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!

Don does EXCELLENT work - so happy we found out about Old Virginia Woodworking!!!

We had found a bedroom set whose age and use was clearly showing. Don went to work on it and now it looks brand new! A true Furniture Magician. Very pleasant to deal with.

Don re-finished an old, family blanket chest for us. Some very good suggestions, excellent work, and quick. Couldn't be more pleased, and will likely ask him to do more pieces.

Don did a wonderful job on the two pieces brought to him. The pie safe (pictured) needed some major TLC and Don came through with flying colors. It looks great for a piece from 1720!

I can't recommend Old Virginia Woodworking enough! Quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and excellent customer service! I am renovating an old 1904 schoolhouse, and wanted a telephone niche made, like the old Sears Roebuck houses had. I talked with Don, sent some pictures of what I was looking for, he came up with the design, and the finished product is gorgeous! Just what I was looking for! I am thrilled with the finished niche! Don takes the art of woodworking very seriously, and his work is flawless! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience working with Mr. Don and his team at Old Virginia Woodworking. They refinished a bedroom suite, and the results exceeded our expectations. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and the furniture looks absolutely beautiful—truly like brand new. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and pride in their work really show. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Old Virginia Woodworking to anyone looking for high quality furniture refinishing.
