Don did a wonderful job on an old antique Brunswick phonograph cabinet. There was some wooden shelves and supports that needed to be rebuilt and at 100+ years old it needed a little refinishing. The color came out great and it was a joy talking with him about the project.

My antiques were SHATTERED in a recent move. The china cabinet couldn't even "stand." (It had to be placed upside down. So, not only were my antiques unusable, I thought their value was gone. HOWEVER, within a short period of time, understanding, and EXPERTISE my antiques are now home. You cannot even tell anything was ever wrong with them! I HIGHLY recommend OLD VIRGINIA WOODWORKING. Five stars is not enough. I give them 100 stars or even more. Thank you, OLD VIRGINIA WOODWORKING. I cried when I saw their work (and hugged the woodworker). P.S. NEVER use Nationwide Movers or Jackson Movers.

I trusted Don with two very special items in my household. The first being a walnut desk that my dad made in his high school shop class (1970) that had been totally wrecked in a recent move. The movers somehow put about 10 screw holes into the top of the desk, scraping it terribly and losing some piece that allows the drawers to be affixed to the top. Don made it so that you cant even tell there were bug ragged screw holes in top and i think the desk is even more structurally sound than ever! The finish is buttery smooth but Don was sure to leave the markings on the bottom that my dad made while building this piece 50 years ago. The second item was an antique wall clock (c. 1890s) that has been in the family for atleast 3 generations. The clock lived in attics and closets and storage for the last 30 years and was in rough shape. Don made it look period-authentic and fresh, fixing the face and resetting it, hydrating and refinishing the cabinet, cleaning the face and repainting the hands and even ordering and installing a new glass for the face. My dad was incredibly touched to see both pieces and was incredibly impressed with the work. Don is a master at his craft and I will definitely be using his services again!

I took a family piece to him. My buffet turned out beautifully. He is a really nice person. If you have a piece of furniture that needs repair, I highly recommended him. He even gave me direction on how to make a China cabinet that my father made to go with the buffet match in color. I am extremely happy I found this business.

I was very pleased with the results of my repair project. A door broke off of my end table (the pin broke) and Don was able to remove the broken piece of the pin and build new ones. Very happy with the results!
