Provided by YP.comTim is simply the greatest wood craftsman I have ever met. My wife and I tested his skills by giving him a wood medical chest from the 1880s that had belonged to my great-grandfather who was the Surgeon General of New Jersey. The top was cracked in three places, the bottom was virtually destroyed, and the insides were a mess. You need to understand that when you give Tim something that is this destroyed, he cannot fix it overnight; in fact, it took him several months. But perfection is worth the wait. The piece is superb. We then gave him several more antique furniture pieces from the 1880s, gave him several months, or longer, to finish each project, and you will be seeing these pieces on his website. Our favorite was a custom-made shoe shine kit from the 1800s that was an absolute wreck. We gave Tim our price range to fix it, we gave him four months to do it, and it is absolutely superb. We cannot be more pleased. We will be inheriting a few more pieces in the future, including a very bashed up secretary from the 1750s, and we know right where we are taking it. This is not one of those fake reviews written by a relative, or the owner. My name is Jim Hawkins, and I am giving Tim permission to have you call me if you would like to see what he has done.

Provided by YP.comTim is phenomenal - he finished some high-end speakers for me. He understood the importance of these pieces, and was ultra-meticulous. They literally turned out perfect in every way. He even personally delivered them! I couldn't have asked for more. Tim, you are an artist and a gentleman.

Provided by YP.comCan't say enough great things about Tim and his workmanship. He worked extensively at my home over several months refinishing/staining/and lacquering fireplace mantels, double front doors with sidelights and an entire staircase and wood entry surrounding the master bedroom. Old wood or new, his workmanship was outstanding and his dedication to detail and pride in his work was evident throughout.
I would recommend him to anyone for any task. A true craftsman. Honest, dependable, and professional. Simply the best one can find in this field.

Provided by YP.comWe had Woodcrafters Workshop do a few different jobs for us and all were done beautifully. The first job was taking some cheap Ikea furniture and making it look much more classy by deepening the color. He did a perfect job of matching the color to our son's new espresso colored bed. The second job was in redoing our stair banister. He took an ugly looking oak colored banister, stripped it, and stained it to a gorgeous dark wood color. We couldn't be more pleased and have already received numerous compliments on how amazing the banister now looks. We recommend Tim Hickson and Woodcrafters Workshop without hesitation and complete confidence in all that he can do! Thank you Tim!!

Provided by YP.comTim is a true woodcraft artisan.
He has repaired and restored several pieces of furniture in our home over the past 6 years, including our beloved entry Dutch door, which takes a beating from the weather.
Tim is meticulous in his worksmanship, his attention to detail; he shows up when he says he will, completes the work in a timely manner, and he has a delightful sense of humor.
We always get the feeling he loves our furniture as much as we do.

Provided by YP.com"We have had the pleasure of working
with Tim over the past four years.
In that time he has repaired numerous
family heirlooms.
One particularly special piece was
my grandfather's childhood rocking chair.
It was found in a barn covered with
thick coats of peeling paint,the caning
on the seat was broken and it was rickety
and unstable.
Being over one hundred
years old and belonging to my beloved
grandpa, I couldn't imagine trusting
it's repair to anyone else! Tim maintained
its authentic antique quality while
strengthening it and bringing out the
beauty of the old wood. It has become
the focal point of the room.
It is now strong enough for generations
of grandchildren and friends to come. "

Provided by YP.comTim, thank you for bringing back to life three special pieces of furniture! All were passed down through the family and your amazing work has made them focal points in our home again. Your repair of my great, great grandmothers rocker allows us to use it again! The repairs made it solid, but no one would know you took it apart to do it. You did a great job!
We also appreciate your extensive knowledge of wood and finishes - and guiding us in making choices to bring out the quality of the other two pieces. We are very, very pleased with the results of the refinishing you did on each.
We loved working with you
