How do you know if a contractor is actually qualified?

A low price doesn't tell you much. It doesn't tell you if they're licensed, if they're insured, or who's actually going to show up at your house.

Before you hire anyone, check these five things:

βœ”οΈ Verify their license (California: search CSLB.ca.gov)
βœ”οΈ Ask for proof of insurance
βœ”οΈ Look at projects similar to yours β€” not just their best work
βœ”οΈ Find out who will actually be doing the work
βœ”οΈ Get a detailed written estimate before anything starts

That fourth one gets skipped the most.

Some companies sub out everything. Others do the core work themselves and bring in licensed trades β€” electrical, plumbing β€” for the parts that require it.

At Holland & Sons, every piece of carpentry and millwork is built and installed by us. When a project needs licensed electrical or plumbing, we bring in people we trust. You'll always know who's in your home and why.

Most people see a floating shelf.

Brian sees six opportunities to ruin a perfectly good board.

Every custom miter fold starts the same way: measure twice, stare at it for a while, cut once, then hope your math was better than your coffee.

This timelapse shows the process behind one of our custom miter-fold shelves. The goal is simple: make solid wood look thick, clean, and seamless without exposing end grain.

The reality?

Precise cuts. Careful glue-up. Lots of clamps. And enough patience to make most people walk away halfway through.

These are the details nobody notices when the project is finished.

They're also the reason the finished product looks right.

What's your guess?

How long do you think it took Brian to build this one shelf?

Comment TIME and we'll tell you if you're close.

This built-in cost $12,992.

Not because we added more cabinets.

Because we removed almost everything that wasn't working.

The homeowner had a large entertainment center that dominated the room. Honey-stained wood, heavy trim details, oversized crown, and a TV tucked inside a box built for a different era.

The structure itself wasn't failing. It just didn't fit the way she wanted the room to feel anymore.

So we pulled it out and started over.

The Brewster Project ended up with:

β€’ Four-door cabinetry finished in Sage
β€’ Vertical shiplap in White Flour
β€’ Stain-grade cherry floating shelves finished in Chocolate Rubio Monocoat
β€’ A properly mounted TV centered within the design
β€’ Original puck lights repurposed and recessed into the top shelf for warm display lighting

One of my favorite details is that we reused parts of the original installation instead of throwing everything away. Those puck lights found a new home and ended up looking like they were designed for the space from the beginning.

Projects like this typically run between $7,800–$15,000+ depending on wall size, materials, and finish selections.

If this wall lived in your house, what would you display on those shelves?

"How much does a custom entertainment wall cost?"
It's one of the questions we hear most β€” so here's a real project with real numbers.
This homeowner's original built-in was large, ornate, and finished in honey oak that no longer fit the rest of the home. More than the look, it wasn't working for the way the family actually used the room. She wanted cleaner lines, better storage, and a TV layout that made sense.
This build came in at $12,992.
The new wall includes stain-grade cherry floating shelves finished in Chocolate Rubio Monocoat, four-door cabinetry in Sage, and vertical shiplap finished in White Flour. We also remounted the TV in a better position β€” which opened up display space and gave the room a focal point that actually works.
For context: projects like this typically run $7,800–$15,000+ depending on wall size, materials, storage needs, and finish selections.
If you're thinking about replacing an outdated entertainment center, comment WALL or send us a message and we'll walk you through the process.

Most homeowners aren't just hiring someone to build a shelf or remodel a room.

They're trusting someone with their home, their budget, and the place their family spends their time.

So the first question worth asking any contractor is simple: Who's actually doing the work?

At Holland & Sons, everything is built in our own shop and installed by our own hands. No subcontractors. No handoffs. No strangers in your house you've never met.

We've been in Inland Empire homes since 1991 β€” custom built-ins, fireplace walls, coffered ceilings, kitchen and bath remodels, finish carpentry. Every project, same goal: listen carefully, build it right, and make sure the space works for the people actually living in it.

When it's done right, your home just works better. The storage makes sense. The room fits the way your family actually lives.

Got a project in mind? Send us a message β€” we'd love to talk about your home.

Before anything gets installed in your home, it starts here.

Wyatt and Waylon breaking down maple in the shop checking every dimension, running every piece through before it ever touches a wall. Most homeowners only see the finished project. The hours before that are where the fit, the finish, and the durability actually get decided.

Everything Holland & Sons builds gets made in our own shop and installed by our own hands. No subcontractors. No shortcuts. Brian's been doing it this way for 35 years and now his sons are learning it the same way he did.
Follow along to see where this maple ends up.

The Brewster Project started with a built-in that had seen better days heavy, ornate, honey-stained. It wasn't bad work. It just wasn't her anymore.
So we pulled it out and started over.

This one came in at $12,992. Projects like this typically run $7,800–$15,000+ depending on materials, wall size, and finish level.

The Brewster build got stain-grade cherry floating shelves in Chocolate Rubio Monocoat, four-door cabinetry in Sage, vertical shiplap in White Flour, and a TV finally mounted where it belonged. We even repurposed her original puck lights recessed into the top shelf for warm downlight over the display surface.

She's also a baseball fan. Every evening before we packed up, we put her TV back on a temporary cabinet so she didn't miss a game. She watched every inning. We finished the job. That's just how it should work.

Carrol had a bonus room that was supposed to be a home office. Open to the hallway, no door, no privacy β€” just a nice idea that never quite worked.
And a pantry that had been open shelving since the day they moved in. Functional enough. But every time you walked past the kitchen, you noticed it didn't belong.
Two rooms. Two problems that had probably been on the list for a while.
A custom transom door closed off the bonus room β€” real walls, real privacy, natural light still coming through. Then the pantry got cabinet faces and doors built to match the kitchen exactly, painted two-tone so it looks like it was always part of the plan.
Carrol left us five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
That's the one that sticks β€” when something that's bothered a homeowner for years just... disappears.

Every home has hidden potential β€” sometimes it’s just waiting for the right vision to bring it to life.

What started as an empty space under the stairs became custom built-in storage designed to add purpose, function, and value to this home.

Projects like this aren’t just about building cabinets.
They’re about seeing what others overlook and turning unused space into something meaningful for the family who lives there.

That’s the difference craftsmanship makes. πŸ”¨
