Beverly Wood Works

Damon Nelson of Bevery Wood Works grew up as a 5th generation Andersonville resident and is very familair with West Ridge. He says he's always loved the quiet tree lined streets he and his older brother would often pedal down. 
 
Since leaving Andersonville for the southside neighborhood of Beverly he has created Beverly Wood Works. He specializes in wood radiator covers, but also builds reproduction Craftsman era furniture as well as built-ins, replacement doors that match the originals and window screens and storms, all at resonable prices. Damon says he started Beverly Wood Works as a creative outlet, not a money maker.  His goal is to help those in the know about the history of their homes create a living environment for themselves that is appropriate to the original character.
