We are craftspeople
rooted in tradition
Our History
Traditional Woodworks was founded in 1986 by Michael Pouliotte, a craftsman with a background in boatbuilding—an industry where precision, durability, and problem-solving are essential. That foundation laid the groundwork for a woodworking company built on a deep respect for traditional techniques.
As Mike transitions to new endeavors, he has entrusted the company to Brooks Hausser, a fellow craftsman with a boatbuilding background. Now serving as president, Brooks and his partners remain dedicated to the same values that built Traditional Woodworks— integrity and respect for the craft.
