Knoxville & East Tennessee

Craft Cabinetry & Millwork

Cabinetry developed in close relationship with the architecture of your home—with attention to proportion, material, and the way each space is used.

We collaborate with homeowners, designers, and architects, carrying the details from the first drawings through fabrication, finishing, and installation. Designed and built in our East Tennessee shop.

"Chaser & Burk has been great to work with for both our custom cabinetry and furniture! They make the creative process fun and easy and provide full service renderings so you can see your ideas come to life. They have been flexible to work around our other contractors and needs during the renovation process and have excellent attention to detail when it comes to install and overall finished product. I get compliments on all of my custom pieces constantly and have recommended them to many friends and family members. There is no one like them in Knoxville!"

About Chaser & Burk

Jacob Burkhalter started Chaser & Burk in 2016 after falling in love with woodworking and spending years learning the craft from the ground up. What started as custom furniture has grown into a full-service cabinet and millwork shop — but the approach hasn't changed. When you work with us, you're working directly with the people who are designing and building your project.
