Original Review was posted on 11/10/15 (my old yelp account) I first contacted Bob in 2006, but at that time I did not have the money for the built in. Nine years later today, my husband & I had decided to finally get our tv niche done. I lost Bob's contact & I wasn't sure if he was still in the business. I called around & got five quotes. I had a particular look in mind, but the problem was our large ornate mantel w/ no gap in-between the mantel & the tv opening. All of the vendors that came out & gave a bid just wanted to go around the mantel. I wasn't happy with all of the proposals & this why I know God works in a mysterious way. I remembered contacting Bob years ago & fell in love with his work through his website. I did not remember his company name, but I remembered that his website had the Christian fish symbol & Temecula location, so I searched the internet for days & was able to find him. I contacted Bob & right away he answered the phone. He was so easy to talk to & explained what needed to be done with my tv niche & the mantel. He came over, measured & gave an honest quote. He answered my never ending questions for weeks & was able to build my beautiful niche. I knew from the beginning that he was going to do an amazing job, so instead of keeping my ornate mantel I tore it out. In addition to my tv niche I asked Bob to build me a new mantel to match. Both turned out BEAUTIFUL! We LOVE our new tv niche & mantel! Thanks God I waited & was able to find Bob. Him & Sherry are truly amazing people & I am so glad I got to meet them. God bless you both! If you want beautiful work, attention to details & good price...Bob is your guy. read more

TV Builtins - 2years later my tv niche still looks AMAZING! - Cabinetry Near Me

I had wanted a TV media center built in for years. I finally decided to get one installed. I found Bob online and immediately loved every picture of his work. I immediately emailed Bob and within an hr had a response. Bob came out and measured everything, and gave us a quote and I put the down payment for my new media center right then and there. Fast forward to install day, and I got to meet his amazing daughter and son in law who installed my unit. It looks amazing!! I cannot believe how much it changed the living room, it looks stunning. I highly recommend Bob and his family, you cannot find anyone else out there who will do a better job and deliver better customer service. I am so happy I found them, thank you so much for all your hard work. I love it! read more

TV Builtins - Cabinetry Near Me

After moving into our home a year ago, one of the first things my wife and I started to plan for was a family room update. Apparently the drywall holes in the wall were in-style when the home was built in 2001, but we wanted to change this look right away! After deciding what we wanted to do, I contacted Bob and he responded within hours. Bob was always on time, his pricing was fair, and he built exactly what we were hoping for. As you can see from the before and after photos, both built-ins look beautiful and are the exact update this house needed! read more

Update: Received the refund today for my deposit. Still cannot recommend Bob as his customer service is horrible. Instead of owning that he was late to the appointment, he threw a fit and took my project off the schedule (without advising me!). read more

We LOVE our builtin from Bob! (and Sherry) From meeting and taking measurements to finished product was just weeks. Totally recommended Bob's awesome custom craftsmanship! Great people too! Wished I would have done this 6 years ago when we bought our house. If you've been putting off a builtin give TV Builtins a call...you won't regret it! read more

Fantastic craftsmanship.... Bob built and installed a beautiful three section cabinet for our living room that looks like it came with the house when it was built only better. The quality of the work and material is top notch and we highly recommend TV Builtins to anyone that is looking for cabinetry work for their home read more

My wife and I decided to have built in shelving systems installed in our home. We looked at several wood work vendors before selecting Bob from Home Wood Work. We found him on a random internet search. We were impressed with his samples work in photos and his straight talk was refreshing. Other vendors made wild promises and unrealistic claims. Bob explained that he had never done a shelf system exactly like were asking him to perform. We discussed possible limitations and options to insure he was working within his skill level. He took a spare piece of our pre existing wood to match colors, took measurements, and left us with a price quote. We liked him enough felt comfortable with him and gave him a 50% cash deposit on the spot and made an agreement. Bob had quoted us a price and a time estimate of about 6 weeks, but we were pleasantly surprised to find him e-mailing us within a three weeks. We set a date to have our shelves installed and agreed to a Saturday. Just as when Bob came to provide an estimate he was on time. Not just arriving at "about" 8:30 but knocking on our door at EXACTLY 8:30...precise as a Swiss timepiece. He and his lovely wife set out installing our shelves over the next several hours. I left to both allow them to work distraction free and preserve the surprise factor when I saw the finished product. When Bob let me know he was finished I came downstairs and was truly amazed. The finished product was much much better than we expected and Bob had promised. To stay he was humble in his initial estimate would be an understatement. Bob made it sound as if he was uncertain if he could deliver exactly what we were asking for because it was not a common request but I'll tell you right now it was BETTER than what we had asked for. His measurements were amazingly accurate and a flawless fit. The finish was nice. The overall product was without flaw that I could find. Bob is truly a master of his craft but I think he is humble enough to not tell you that himself. Since then several friends have already turned to Bob and voiced their regret at having hired a cheaper builder, or even worse, the family member or "friend of a friend" rather than the quality professional like we chose to. As I said before, we spoke to a few builders and for one reason or another always felt uneasy. We are very very glad we followed our gut and waited until we found the right man for the job. I cannot recommend Home Wood Work enough. Feel free to message me and I'll answer any questions for you or send you pictures of our shelves. He posted his own pictures on his website under "Chris & Cynthia". Rest assured if you hire Bob you will be pleased with the end result. read more

