Summary of Comments:
Budd Woodwork is in the business of “providing luxury,” and clients tell us they wish they could work with this masterful company “365 days a year.” The fi rm’s high-end historic restoration, replication and preservation work includes such upscale jobs as the Louis XIV Room at the Met and the Venetian Room for the French Embassy. Insiders say that Budd Woodwork Inc. specializes in classic French styles, especially Louis XV and Louis XVI, and caters to a sophisticated and exclusive clientele. The team at Budd Woodwork is dedicated to installing and replicating antique rooms—preferring to work strictly on historical and classical architecture. Founded in 1952 by Serafin Caamano, Sr., the company is now helmed by his son, Serafi n Jr., a fifth-generation cabinetmaker. With a full-time staff of eighteen—from cabinetmakers to installers—work is “never subcontracted.” Budd Woodwork works only through architects and decorators, who describe its skilled craftsmen as “humble” and “polite.” The firm takes on a limited number of jobs each year, since it only deals in the finest materials and architecture. The company’s intricate woodwork can be seen in high-end interiors in New York City, Palm Beach and California. Pricing is per project and ranges from $200,000 to $500,000 per room. Budd Woodwork is a recipient of the New York Landmarks Conservancy Award and is a member of the Institute of Classical Architecture. The firm’s work has been featured in The New York Times and Architectural Digest.

Client Comments:
“They are impeccable, courteous, quiet and punctual. No detail is overlooked.” “Experts all the way.” “Very principled about maintaining the highest level of consistent quality.”
