Drew does a nice job on his projects and is highly committed to his customers. He brought our…read moremid-century Broyhill Sculptra china cabinet back to life and did so with plenty of communication about our preferences on finishes and issues encountered, etc. Overall we're happy with the result. He is a very knowledgable and friendly guy. I was encouraged by his strong interest in the history of our piece and how it may have been constructed or refinished in the past. Once he started in on the refinishing, his work was very thorough. Since the cabinet has glass doors and displays dishes, he needed to sand and refinish the inside shelves and walls as well as the outside, and he completely took apart the door frames, installed new glass, and shored up the hardware. Being an older piece, the doors had some challenges with closing and always seemed a bit flimsy before the job, but after Drew's work they feel much more robust (in addition to looking great). I'm sure that working with these fragile doors was challenging and appreciate the care Drew took to get them and the inside finishes right. When we got to the finishing stage, Drew found a good solution for testing finishes in an area of the piece that wasn't visible and sent several pictures to help us preview and select the final finish. He made several helpful suggestions along the way about which finishes might look best. In the interest of full transparency, Drew quoted our job at 4-9 weeks and $1400 (we had another refinisher quote us the same price but with extra for delivery fees, so Drew's quote seemed fair). He turned the piece around in about 8 weeks and at the quoted price. He seems to have quite a few customers and due to other project obligations, he probably didn't start in earnest on our job until about week 6, so keep in mind that depending on conditions your project could end up on the long end of his range. This wasn't an issue for us, though, as Drew was very responsive and gave us regular updates on project and expected delivery timeline. Lastly, I think Drew's delivery methods could be improved a bit - transport is on a trailer that looks susceptible to some movement and bumpiness. One of our glass doors has a small and not very noticeable scratch that I'm guessing happened at some point in transit. Goes with the territory and certainly doesn't change our overall positive view of Drew's business, but an area where an upgrade may be warranted in the future.

Drew is truly an artist. He repaired a family heirloom chest in late 2022 and did beautiful work…read more It was a difficult project as he had to fabricate missing parts and blend them into the existing patina (the patina mattered to me). Moreover, he came to our home to pick up and drop off the piece, which was unexpected and most appreciated. And, he communicated regularly throughout the process with photos, updates on what he found etc. Fairly priced, extremely professional and a rare find. You cannot go wrong with Drew.

The quote was a little higher than the store who we found in Sterling, but, ya know - #HerndonStrong. A little over $200 and we'd have it back in a week, they said. So we gave it a shot. Color me underwhelmed. One week passes, nary a peep from the owners. E-mails sent and phone calls unreturned. Two weeks, nothing. Three weeks passed amidst multiple phone calls from us and it is finally complete. I go in to pick it up, the owner, Eddie--who doesn't feel a need to wear a mask when interacting with customers during the pandemic--shrugs and says "we put it aside and forgot about it." I mean, points for honesty, but seriously? I ask his brother Jeff (masked and helped with the door, thank you!), who rings me up if we were going to be paying the full freight despite it being three weeks late, and Eddie chimes in "I told you what happened." I get it that it was a small order, all things concerned, and concede that the relatively simple order appears to have been well done, but the lack of communication about tardiness and the apathy for being that late are deal-breakers. Small jobs matter too, and when we have our big job coming, I won't be back.
