Tennessee
Wood Rules Carpentry is a high-end custom finish carpentry and custom
woodworking studio based in Manchester, Tennessee, serving homeowners,

surrounding areas. Owner and master craftsman Mike Taylor, PMP, brings

Custom Carpentry Built for Your Space
Custom built-ins, hidden features, detailed finish carpentry, and
one-of-a-kind woodworking for homes throughout Middle Tennessee.
Custom work should look like it was always meant to be there.
Our Philosophy
Off-the-shelf doesn't fit every vision. Wood Rules specializes in
custom solutions designed around the actual room, the customer, and
the idea. Walls are not always plumb. Floors are not always level.
Existing homes are rarely perfectly square. The value of custom
craftsmanship is understanding those realities and building something
that visually belongs in the room.
