Kevin was a pleasure to deal with at Boustead and Brown. He took the time to understand what we wanted, and the custom bar-height chairs he fashioned for us showcase his superb craftsmanship and amazing attention to detail and quality. He takes great pride in his work and clearly has a deep love of his art and material. Our chairs are beautiful, thank you! Highly recommended for fine furniture projects.

My husband and I have used Boustead and Brown many times over the years now, and have always been incredibly happy with the quality of work and the quality of the service. We have found Kevin to be very kind and professional though out the whole process of having our kitchen made and installed. We strongly recommend him and his team, you won't find anyone better.

I've used Boustead and and Brown a number of times now. The quality is just fantastic. Kevin really takes the extra time and care at the start to make sure everything detail is right. Which is what you need on a complicated custom project. We can't thank him enough for the work he does.

Had Kevin and his team build us a reception desk. What I got was an amazing desk. The detail, quality, craftsmanship is exceptional. From a discussion over the old and now retired front counter Kevin went away and came back with this beauty. I cant not recommend Kevin enough. If you need custom furniture you need to talk to Kevin. Great desk and thanks Kevin.

When myself andmy husband down size from our house to an apartment we call Kevin and his team. They came out and did a wonderful job on a number of pieces for us. Storage cabinets and a home office. So when we need more work done, we had no problem get him back for our new dinning table and bedside tables. He is easy to work with and the quality and designs are just amazing.
