Our Story at Sterling Woodworks, Local Woodworking in Waco.

Sterling Woodworks was founded by Blake Loree as a one-man shop when he was just 19, fresh out of high school and with a burgeoning passion for woodworking. Initially working as an apprentice in a local shop renowned for its exquisite custom furniture and extensive use of hand tools, Blake soon began taking on both small commissions and extensive home renovation projects. By 2020, he shifted his focus towards transforming Sterling Woodworks into a premier cabinet shop, known for producing top-quality cabinets. This pivot has spurred rapid growth, enabling the company to offer high-end custom built-ins and furniture to a broad clientele across Central Texas, including Dallas, Austin, and Houston. Operating from a 3,500 square-foot cabinet shop on his rural property, where he lives with his wife and two children, Blake has realized his dream of supporting his family through his home-based business. Blake shares, "Nothing makes me happier than seeing my wife and kids throughout the workday."
