Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a manufacturer or a sales company?

We are a manufacturer whose products are made right here in the U.S. Our rationale is as follows. Manufacturers, typically stable corporations, offer reliable warranty and repair services. In contrast, sales companies, often home-based, may lack resources for such services and depend on manufacturers whose names may not be on the contract. Manufacturers maintain records across generations, ensuring continued support, while sales companies may close with the founder’s retirement, leaving churches without clear contact for future needs.

How good is your warranty?

To answer this, we challenge you to ask for a reference of someone who has encountered an issue. This is a litmus test for how well a company handles warranties and overall customer service. As problems will inevitably arise, we pride ourselves on providing helpful and fair warranties.

How long have you been in business?

Imperial Woodworks, Inc. has been in continuous operation since 1960. After all, experience is the best teacher. 

Are Imperial pews solid wood or plywood and solid wood or MDF?

All of the above. Imperial Woodworks, Inc. tailors the product to meet the expectations of the customer. We’d love to provide expert guidance about what type of pew would work best in any particular situation.

Does Imperial Woodworks, Inc. offer woods other than Red Oak?

Yes! Imperial Woodworks, Inc. offers pews made in many wood species.

Are factory tours available for potential buyers?

Factory visits are not just available but encouraged. We want to know our customers just like you want to know who is manufacturing your church furniture.

Are on-site consultations available nationally with factory representatives? 

Yes! Consultations are free of charge and free of obligation. In fact, Imperial Woodworks, Inc. maintains a presence throughout the United States, in most Canadian Provinces, Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean. Shipments are also made routinely to Mexico and other South and Central American countries. In-house Spanish speakers are available if needed.

Can documentation be made of how well Imperial Woodworks, Inc. is run?

Yes, absolutely. The church can have a Dunn & Bradstreet Report done for any church furniture company. This provides a company history and statement of the financial well-being of the company, as well as other important information that should be known prior to a large investment. Normally the church’s banker or insurance agency will gladly assist with the report.

How far in advance of delivery can church furniture be purchased?

Normal production time for pews is 90 to 120 days from the time the contract is signed. Churches wanting to lock in a price during these uncertain financial times can do so. At Imperial Woodworks, Inc. when a contract is signed and the down payment made, the price is guaranteed to not change for 12 months. Pulpit furniture orders are completed within 10-12 weeks in most cases. Custom furniture, which is always welcome, usually takes a little longer.
