strive to
provide our products and services at surprising value. A low price
is not our goal, but, rather, we strive to provide a robust product for
a fair price.
No other product is as renewable
and recyclable as wood.
Our endless efforts to improve our product and service offerings are only enhanced by the contributions our customers make. We attempt to offer a relaxed shopping experience and only implement polices and practices that insure our
customers and company the least chance for loss in order that we keep our operating costs low and our value offering high. When a transaction error or quality issue does arise, we have proven to act quickly and always in the interest of our customer to minimize any potential inconvenience.
Thank your for taking time to visit our site. We are confident that you will be impressed with our efforts, but , we implore you to offer feedback when you feel you could help us increase our value to our customer.
Millworkforless manages all
product support internally.
Relationships for any business should be a principle in a company’s customer/ supplier chain of transactions. Respect for each other is essential for happiness. Without happiness, it is assured that all else will result in emptiness, and, thus not worth doing. In any relationship or transaction,
there is no place for a win/lose mentality. To win is create a loser. Equity will find itself and a winner will only become the prey of the loser. We value our customers of course, but we value the uplifting of our suppliers and value their business practices and requirements to be strong and viable. Over the years
of our experience, we noticed many of the large entities supplying construction products have become controlling of their suppliers. In an attempt to offer their customers a vast selection of products in many different price points and a quality of minimal acceptability, these retailers frequently dispense of a
wonderful supplier only to accept the next lowest price.
Growing up in the building material industry, we each have encountered some of the best and some of the not as great suppliers. We have carefully aligned our selves with
companies that share are values in business and community. They value our willingness to make a unique commitment in only supplying their product opposed to offering a fray of competitive products. In return, we feel they offer us top tier support, service and pricing. We only purchase from manufacturers, never
wholesalers, reps or agents. While we know each of these entities serve important functions for their chosen clients, it is expertise we do not require and thus have no need to pay for and incur added costs for our clients.
Retail practices today invariably leave
the end user looking to a manufacturer for support when things go awry.
Millworkforless manages all
product support internally. We do not turn our customers over to a
manufacturer after the sale. It is our role to support you, the
customer, and expedite a solution to all of your needs.
Our suppliers appreciate our
efforts and ability and again, look at us an extremely low cost client
and cater to us accordingly. These practices collectively afford
us the buying power of most any Goliath and we feel our clients and our
suppliers are the beneficiary.
