About Ron Grandee Custom Wood & Glass

What began as a one-man workshop has grown into one of South Texas’ most respected custom woodcraft studios. Founder Ron Grandee built his first set of antique window frames in the early 1970s. Since then, his reputation for precision craftsmanship and integrity has earned him commissions from courthouses, churches, yacht builders, and private estate owners throughout Texas.



Our team works with a focused mission: to preserve the integrity and elegance of architectural spaces through detailed, durable, and beautiful woodwork. Whether replicating 19th-century moldings or crafting entirely new church altars, every project is approached with a blend of artistry and functionality. We blend historic knowledge with modern tools to create works that last generations.

Window Arches & Architectural Millwork

Curved window arches, elliptical frames, and detailed trim require advanced tooling and artisan-level skill. Using steam-bending and custom jigs, we replicate original profiles and build brand-new installations that look like they’ve always belonged.
