📺✨ Sleek, timeless, and custom. This wall proves that the right trim can turn a blank space into a statement piece.
We transformed this staircase wall with a full wainscoting installation, but don’t let the clean, simple look fool you—this kind of detail takes serious craftsmanship…..We built the entire framework out with 1x6s, then framed each panel with base cap molding for crisp definition. From filling and sanding to achieving a seamless finish, every step is slow and meticulous…..The end result is timeless and elegant, but getting it to look this effortless is a long process of precision and patience.
✨ Primary suite goals ✨
We built out this sleek fireplace buildout with a @touchstonehomeproducts fireplace and finished it in a @portolapaints Roman Clay for a luxe, modern feel. The warm wood hearth and soft clay texture create the perfect balance of cozy + contemporary.
Would you add this vibe to your bedroom?🔥
✨ Bold. Modern. Custom. ✨
We brought this living room to life with built-in cabinetry on both sides of the fireplace, complete with dimmable lighting for the perfect mood. The geometric accent wall ties it all together in a dramatic Tricorn Black finish—proof that details make the design. 🖤🔥

Once a year I like to reintroduce myself to all the new faces around here 👋 I’m Derrick—husband, dad of three, and the foundation of Radford Woodworks (literally in this video 😅). Just like my family piles on top of me, my role is to carry the weight and make sure everything we build—at home and for our clients—is strong, balanced, and built to last. Thanks for following along on our journey—it means a lot that you’re here!

Some habits stick for life. I was raised to always bring the trash cans up — mine or not! We usually arrive between 10–10:30 AM, so if we see yours are empty, we’ll put them back where they belong. Most of the time we’re working out of the garage anyway, so it’s just the right thing to do. 🗑️✨
Nearly 50 individual wood slats spaced. Over 900 feet of caulking (that’s almost one full lap around a 🏃in Track and Field 👀). Finished in Iron Ore by Sherwin-Williams.
It might look simple, but sometimes the most minimal designs are the most demanding. Precision. Patience. Payoff. 💥

This coffered ceiling was all about balance, precision, and bold detail. We started by carefully mapping out the math to divide a three-sided room and added beams on the left and right to create symmetry. The entire ceiling is finished in semi-gloss for a refined sheen, and each box is trimmed with a two-piece inset crown molding that brings unmatched depth—something photos just don’t do justice.
