Customer Feedback:
Wooden Window
“We own an old Oakland schoolhouse where most of the windows had been painted shut over the years. Not only did Wooden Window reverse the aging process and make them operate like new, but their workers were absolute gentlemen. They were very courteous and neat, and we felt confident about leaving them alone in our home.”

Customer Feedback:
Kay Chesterfield Mfg. Co.
“We had five pieces re-covered in our living room. They were helpful selecting the fabrics for our furniture after visiting our home to get an idea. The pieces were delivered on time, and the delivery men were very pleasant and personable. We couldn’t be happier.”

Customer Feedback:
Arachne’s Thimble
“I used to work at Kaiser in Walnut Creek. I now live in Berkeley but still take things to Arachne’s Thimble because I’ve never found anywhere better. I only have positive things to say. They’ve done things for me in a rish when I needed them, and I’ve never had any mishaps.”
