Above and Beyond!
I am new to pipe smoking and was given an old pipe without a stem. I researched and found Ric and Briarville. I called and to my surprise spoke to Ric directly. A wealth of knowledge and full of passion, I felt very comfortable sending my pipe to Florida from CA. A short time later, I got my pipe back and it looked amazing. It looked brand new, absolutely beautiful. Also, I was emailed a… Read more “Above and Beyond!”
Great pipe repair and Tomasso Spanu handcrafted pipe
I sent 4 pipes for stem repair and overhauling. They came back in mint condition. I could not be more pleased with Briarville. I also purchased the Tomasso Spanu pipe from the web site. It is a magnificent piece of workmanship. Thank you Ric.
First class pipe repair
My pipe was brought back to working condition in the time I was told. I would use Briarville Pipe Repair again when needed.
Wonderful
I just got back 3 pipes I had sent to Briarville; two needed substantial work and one just needed a light cleaning and a replacement stem. All came back looking a whole lot better than I had expected. The repair work on one of the tenons was first rate and almost invisible. Truly great work
Old Into New!
If you want an old pipe completely refurbished and made virtually new again, Briarville is the place to go. Reasonable cost, expert work and great communication.
Worthy of your trust!
Just received my grandfather’s old pipe today, and all I can say is WOW! The stem, the finish, the chamber carbonizing, and the rim dents have all been flawlessly fixed. Thanks so much for breathing new life into this family heirloom piece. Your work is amazing. Keep it up! I will def be sending you a few more pipes in the near future.
Great Service!
This is my second time to use Briarville Pipe Repair. Ric Farrah always calls when he receives your pipe to discuss the project, just as he says he will. The job is done on time, and for a most reasonable cost. Return shipping is quick. It is a pleasure to do business with such a gentleman and fellow pipe smoker. Most highly recommended!
High Quality Workmanship!
I almost can’t believe the quality the workmanship. I feel like I’ve got 3 brand new pipes. One pipe was my fathers and a bit mistreated. It now looks like I just purchased it new. Thank You so very much!!
Amazing as always
Been using Briarville for awhile now and they never fail to come through and leave me in awe. If you have a pipe you’ve been wanting restored but nervous of who to use, look no further! They handle the services professionally and timely, and you get back a beautiful product!
Excellent work, quick turnaround, easy process
I had a couple pipes whose vulcanite stems had oxidized. I sent the two pipes to be restemmed, and all I knew is that I wanted acrylic stems to avoid oxidation. I told them “I trust your judgment on stem color and bend–do whatever you think looks good!” I tend to be picky, but I didn’t know how best to communicate my preferences. It’s like they read my mind. They also polished up the bowls… Read more “Excellent work, quick turnaround, easy process”
Beautiful Job
Afternoon Briarville!! Just received my pipe 1/08/2019. What a outstanding repair. Wish I had your talent. Thank you very much, George
New Stem Exceeded my Expectations
I got the stem of my favorite pipe replaced for Christmas. The company answered all my questions and helpful. When I got my pipe the stem was like a jewel and beyond what I had hope for. Will be using this company again for any of my future pipe repair/ maintenance needs.
Fast fix
Beautiful. Fast. Happy. Thank you
Churchwarden Stem Conversion
Briarville did a very nice job adding a churchwarden stem to my old Barling bowl. It involved a bit of custom work as the shank on the Barling is a bit larger in diameter than would match to most stems. They found one, though, and I’m definitely happy with the result. Smokes beautifully. Cheers.
Welcome Back
My dad’s favorite pipe broke yesterday when he accidentally dropped it. My dad is a tough guy, but this is a special piece and he was understandably upset when it broke. So I secretly swiped the broken pipe and mailed it off to Briarville. Ric was terrific, he called me to go over the repairs before doing them. We talked for some time and afterward I felt very reassured about having dad’s pipe fixed and… Read more “Welcome Back”
Crusty and cracked to new
Hey Ric, I sent you guys an old Peterson full bent with a crack between the shank and the bowl. It was an eBay purchase that leaked moisture through that crack. The stem looked old and the bowl looked old too. Someone got a lot of use from it, but not me. What was mailed back looked like a new pipe. I’ve used your service before and knew Briarville was good, but not this good.… Read more “Crusty and cracked to new”
A Great Ordering Experience
The owner/staff was congenial, went out of their way to assist me with my order. They processed the order immediately and informed me directly of the status. The package shipped out without delay. Upon receipt I inspected the pipe – it was a very good product and was in first rate condition. I was very pleased with the service and the personal attention they afforded me. Almost like dealing with family – maybe better.
Reliable, honest and fair
Briarville has never disappointed me; they have always proven to be reliable, honest, fair and fast. Ric’s prices are reasonable and for the quality of work is a great bargain No matter whether you need a minor repair or major restoration the folks at Briarville have you covered. The latest work they did for me is outstanding and I cannot say enough good things about Briarville.
Fantastic!
Hi Ric I have just received my pipe back from Briarville. I couldn’t be more pleased. The pipe looks brand new and since it is over 50 years old, that’s saying something. Everything about my experience with Briarville was as perfect as could be. Thanks so much. You can be sure I will be sending any other pipes I might need to be refurbished to you and I will be telling all my friends about… Read more “Fantastic!”

