Our Workshop Story

Three decades of passion, craftsmanship, and dedication to creating exceptional woodworking pieces throughout Iowa

Meet Stanley Hyer

My journey in woodworking began in 1995 when I inherited my grandfather's workshop tools in rural Iowa. What started as a hobby quickly became a passion, and by 1998, I had established Hyer Stanley Woodworking Services as a full-time venture.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with families throughout Central Iowa, creating custom pieces that become part of their homes and lives. From intricate furniture pieces to complete kitchen renovations, each project represents a collaboration between traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation.

Today, with over 25 years of experience, I continue to find joy in transforming raw lumber into functional art. Every piece that leaves my workshop carries the promise of quality, durability, and timeless beauty.
