It all started back in 1996 when David was presented with an opportunity to be trained under a Danish furniture professional . . . after a mutual friend shared David's DJ mixtape with Arne. What does DJ mixing have to do with furniture repair, you ask? Well, more than you might think! When Arne heard the precise timing of the music overlapping throughout the composition, he thought to himself, "This guy is a perfectionist. He'd probably make a great repair technician." 

For the next 11 years, David was trained under Arne and learned the craft of tuning and repairing specialized fine and custom Scandinavian and Amish American-made collections. After learning the ins and outs of behind-the-scenes furniture repair, it was time to take his skill to a wider audience. In 2007, David joined Raymour & Flanigan as an in-home technician, hitting the road and serving hundreds of customers each year. Staying true to the perfectionist standard he'd learned so well, David reached the elite status of maintaining the highest level of customer satisfaction in the entire company. 

However, as David interacted directly with customers in their own homes, he saw a need that wasn't being met. When David would arrive to repair their pieces of Raymour & Flanigan furniture, customers would ask if he knew of anyone who could fix their OTHER pieces of furniture. He didn't. But it certainly got him thinking.

In 2012, David decided to take the leap out of corporate America and pave his own way . . . founding Woodwise On-site Furniture Repair, LLC and meeting that repair need himself. Since then, Woodwise has served hundreds of customers each year and our reach has grown to meet the needs of individuals, furniture stores, warranty companies, moving companies, and home builders.