EXCELLENT WORK
I just received my pipes back from Briarville. The workmanship was incredible and exceeded my expectations. I’ll be sending all my pipes to them when the time arises again. Keep up the good work
Amazing Experience
I just wanted to shout out and thank you for my new favorite pipe! I had no idea that the stummel I sent you guys could look and function as good as you made it. And the stem is out of this world! You probably get tired from hearing this, because it sounds like you are pretty consistent with exceeding expectations, but I was knocked out with every aspect of the experience. From the ease… Read more “Amazing Experience”
My wife choked up when she saw how wonderfully new all 15 pipes turned out.
I normally don’t do this but I have to write and let you know what an exceptional job you did on the restoration of my Father-in Laws pipe collection. He was a wonderful man and if he could see them, I know he would be more than pleased. At first look, my wife choked up when she saw how wonderfully new all 15 pipes turned out. It’s hard to find people now a days who… Read more “My wife choked up when she saw how wonderfully new all 15 pipes turned out.”

I am very happy with the work.
Just a message to let you know I received my Parker Suosr Bruyere pipe back from you today. You opened up the stem and and cleaned it up for me. Great job Ric. I am very happy with the work. It looks almost new again and I read the same reviews from everyone on GPSS and Old Codgers. I can’t wait to see what you do with the new acrylic stem on the meerschaum I… Read more “I am very happy with the work.”

What a great job guys!
Just got my pipe back from getting a new stem installed. What a great job guys! The stem is factory perfect. No way to tell it is after market. You also polished the bowl. Looked like a different pipe. It pulled grain up I had never noticed before. Enjoyed it so much now going to feed my collecting addiction and buy a new pipe I have been looking at on your site. Thanks a million… Read more “What a great job guys!”
You will have all my future repair business
Got my repaired and reconditioned 50 year old pipe back this afternoon. Show and tell at the pipe club meeting. They were impressed, the shop owner was impressed, the store staff was impressed. I was overjoyed to see my first pipe from 50 years ago looking better than new. The silver band and shank repair are perfect and the refinishing on the wood was unbelievable. The pipe really didnt look this good the day I… Read more “You will have all my future repair business”

Hey Ric, I just wanted to say job well done, very well done on my old Wilke and those two unfinished pipes. They are beautiful and will be a nice addition to my collection. Thanks again ~ Josh Repoza – Fall River, MA
Briarville Signature Supreme!
I REALLY like the Briarville Signature Supreme I received earlier this week. You really did a first rate job on that pipe. Smokes wonderfully too!! Ed Darragh Spring Grove, PA
This pipe could be a museum piece
The Signature Supreme is a pipe light in weight, a great smoke and a work of art! This pipe could be a museum piece but most museums do not allow smoking. Thanks Briarville for your work. Edward Hoy Huntingdon Valley, PA
extremely happy with Briarville
Ric – Received the pipes back today, extremely happy with Briarville. I’m sure to send more work your way soon. Thanks! BLAKE KAISER Owner SATX Pipe San Antonio TX
Incredible job!!!
Briarville, Incredible job!!! I received the pipe and let me tell you that I am so happy with the beautiful stem you created for me, I cannot thank you enough! It’s absolutely beautiful! I just ran two bowls through it and the smoking experience was the best ever. Also, as you said I can now pass a pipe cleaner through it which I was never able to and that’s a big plus. I just… Read more “Incredible job!!!”
