RESTORE A FAMILY HEIRLOOM
From restoring antique sculpture to sharpening paring knives, our staff of trained metalsmiths is on hand to make your metalwork as good as new.
Just wanted to drop you a line and tell you how awesome the WHBQ wall looks! You guys did a killer job on it and even though the letters aren't up on it yet, which is the last touch, it looks like a MILLION BUCKS. Thank you so much for bringing it to life and there's no way on earth we could have done it without your creativity and hard work.
