The result was beautiful, wine racks, space for a wine fridge, racks for glasses and shelves for tumblers. The work was all wood, finished and stained to match the color of the piece, and while he was at it he made some repairs to fix the crown of the piece that had previously been repaired improperly. The best part is that all of the modifications are easily removed should we wish to take the piece back to its original state. Robbie really did a beautiful job on this piece, and we are thrilled to now have our very own custom bar as a show piece in our home.
Description of Work: We had a very old enormous antique Linen Press Armoire that Robbie modified into a bar.

Robbie did a great job. Pieces I thought were totally destroyed were restored. Most had signs of being under water for weeks, but he put them back together and in some cases made some very delicate pieces to replaces parts that couldn't be found in the mucky mess. He also refinished a side table I bought at auction and did a beautiful job. I would recommend him to anyone needing restoration services.
Description of Work: Post Katrina, my mothers' antiques were under "water" for weeks. They were in terrible shape: warped, broken, pieces missing, etc. I asked Robbie to see what he could do. He said he'd give it his best.

I called Robbie who was recommended by someone else I had called that was too busy to take on any more work. Robbie returned my call right away, made an appointment to come give me an estimate and showed up promptly at the time we set. I had a cedar robe which was my great grandmothers and had been moved around several times through the years. The boards of the cedar robe were completely unglued and the whole thing was falling apart. I also had a rocking chair that I wanted to be refinished and I had a specific thought in mind as to how I wanted it done. I explained what I wanted done and Robbie got it completely. He took a look around my house to get an idea of my style and colors and took it from there. He gave me an estimate for both pieces, to which I agreed and he took the pieces that day. I also liked the fact that he offerred pick-up and delivery as I didn't have any means to get the pieces to him. He returned the cedar robe in less than a week. The job he did was just outstanding. The rocking chair took a little longer as there were more steps involved in refurbishing it. It first had to be dipped to remove all of the finish. So when Robbie returned the cedar robe, he brought the chair to see if he was moving in the right direction along the lines of what we had discussed. A few weeks later (as I was in no rush) he returned the chair at a mutually agreeable time, and again he was prompt on delivery of the chair. The chair was done EXACTLY as I had envisioned it would be. Robbie took the time to listen to what I wanted and delivered the job to my every expectation. Robbie is professional, courteous and most importantly, prompt!

Robbie responded to my inquiry call the same day. He arranged to view the furniture at our home within a few days. He provided a reasonable on sight estimate and left with the five pieces. The restoration was completed sooner than promised and the furniture delivered back to my home in less than three weeks. After delivery, I noticed that one section of the barrister case was not hooked in correctly. When notified of the problem, Robbie came back to make it right. He's a local with his own business. I would definitely recommend and use his services again.
