Description of Work: Old Dixie finished three chests of drawers for us. The quality was reasonable, the price was good. They repaired adequately damage they caused to one chest during their handling.

Response from The Old Dixie Woodshop
Price: Yes the price was good. I under bid this one. No big deal, it happens. Quality: B is harsh. Finish was done with material client started with ( oil based polyurethane) and was properly done with no flaws. Responsiveness and punctuality: Responded to phone call with evaluation immediately with product pickup in a few days. No delay in work in shop. Dry times on multiple coats of finish cannot be rushed. As far as the scratch damage delaying, the piece was retained and fixed while the 3rd piece was being done and delivered at the same time. As far as even mentioning the damage is unnesesary . If I had not told them of the scratch they would not have known. Professionalism: I don't know what to say here. Hard to know what was expected. I was polite, punctual, and communicated adequately.

When I called I left a message, Tommy called me back very promptly. He came out the same day and made two trips to our house to repair a drawer in my wife's dresser that I had broken earlier that morning. Sure, it was a small job, but we sure appreciated the way that Tommy responded and fixed it so quickly. We'll definitely use him the future.
Description of Work: He fixed a drawer that I broke.

The last project was a family desk from the early 1900's. It had been in storage for several years. My husband came from a very large family and the desk had been passed around, given all that the desk was in terrible shape. The wood inlay on the top of the desk was missing and cracked, the very middle of the desk was cracked, it had scrapes and even had a child's name carved into it. I had my doubts it could be saved. Tommy worked on it approximately 1 week and it came back in beautiful shape. I am now enjoying my desk and couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: Tommy Foster Has done multiple jobs for our family, from refinishing antiques after water damage to refinishing wood tables and repairing broken family heirlooms. We would trust him with any kind of wood job. He's very knowledgable about different wood styles and technics. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
