Legacy Restoration

Legacy Woodworking is a first class operation. I came to them with high expectations for a custom made bar to go in my shop/​warehouse. They well exceeded those expectations and I couldn’t be happier and more proud of this outstanding piece of art they created. People come in and can’t believe how gorgeous and perfect it looks. It is a statement piece yet sleek and thoughtfully made so that it seems perfectly fitting where it is. The type of work they do, this old world craftsmanship, is so incredibly hard to come by. They are the guys you want creating and working on the investments you make for your home, office, and space. They create family heirlooms. They are so versatile, too. Since the hand crafted bar, I’ve had them work on other projects large and small (from shelving to go behind the bar to pieces to an old table), with only the best outcomes, great customer service, and most of all beautifully handcrafted results. If you want true craftsmanship, no matter what you need– from restoring 1800’s doors to salvaging barn wood for a table, these are the guys. Philadelphia is lucky to have them!

My wife and I recently purchased a home with a barn in the Chestnut Hill area. We have hired 2 other companies to restore our new home, and they failed us miserably! My wife found Legacy Restoration by way of referral, and we could not be happier! Alex was not only knowledgeable, but eager to work with us. He was there to explain and clarify anything we had questions about. And when we called in, Claire was on the other end of the phone with all the answers and information we could ask for.
Our property is a project and a half, but I can tell you that I will NEVER call another company as long as Legacy Restoration is in business!
Our home looks beautiful, and out pockets were not so badly affected.
Thank you sooooo much!

I first heard about Legacy before i moved to Philadelphia. In fact, I wouldn’t have even moved to Philly if it hadn’t been for A.P. and his magic. I came across this real pretty old beaut, but she was damaged, ya know… she had been through some pretty rough times and she had seen her share of the plague. I mean, this house was like an 80 year old woman who got divorced at 30 and never got over it. She was sure a salty olé bitch if I’ve ever seen one, but a thorough walk through consultation, and i was reassured and comforted. Alex not only had it under control, but he knew EVERYTHING about every little detail in the old house AND how to take care of it without compromising the integrity of age, value, structure, craftsmanship, etc. even preserving and increasing value (Both aesthetic and monetary)!
Id trust Alex and legacy with my wife. Hell, I’d even let him take my dog for a weekend…

Living in an old house in Philadelphia (built 1850’s), my ancient windows were never very good at insulating the place and often rattled in the wind.
I heard about Legacy Restoration from a friend and felt it was time to invest in some window work. Alex, the owner is extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. It is clear that he is passionate about historic restoration and is obsessive over a perfect finished product.
Needless to say, my windows look amazing and my heating/​air conditioning bills have shrunk this year thanks to their flawless work. They also left not a single trace of their presence — the clean up was extremely thorough.
If you are looking for experts in historic restoration for windows and doors — look no further than Legacy Restoration!
