Tom and his team did a FANTASTIC job of helping us keep the history with our conference room table. His design ideas, detail, craftsmanship, and communication was refreshing, and on point during the project. We added a new base, re-finished the table top, and added power ports. He actually finished early, and was then willing to add one last detail for us (our original logo), which turned out great! We plan on using Ghent Hill again in the future, would definitely recommend!

Owner Response

It was our pleasure to work with Adam's Construction in updating this conference room table! It's particularly fun when you have amazing clients that are willing to take risks and think outside the box - and you guys delivered! We appreciate your kind words and look forward to working with you once again!

Ghent Hill did a beautiful job restoring a chair that we inherited from my husband's grandmother. At first, I thought there were only two broken rungs. However, when Tom noticed more broken and weak spots, he did a thorough job replacing those rungs. When I went to pick up the chair, I saw a small imperfection. He went the extra mile and took care of it right then and there without charging me extra. He also made a new seat for the chair to be upholstered by a seamstress. When he was done with the job, I saw the chair in a whole new way: A beautiful work of craftsmanship that showcased the natural beauty of the wood grain.

Owner Response

Joyce - Thank you for the kind review - it really means so much that our customers leave happy and take the time to let us (and others) know! We appreciate you greatly!

Tom and Aimee were amazing to work with. I took them a 100+ year old farm table that my great grandfather had built. It had been in storage for more than twenty five years and they brought it back to life with a rich finish without changing the character of the table. They are amazing at their craft and I would highly recommend them.

Owner Response

Wow! Thank you! We very much appreciated the opportunity to work on your family's table and hope that it continues to gather your loved-ones for generations to come!

I'm not sure this place is still in business. I sent a message via the contact form weeks ago with no reply. Left a voice mail and no return call.

Owner Response

Hi Carol and thank you for taking the time to review. We apologize for the lack of reply as we are more often than not in the shop and away from the phone. We do try to respond within a few days and can always be emailed at ghenthill@verizon.net. As for a contact form, we currently do not offer one as a method of reaching out...but may in the future! Should you still have a project that needs attention, we would welcome you to touch base again. Best - Ghent Hill
