For Kim's Cabinets5.0Richard was extremely professional. You could tell he wanted to make exactly what we wished and he had so many suggestions that made us feel so confident in his skill. His experienced craftsmanship was quite evident in the finished product. it was such a pleasure to work with him.

For Stephen's Mantel4.8My wife and I had a very specific design and style in mind for our fireplace mantle and surround.
After a lot of hunting around and receiving we found Richard with Dovetails and Stitches, from the very beginning I knew he was different than everyone else that reached out to me.
After a couple conversations and a little looking into Dovetail and Stitches I decided to move forward, I've done a little finish carpentry work, enough to know that Richard knew what he was talking about and was asking me all the right questions.
My wife and I are extremely pleased with the outcome, considering that I live many states away and Richard had to do everything based on my measurements I am really impressed, I wish I could upload some pictures to go with the review.
The only reason I didn't give 5 stars across the board was for one minor adjustment I had to make.
Very glad I went with Richard and Dovetails and Stitches and highly recommend them.- DK

For Reclaimed Gym Floor Coffee Table5.0Richard (and his wife) were amazing with this project. The product he created is true craftsmanship, which is hard to find these days. He was wonderful about communicating and providing pictures every step of the way, asking for my feedback, making sure things were going the way I'd hoped, etc., etc. This is truly a beautiful table, incredibly well-made, and a piece of art in addition to function. And it was shipped so securely it could have been run over and still been fine! It was a true pleasure to work with him, and his ability to create beauty is astounding. I'm so grateful to have connected with him on this project and cannot recommend him more highly!

For Walnut Nightstand5.0I ended up with a nightstand far more beautiful than the one in the photo. Richard is a true artist and we collaborated on what turned out to be a work of art. Richard chose the perfect cherry and we designed a one-of-a-kind piece that is not only functional but stunning.
The communication was perfect. I am an artist and showed Richard the piece that will be hanging next to this nightstand. It inspired him to make a suggestion that we add a brass inlay and that turned out to be genius. It took it to a completely new level. I wish there was a way for me to attach a photo to this review because the finished product is amazing.
