Services at
Hoffmeyer's Mill
Hoffmeyer's is a small 5 man
operation that primarily does custom millwork including window
sash and storms, interior and exterior doors as well as custom
wood mouldings. We have built many different items over the years
including cedar barrel hot tubs, A cage for a monkey, a dash board
from a '72 Triumph TR6 and even a fir diving board for a swimming
pool!
If its mouldings you are after
, you can fax us a profile or we can fax you our profiles. I can
also send an image thru email if a fax is unavailable. We also
carry both unfinished Soft and Hardwood flooring in a variety
of styles from the 3/8" strip hardwood flooring popular in
the early 20th Century as well as the timeless wide plank Pine
flooring.
Above you can see our historically
correct reproduction true divided lite windows. There are 33 individual
panes of glass in the window. These particular windows are 2 1/4"
thick African Mahogany windows. See more of them in our windows
section.
