How many chairs will you use?
Share the usual number and the occasional maximum. Include the chair width if you already own them.
Custom round tables
A round table can work especially well in a square room or a space with several paths through it. Diameter, chair width, and pedestal clearance are checked together before the size is finalized.
Ask about round tables- Build timing
- Usually 6–10 weeks
Choose the diameter and base together
A round table is planned from the outside in: walking space first, then chair width, then the diameter and pedestal.
Where do people walk?
Measure the open floor area and note the paths people use to enter, sit, and move through the room.
What kind of base do you prefer?
A pedestal changes the available legroom. Send a reference if you already have a shape in mind.
Do you want a painted base?
The top can stay natural while the base is painted, or the whole table can use the same wood and finish.
What the written proposal covers
The proposal confirms the diameter, top, pedestal, finish, delivery, and build window. The quote is tied to those choices so the full scope is clear before a deposit.

Questions about custom round tables
How many people can a round table seat?
The answer depends on the diameter, chair width, and pedestal. Those three measurements are checked together before the size is finalized.
Can a round table have a painted pedestal?
Yes. A natural hardwood top can be paired with a painted maple base, or the full table can use one wood and finish.
Do you deliver round tables across southern Maine?
Yes. Jonathan delivers across southern Maine and brings the piece into the room. Direct delivery and freight are available beyond that; see Delivery.
What woods can I choose for a custom round table?
Walnut, white oak, maple, reclaimed oak, hickory and pine are common choices. Room photos and how you will use the piece help narrow it down.
How long does a custom round table take?
Usually 6 to 10 weeks. Your start and finish dates are confirmed in the written proposal.