Bob and his family were great!!! We were a little high maintenance, but they communicated with us throughout the whole process. We love our built it, it's changed the whole look of our living room... thank you!!!! read more

I recently hired Bob at HomeWoodWork to install a custom built-in to fit the niche we had in our living room wall. Upon my initial inquiry, Bob responded with a VERY detailed email answering all of my questions within a few hours. He was able to come and do a free estimate a few days later and get started on the project. He was very detailed and thorough. He came on time, every time he came to my house (e.g. 12 noon was exactly 12 noon). He had the project done when he said he was going to, which was very quick in my opinion. He and his wife run the business together and she comes and helps with installation and is also very nice to work with. I absolutely LOVE my new built-ins. They are beautiful and made of quality materials (my father is in construction himself and I had him review the email Bob sent listing the materials they use - he approved, impressive in itself!) The doors on the cabinet part of the built-ins come with very nice quality hinges. A few days after the installation I realized the cabinet doors were slightly unlevel (very slightly like 1/4 of an inch) and I am borderline OCD so I texted Bob about how to fix them and he offered to come down and make them perfect for me....he lives/works in Temecula and he came down to Carlsbad 2 days before Thanksgiving to make them perfect! And the hinges are adjustable so I could've done it myself but I didn't have to. All in all, coming from a perfectionist, Bob at Home Wood Work is reliable, has great customer service and produces beautiful work. Thank you Bob! read more

I bought a brand new home in Temecula with an empty niche and found Bob online to do a built in. His price was way less than any other comparable company and the quality was great. He kept to the timeline, no cost changes and it looks great. I appreciate his design idea to allow for airflow so my components can "breathe" and not overheat. I would definitely use him again. read more

We originally had a built in done by Bob in our family room. It was a small space for a large tv. Bob was able to manipulate the built in space into looking bigger by adding additional moldings on the side walls. We are beyond happy with the results. Everything was on time, as promised. The measurements were very precise and we had no flaws at all. We eventually had Bob build us another built in for the master bedroom. Again, true craftsmanship and beautiful results. We get many compliments on them. Bob and his wife are such nice people and we really enjoyed doing business with them. read more

We love our new built in entertainment center. Excellent craftsmanship and detailing. Delivered on time and carefully installed. Really friendly down-to-earth people. Gave me a military discount. read more

Bob and Sherry were so wonderful to work with! We are VERY happy with our built in. Would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone looking for quality attention to detail work... read more

I am very behind in writing this review, but it is much deserved so I just had to make sure I put it up. If your looking to have custom built ins in your home look no further. You cant go wrong with Bob and his team. They are the true definition of professionals. I had called numerous companies for quotes before finding Bob on Yelp. Other companies were rude and condescending about our budget and just when my husband and I were about to give up and put the project on hold I called Bob. His quote was extremely reasonable and affordable for a very large job. I knew he was the right person for the job from the first phone call. He was polite and professional. He said he'd get a quote to me by the next day, but if I recall correctly I believe he sent it that evening which surprised me and said a lot and told me he was dedicated to the job. We made an appointment for him to come to our home to view the space and take measurements. He worked with us to come up with the perfect design for our home and listened to our needs and wants. He was there not only on time, but I think even a few minutes early. On the day of installation, his crew was ready on time and here to get started. It took them mostly the day to complete since it was a big job, however they did it quickly and efficiently and his family is so lovely to talk with the time passed by quickly. We could not be more pleased with his work and we get tons of compliments from everyone who comes over. I could go on and on, but the bottom line is I can not recommend him highly enough!
