I needed to have stepsavers put on the tips of my shoes I stopped by several times but they were…read morenot available so I ended up coming back and bringing a pair of boots that needed to be restored that are my favorite I had them for at least 10 years and I hadn't worn them because the hill was messed up. The leather on the heal was dented and nicked up and so I just haven't worn them and i did not want to get rid of them. I decided to bring them in to see if they could be restored and low and behold the gentleman behind the counter told me that he could replace the leather on the heels and Shine the boots up and restore them. They look amazing when I pick them up I couldn't belive how nice they looked. I was also able when I came back to get the step savers for the tips of my new shoes.The shoes are pointy and when I'm walking it was scraping off the front of the shoe where the tip was so I wanted to add step Savers to preserve the tips of the shoes. The prices were very reasonable he didn't overcharge me in fact he charged me a few dollars less than what he originally told me when I came in to get the tips put on the shoes. This will definitely be my go-to place in the future when I need shoes repaired or restored. There are not many cobblers in the area so when I found this one I was happy. Definitely if you're looking for someone to restore repair fix your shoes and I believe they fix other things. While picking up my shoes a gentleman came in with a suitcase and he wanted some straps replaced on it and they were able to do that as well. So definitely check them out if you're looking for a cobbler.

It took them exactly 1 week to do everything and I went back exactly a week later, like they told me to do, and without even texting or calling the boots were ready and fixed! The work was seamless and they returned the boots in amazing shape and care. I will definitely be returning. I definitely recommend.

I reached out to Wood Work Arts to repair an antique vanity I got from my mom when she past a few…read moremonths ago. It is over 50 years old and definitely needed some work. He came over to my house to look at the furniture and provided me with a quote that seemed fair. We arranged a date and time for furniture pick up and a time frame for completion, which was about three weeks or so. When he called to tell me that my vanity was ready, I was excited. His team delivered my furniture and placed it wherever I wanted them to which was in my bedroom upstairs. The vanity looked so beautiful! He even cleaned up the inside and replaced the antique mirror to model the original. I am so pleased with the overall service and professionalism of this organization. He has obviously been in this business a very long time and his work is exceptional.

I reached out to Wood Works Arts, and he came over, quoted me a great price, and took the table with him. I got a call that it was finished much faster than expected, and they brought it back to me. And it is BEAUTIFUL, I was stunned and excited by how perfect they made it. I've had it back for an hour and have already recommended Wood Work Arts to friends, I would definitely come back if I needed more work done, and I certainly recommend them to you.

You sort of have to squeeze your car in whatever space you can find and then kind of go on a hunt to find the owner (smiles). I'd suggest calling first and letting him know when you'll be there so you might catch him better. I got a quote from Toyota to replace my armrest at over $1,000; I bought a replacement from eBay, took it in and he put took off the armrest and two days later I came in to pick it up--whole process to put it on took probably 10 minutes--better than new (he added extra padding) and charged me $55--couldn't be happier and happy to spread the word!

Thank you Seleh for doing such an incredible job altering my wedding dress! Seleh completed a…read morecomplicated alteration that involved removing mesh covering most of the top half of the dress. Before undertaking the work, Seleh ran through some of the considerations, including the fact that the mesh provided structural support that he would need to compensate for around the straps. He finished the dress on time and the removed mesh looked flawless. He completed a second round of alterations after my first fitting. Then, a week or two after I took the dress home (and nine days before my wedding), I panicked about the fit of the bodice and the straps and left a slightly frantic voicemail for Seleh. To his immense credit, he called me back in ten minutes to calmly and gently ask me what was wrong and how he could fix it. He didn't make me feel crazy or unreasonable and made a quick appointment for me a couple of days later. He turned around this last round of alterations in a couple days -- a complex addition of fabric under the dress straps to reduce itchiness and some alterations to the bodice -- and the dress was perfect after that. His work on the straps was particularly impressive because the added fabric was completely invisible despite the fact that the straps were irregularly shaped, ornate, and lace. All in all, Seleh gets top marks for skill, timeliness, and emotional sensitivity (all a must when altering wedding dresses). Thank you again, Seleh!
