How We Think About Service Area
We don't draw a hard boundary around who we'll work with — the towns and cities above are simply where most of our current customers are based, reflecting 40 years of relationships built out from East Providence. If you're further out in Rhode Island or Massachusetts, distance from the shop mainly affects whether pickup makes sense versus shipping, not whether we can do the work. For larger or recurring orders, shipping cost is usually a small fraction of the total order value, so it rarely changes the practical answer either way.
