Cody's Lighting and Repair, Inc., named after their grandson, was founded by Richard and Glenda Henson in 1989. Although they started small with a simple booth in a local flea market, the couple quickly collected a wealth of knowledge and the very specialized ability to restore antique and vintage light fixtures.  Presently located in a 2-story building with it's own unique story in the Historic Phoebus neighborhood of Hampton, Virginia, they are still hard at work bringing lovely pieces of history back to present functionality.  Plan your visit today for a marvelous walk through time and a visual delight for the eyes!
