Testimonials

"​A true artisan! Yasser and his staff did a magnificent job on a large dresser and old cedar chest that had been in my wife's family for many years. The refinishing of the cedar chest required removing a green oil based paint. The dresser had deep water stains on the top and required reconstructing several keyholes and external moldings. The result was breath taking. Yasser cares deeply about the quality of his work and his customers. We are looking for more pieces for him to finish!"

"It was absolute pleasure experience from start to finish. We specially appreciated that, when they had sanded the piece of furniture down. We came in and were allowed to choose the stain based on how it looks, no matter how many stains we needed to try. He wanted us to be very happy with what we were going to get. He spent a great deal of time with us and we could tell the same about the customers who were there. He absolutely takes pride in his work and he likes to see the look on the people face, when they come to take their finish product. They would be absolutely happy and pleased. He was extremely knowledgeable about furniture, wood and finishes. He was extremely knowledgeable about every aspect about the restoration and refinishing. He was ahead of the schedule and have definitely recommended to 3 or 4 other people. They have an outstanding business."

"First of all, I had no idea how much of a difference an excellent professional restoration can make. I was stunned by the results, largely because I had no idea that good wood lay underneath the decades of damage. I sent photos of the pieces to the restorer's email address for estimates before going for the deal - he responded right away with reasonable costs so I went ahead. I assumed that he'd be too busy to take the pieces for several weeks, but he came that weekend and said that he'd phone once the pieces were stripped so that I could come down to his shop (near Dulles) to choose stains. Haridi called a couple of weeks later to tell me that they were ready for my decisions, and that he was very impressed by the quality of the dresser's walnut and workmanship - the dresser that I thought was a piece of junk and was ready to throw away. Again, I was surprised at how soon he had gotten back to me. I went to his workshop and was amazed, they really were beautiful. He showed me several different stains and finishes,and helped me to see what the results would look like - in the end, I just wanted to defer to his judgment. Good decision. Haridi returned the finished pieces nine days after I visited the shop. Even my husband was impressed. Needless to say, Haridi left with two badly abused deco nightstands and the cabinet that matches the dresser he had just finished - the cabinet was in even worse condition than the dresser, but now I know that in Haridi's hands it can be brought back to life."

"Always do what is right. It will gratify most of the people, and astound the rest.”

- MARK TWAIN

"Mr. Haridi did a fabulous job of refinishing the three cherry wood end tables that had a wood cane design on the bottom shelf. Since I couldn't go to his shop in Sterling, VA to select the stain color that I wanted, he took a picture of a piece of furniture that I wanted to coordinate the stain color with. The finished product couldn't have come out nicer and the stain color that he chose was perfect. Free-of-charge Mr. Haridi came to my home to pick-up and deliver the pieces of furniture. I asked if he could have it completed in 2 weeks which he willingly did."
