About us

CO Lumber Specialties/UFW opened its doors in 1983. Its purpose was to serve as a retail source of lumber, hardwood and moulding for professional woodworkers, builders and hobbyists alike. In the early 90's Unfinished Furniture Warehouse was introduced as an outlet for quality, real wood furniture. Our products consist of Real Wood Furniture for the whole house(No partical board), Graded hardwoods and plywood in over 30 species of wood, kitchen cabinetry and bathroom vanities, 4-lines of in stock kitchen cabinets, moulding & trim (stocked in pine, red oak, hemlock, hickory, maple, cherry, knotty alder, poplar, walnut & MDF), interior and exterior doors, stair parts, and an in house custom wood shop specializing in fireplace mantels, custom furniture, hardwood countertops made in the wood species of your choice, custom corbels and custom cabinetry. We also offer a full service door shop. In September 2001, Rocky Mountain Cabinets Inc., owned by Trevor and Trish Ghee, purchased CO Lumber/UFW with respect for the solid community presence it was, and a vision for what it could become. Our mission is to offer quality wood and wood related products; along with a knowledgeable and helpful sales staff. Our showroom and warehouse are centrally located one block east of Nevada and three blocks north of Fillmore. We offer delivery service anywhere in El Paso, Teller, Pueblo and surrounding counties. We accept Visa, Master Card, Discover, American Express, cash and checks. Contractors and builders have the option for discounts and credit accounts billed monthly. We offer active military discounts and for the younger family members, we have a kid's play area!

Description of Work: C/O offers CUSTOM kitchen and cabinets designs. They have visited my home several times to make sure the cabinets utilize the space effectively and have made sure that my handicap and disabilities are minimized by the function of our new space. Kellee Shafer is amazing as well as ALL of the staff we have met.

The VERY nice lady who sold us the cabinets came to our house and discussed a new layout for our kitchen. We had a third person install them and they worked together. The result is really, really beautiful and much more functional.

Good service, responsive. Great pricing. Some of the lumber was poor quality, but the bulk of what I ordered was solid.

We went in looking for an unfinished dresser for my daughter. The person helping us went above and beyond looking for options for us. We ended up buying a table for our kitchen and two chairs instead. They were really helpful. They also offer a free class on finishing the first Saturday of the month. We will definitely go back.
Description of Work: Ordered some chairs for us that weren't in stock.

We tried staining the night stands that were supposedly maple or birch. When lightl y sanded, an undercoat of paint was revealed. How thin does a veneer have to be for that? We are going to paint them instead. Save yourself some time and money and buy cheap Chinese finished furniture. You will be happier. Many years ago I bought some bar stools there and was very satisfied. I don't know what happened except that I think the store may have changed hands.
Description of Work: We bought two unfinished night stands from CO Lumber.

Bought pre-made cabinets for our basement. Sales person was very helpful, not pushy at all. We comparison shopped at Lowes and Home Depot, but liked the choices at CO Lumber better. Fast turn-around.

We requested a rustic cherry bar top, and gave the measurements to Matt. He estimated it would take 2 - 3 weeks to complete it. We heard from him about two weeks after we ordered and he told us he was waiting for wood that was a little more what we wanted. We were fine with the delay to get what we wanted. When we ordered the top we weren't sure if we would finish it ourselves or if we wanted them to finish it. We decided it would be easier to have them put a finish on it and so they did. The estimate was approximately 2 more weeks. It took 3, but we are very happy with the bar top. We will be asking for a vanity top soon.
Description of Work: Matt made us a bar top out of cherry wood.
