We were heading home from a small trip in the North Ga mountains on a Sunday and was wanting to go antiquing. Couldn’t find anything open but landed upon this little gem. It was such a unique surprise. We purchased a repurposed and hand made, unique one of a kind light fixture that goes perfect on our rustic themed back deck. Can’t wait to go back and buy more unique goodies in the future!

I've known Eric for a long time and he's always had a good eye for thrifting and repurposing things. I live in Illinois but saw that he collected some old camera's and I inquired about 1 of them. Not only did he ship it out the next day it was also well packaged. I will for sure be a customer for years to come and can't wait to actually go down and visit his store to see how far him and his store has come.

An amazing place to visit for unique one-of-a-kind hard to find items. Need that one piece for a project you have in mind? This is the place to get it. Don't want to create that one of a kind peace but have an idea in your mind? This is the place to go. If they don't have it they'll help you get it and/or will custom create something for you. Everyone who is there is knowledgeable, kind, and very helpful. A must stop on the way into downtown Ball Ground.

I’ve had the luxury of talking to a few employees, all of which were polite and courteous. Small town, warm, and creative atmosphere, I could walk around in this place and ask 100 questions all day. I absolutely dig that the owner was covered in sawdust and stain, it’s exactly what I expected. He was down to earth and very knowledgeable about antiques. He’s got things in there that have such history. He also custom makes all kinds of things. I advise everyone no matter your age to swing by and give it a glance.

The people, location and atmosphere of Rife is incredible. The caliber of their work is nothing short of master carpentry as they can make virtually anything in any range of quality. The owner is hands on and heavily involved. I have bought multiple items in their store over the years and have recently had a kitchen table built and the price is always more than fair. They are professional, friendly, and LOCAL. I don't think I will ever regret spending my hard earned money here.

This is our favorite places in Ball Ground, GA. If you want some cool and different this is the place to find it. We have bought a lot of custom built furniture…barn doors, outdoor table and amazing porch swings! The reclaimed wood and custom furniture is a bonus on top of picking the old finds that change weekly.If you’re looking for shiny floors and items you can find at Target that everyone in your neighborhood has……this might not be your kind of place.

We have been picking from Rife Repurposing since Eric opened up shop!We met Eric at a festival he was in, and we immediately loved a table he had on display. He took the measurements we needed and created a custom table for us. He has since made several pieces for us!Chevy step side bar, hall tree, coffee table, gates for our dogs…. And more!When we have out of town visitors visiting - we stop in for them to shop! And everyone loves it!!

Authentic salvage shop. Items, picked, pulled, and found and put on the shelf. Fantastic prices, friendly staff, new items regularly stocked, cool location. They also build awesome custom furniture. It's my favorite place to go hunting for salvaged treasures.

This place is awesome. People that don’t like man glitter (sawdust) should probably stay away and leave all the awesome stuff for the rest of us. I have several items from this shop and they are all high quality!

Filthy with wood shaving dust everywhere. Interesting items but the place needs a real cleanup.
