Surprised my husband with an Anniversary Date-Nite. We made Wisconsin Adirondack Chairs. The owner was a lot of fun, patient and very helpful in explaining the process of assembling the chairs. I would definitely recommend and I look forward to attending another event. Thank you!

My brother and a gifted a DIY class to my mom for Christmas last year and we were finally able to coordinate a date to get together (Christmas in July!). I cannot say enough great things about our experience! My mom made a cutting board and I made coasters and they turned out amazing, we are so happy with the result! It was such a fun experience to make these items ourselves from scratch, minus a little help from Maddy (who was so great). I highly recommend Fisk Avenue for your woodworking DIY project and we will definitely be back!

Joel and his team exceeded our expectations. Although there was one issue, everything was resolved quickly and we were back on track. I look forward to having Joel do more projects.

Amy is the absolute best instructor I have ever had the pleasure to learn from. She creates a fun, professional, and encouraging environment. I have personally witnessed first hand her generosity in gifting additional products to encourage good experiences. I truly feel if you are looking for a good and lighthearted time this is the perfect place to go.

This was my first attempt at a DIY class, The gentleman who is running the class was helpful however, I do think that perhaps the staff was spread a little thin for class size.I chose a different technique for my project, I was told it would be ready the same night it wasn’t, so we had arranged a pick up for a day & half later, it wasn’t ready at that time and was put off another 2 days. I wish the ending experience had been as great as the artwork that is on the board.

Disappointed how it turned out. The decal was put on after I left and was not what I asked for. However they did offer to do the decal for free. I was able to easily pull off the decal. There are sharp nails sticking out on the bottom that I need to sand down. Flue in between the boards. Received it with nicks that were not there. Does not look very great. For the cost of doing the DIY project, not worth it.They need to get more organized if they are going to do more DIY projects. They were not organized when we were at the shop.Very nice people running it. Talented too. However for what I paid I would expect a much better product.

Joel and his team worked on this amazing custom built-ins. Great quality, very easy to work with, and even offered to deliver earlier than initially expected.

I placed an order with Fisk Avenue for a custom farmhouse style outdoor patio table on 6/24/20. Joel Ellington advised that the table would be done within 4-6 weeks. He assured me that it would be made to withstand the elements and would have a 1 warranty on any issues that arose. I provided clear instruction on how I wanted to table to be stained. After multiple follow ups, Joel finally advised the table was ready on 8/18/2020 (almost 8 weeks after order). He sent photos of the finished project and despite the clear instructions, it was not the right color. After my request for a refund, he agreed to paint over the stain (which likely was a corner cut but I agreed). This required additional time and he finally delivered it on 8/26/2020 (9.5 weeks after order).On the first use, one of the end pieces broke. I did not want to make a big deal out of it and my husband repaired the issue.We had the table on the outdoor patio for approximately 1.5 months then it was stored in the garage over the winter. When we pulled the table out this spring (mid-April 2021), the wood was warped, pieces of the wood were lifting, and wobbled. When we moved it from the garage to the patio the entire top disconnected from the bottom. I reached out to Joel and requested a refund citing my concerns. We only used this table outdoors for less than 2 months and it was already showing significant issues. He declined the refund but agreed to repair the issues under the warranty. He set two separate dates for repair of the table. Both times he failed to show. Now he is completely non-responsive.This was the biggest waste of $1,250.00 I have ever spent. Do not waste your time or money with Fisk Avenue. His lack of professionalism is astounding, and his product is subpar.
