About MJM Woodworks
Michael Moore, founder of MJM woodworks & licensed general contractor
Michael began woodworking more than 45 years ago when he couldn’t find furniture that fit the space or needs of his first home. He started building his own pieces, combining the dimensions, features, and functionality he had been unable to find in stores. As friends and family began asking him to create custom pieces for their homes, those early projects grew into decades of woodworking experience.
Much of Michael’s early work involved restoring New York City brownstones and other homes dating to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Recreating original mantels, cabinetry, mouldings, and other architectural details gave him a strong understanding of traditional construction and proportion, as well as how to introduce modern storage and functionality without compromising the character of an older home.
Serving Monmouth County, NJ
Today, Michael brings that experience to MJM Woodworks, working directly with homeowners to design, build, and install custom furniture, cabinetry, built-ins, and architectural woodwork. A licensed New Jersey contractor, he is based in Colts Neck and works with clients throughout Monmouth County.

For built-in projects and other pieces requiring installation, MJM completes the final fit and installation in your home so the finished work looks intentional within the space. From the first measurements to the last detail, you're working with the same craftsman responsible for bringing the project to life.

Once the design is finalized, Michael builds your project specifically for you. Rather than adapting a standard product to your space, each piece is made according to the approved design, with attention given to material, construction, proportion, and finish throughout the process.

Detailed drawings and renderings help you see how the project will come together before the build begins, giving you an opportunity to refine the design and make sure the important details have been considered.

Michael works with you to understand the space, what you need from it, and what you envision for the finished piece. Measurements, proportions, storage requirements, architectural details, and inspiration are translated into a custom design.
