Architectural Detail has evolved into a resource for residential restoration specializing in hard-to-find plumbing and hardware pieces.  We are available Saturdays 10 – 4 to discuss your preservation needs and possibly help you with purchases.

You may have previously visited us on Mission Street in South Pasadena, at 512 South Fair Oaks Avenue, 299 Altadena Drive (same as 2449 White Street), or 33 Valley Street all in Pasadena.  Currently we have chosen to devote this web site mainly to a display of the nature of our business, however, we are showing some particular items for sale.  Please go to Contact Us to let us know what you wish to locate. We look forward to seeing you at our new location, 2602 East Foothill Blvd in Pasadena, next to Gayle’s Pasadena Architectural Salvage. 

During the last 13 years and 5 locations, we have supplied reclaimed used building materials for remodeling, rehabilitating, restoring, and redecorating.  Although we still heartily believe in the 3 R’s  (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle) it is our heartfelt belief that any restoration or remodel of classic architecture should be completely harmonious and consistent with the age and architectural style of your building. The business is run by Skip Willett and his lovely wife, Janice.
