Testimonials

“ I have been working with Akiko for over 3 years. She completely stripped and resurfaced Mahogany trim, Plaster Wall Moldings, and a Plaster Fireplace Mantel from 1893 in our townhouse on the Upper West Side during our renovation. She recently refinished the wood stairs, trim and new wainscoting we newly installed. Akiko does not cut corners with any of her work. She plans every step of the work plan in detail - from the preparation to the final coat of finish. She really cares about her work and it shows withe her positive attitude and friendly nature. Her quotes were accurate and she sticks to her promises. I have dealt with many contractors over the years and she is one of the few that I still regularly do work with - which says a lot. I highly recommend Akiko. “

私は晃子と3年以上に渡って一緒に仕事をしています。彼女は、私の竣工１８９３年のアッパーウエストサイドにあるタウンハウスの改築中に、マホガニーの木枠、漆喰の壁枠、漆喰で作られた暖炉などの表面から古い塗装などを取り除き再仕上しました。最近、新たに取り付けた木製階段、木枠と木製腰壁などの最終仕上げをしました。晃子はどんな作業にも手を抜きません。彼女は作業上の段階を細かく計画します　－　準備段階から仕上げの最終塗装まで。ー　彼女は仕事を本当に大切にし、その前向きな態度と親しみやすい性格にそれが表れています。彼女が出す見積もりは的確で、その上彼女は約束を守ります。これまでも、多くの業者とやり取りをしてきましたが、彼女は私が今でも定期的に仕事を続けている数少ないうちの一人です。これは大きな意味を持っています。私は晃子を強く推薦します。

“ We were looking for a woodworker / craftsperson with the ability to restore the beauty of old painted wood for years - Akiko was recommended by one of her colleagues who told us that she was just the best. I found this remarkable and got in touch with her immediately. She was extremely responsive, and we met the next day. Akiko gave me a clear schedule of her work delineating the timeline. She carefully explained the steps involved and made sure I understood. the end product was beautiful and I kept asking Akiko for more work beyond the original project and she kept delivering. Akiko is greatly reliable in the quality of work she produces and extremely pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend her for any wood working she feel within her domain. In addition to be meticulous, Akiko is truthful and trustworthy.

“Akiko transformed the wood works in our house, bringing out the beauty buried by an earlier incompetent refinishing. She worked on every part of our 100-years old house, stripping and expertly refinishing our stairs, windows, fireplaces and floors. In addition to wood works, Akiko is expert with paint and plaster work ; she repaired water damaged plaster work in our house, completely replacing one ceiling without disturbing the decorative mouldings and has painted nearly every room in the house. She is extremely trustworthy and the utmost professional. everyone visits our house praises her works. “

晃子は私たちの屋内の建築木工装飾を、以前の未完成なままの再仕上により埋もれてしまっていたその美しさを引き出し、変貌させました。彼女は築１００年の我が家のあらゆる部分で作業をし、階段、窓、暖炉、無垢床をストリップ清掃し巧みに再仕上をしました。木工再仕上げ作業に加えて晃子はペンキ塗りや、壁や天井の漆喰塗りの技術にも長けています。彼女は漆喰天井の水害にあった部分を修理し、また、漆喰天井の漆喰装飾モールディングを破損することなく、一部屋の全天井を完全に張り替え、屋内のほぼ全ての部屋のペンキ塗装をしました。彼女は非常に信頼でき、最高のプロフェッショナルです。私の家を訪れた皆が、彼女の仕事を称賛します。

“ For more than 15 years, I have had a successful working relationship with Akiko Yoshida. She has carefully and meticulously stripped restored practically all of the wood works in my brownstone town house - window shutters, baseboards, hardwood floors and fireplaces. her work has enhanced both the beauty and the value of my home. I cannot think of working with anyone else. She is master in her craft. “

“ It’s a little scary to think about it now and I’m glad that experience is behind me. Although I had studied architecture, precious little was taught at the university that prepared me for being a general contractor. When I was introduced to Akiko Yoshida,I was in a difficult spot. I had just bought a late 19th Century mansion in Manhattan that have been hacked into 10 small apartments. The key to the project was to restore the building’s old world charm. The problem was that I barely knew whether to start. Fortunately, a colleague had worked with Akiko and her team and made a strong recommendation. Wood restoration is part art and part science. Akiko was successfully able to recover the natural beauty of the wood while safely handling/mixing the strong chemicals involved in process. We’ve remained colleagues through the years and I’d be happy to extend the same strong recommendations that was giving to me years ago.

Over the years that Akiko has worked on my family home, she has become more practiced. Akiko’s expertise is immeasurable. Her knowledge and skill are evident in the finish product. I highly recommend Akiko, who has transformed the walls and ceilings in my home that were crumbling to beautiful smooth walls and ceilings. She is hard working and efficient.
