Restoration Fine Woodworking & Upholstery

I have many years experience in woodworking, and have found it to be a passion of mine. It began over 15 years ago, when I worked alongside an experienced custom cabinet builder. I had had an interest in the art of luthierie (the construction of stringed musical instruments) for quite some time . I built 5 guitars before I met my wife and had to get a "real job"! The enjoyment I experienced building those instruments has stayed with me, and I still perform repairs on stringed instruments and am hoping to build more guitars in the future! Pictured at the left is an example of two chairs; the one on the left was refinished and re-upholstered, and the one on the right is what it looked like before restoration! While I like to think I know a thing or two about wood, each project is an opportunity to learn and grow. The satisfaction of seeing the finished product is something I look forward to with each job, embracing the challenge of making each repair more invisible than the last. A full list of references is available upon request; it would be my honor to repair, restore, or re-finish your treasured heirloom - call or email for a estimate! *We also refinish and re-face kitchen cabinets!* - Joe Van Notric, Owner
