About Matthew Tormey

Matthew Tormey

I am the owner and operator of a one man woodworking shop in Toronto.  I have dedicated my career to bringing my clients' ideas to life whether they are traditional, transitional, modern or completely adventurous.  In doing so I have honed my knowledge and craftsmanship on many levels.  When you hire me you get access to all of my dedication, knowledge and craftsmanship through every stage of the project.

Knowledge

I have a complete understanding of all the suppliers to the woodworking industry in Toronto: where to buy every kind of molding, where to source custom veneered sheet goods, where to find the best hardware, where to get industrial grade finishes, and much more.  I have a thorough understanding of wood, through wood species characteristics to the many characteristics of wood composites.  I have designed and built countless challenging woodworking projects that have stretched the breadth of my knowledge with real life know how.  Although I mostly do custom cabinets, I also have plenty of experience with many other aspects of fine carpentry work like hanging doors, stairs, railings, trim work, paneling, furniture and small woodcraft.  I can use all of these skills to help bring you vision to life.  I have a contact list of electricians, plumbers, stone companies, upholsterers, fireplace companies, etc., to bring your ideas to life as well.

Craftsmanship

I have been honing my carpentry skills since my teen years renovating homes in the East York area with my family.  I pursued an apprenticeship with the local carpenter's union after a earning a bachelor's degree from Queen's University in Kingston (a good way to know I wasn't meant for a desk job).  I started my business in 2004 and have been honing my craft ever since through hard earned real world experience, endless reading and research.  My passion for learning new skills and taking on new challenges hasn't waned.  I always aim to make my projects to last using old world skills blended with new.

Dedication

I stand behind my projects start to finish and for many years beyond.  When you hire me you get passionately crafted work that has been created from start to finish by expert hands solely devoted to making something beautiful come to life.  I am unwaveringly invested in ensuring your project turns out perfectly and that your experience throughout is an enjoyable one.  I abide by one clear rule when doing business: I always do what I say I'm going to do.  Please don't take my word for it though, just read through my many reviews on Homestars and Google to see how my clients feel about their projects and experience.
