Isaac did an amazing job on my custom Monkey pod table and is super easy to talk to! You can really tell he takes pride and enjoys his work.

We had a desk for our new office commissioned from Once a Tree and it turned out absolutely beautifully. We couldn't be more happy with it.

Charles Crews

Thank you so much! I love my new dining table, so unique!!!!

Roberto Cervantes

Estanislao Garza

We just received our beautiful table. We had to wait a bit more than we thought but are so pleased with the result that it was really worth it.

Caroline Gimbert

Purchased a 10’ dining room table and a coffee table. They both came out perfect. Isaac was very helpful and informative and delivered beautiful products.

James Rhodes

We visited Isaac at Once a Tree during April 2020 and we picked a table, showed him what we wanted with the finish, the base and he had the table delivered to our home in Katy in a timely manner.

Kathy Garza

Beautiful work. We purchased a custom live edge bench for the foyer and couldn’t be happier.

Brenda Teo

Now, living in The Woodlands, we found “Once a tree” and Isaac brought them back to life. We just LOVE how they turned out!!! Cracks and cheap polyurethane finish are gone!

Miriam Ploetner

I had been looking at a few different businesses to create a custom live edge dining table, and I am thrilled that I found Once a Tree. Isaac was wonderful to work with.

Alex Lovell

We had a great experience with Isaac and OAT. We were able to pick a slab, the legs/base we wanted, and we had our table shortly after! He was very helpful and communicative throughout the process.

Stephanie Cox

Not Only Isaac helped me pick the right slab for my table, he actually did an amazing work to make sure I liked every step of the process, he did Golden epoxy with a hint of blue, and that looks just amazing.

Jay Perés

What an “Awesome Creation”!! My company brought a piece of the master art that Mr. Isaac miraculously created for our President Office… A piece of wood turned into a Masterpiece!!

Denise Gaines

We had an idea for two tables to match and Isaac executed our vision beautifully. He listened to our needs and delivered two desks from the same wood slab so they look like one in the same room.

Robert Macias

Beautiful live edge wood for our custom tables!! Isaac was very helpful and informative!!

Thalia Vazquez

This is my 3rd purchase from Isaac. He really listened to what I was looking for and kept me updated every step up of the way. Who would have thought that old stump could be so beautiful?!

Vicki Stalter

Excellent personal customer service. I picked my piece for the top and selected a base, and style, that best accommodated my seating preferences and room. Selecting my style base was extremely helpful.

Betty Melby

We absolutely love our table! Such a great experience to go in and pick out our piece and still be able to customize it. We get so many compliments on our table and it’s a piece we can pass down to our kids.

Lindsay Arredondo

Isaac is a true craftsman! We absolutely love our dining room table. He took the time to learn exactly what we wanted, explained the process and sent pictures of the progress.

Lori Waples

Great place for custom and unique tables. I always source by slab tables here for all my businesses.

Thomas Kolodziej

Went to this place just to see what they had because we couldn't find the table we wanted anywhere. Not really knowing what we wanted, this place has some beautiful pieces and we did find a table of a lifetime.

Todd Sanders

Truly an amazing place to find high-quality slab wood at a reasonable price. You can customize with ease for your room as we did with a 14 foot dining room table. Love this place!

Heriberto Ramos

This is truly a gem of a business! I needed 3 special tables for a client's new commercial offices. After visiting this location and meeting with the owner Issac, I knew I was in the right place.

Coraline

As soon as you walk into Once a Tree you're greeted by sights of live edge pieces of wood that are just stunning. I've not seen another place in the Houston area like Once a Tree.

Ramon Reyes

Love our dinning table! Once-a-tree has great inventory! Issac is the most attentive person in the world! Thank you once-a-tree!

R Morales

Excelent workmanship. I am impressed with the quality of the table and the wood that you use.

Juan Briceno

Isaac was so great to work with. He really took his time to help us when trying to decide on a table. He is very quick to respond to your questions as well. We love both our dining table and console table.

Darla Clark

Second table and still amazed. This time was a solid walnut plank turned occasional table. Custom legs (design and height), and the results speak for themselves.

E Brietzke

We got our coffee table and now getting a console table for Isaac. Easy to work with, and he did custom work (leg design and height) for both pieces.

E B

Issac at “Once a Tree” is a genuine craftsman. We bought a new home with a large dining room and spent weeks looking at various retail and custom table options.
