FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Simple pricing system. This work is all labor and time intensive and the material needed is negligible. Pressed cane is $60.00 for a seat or back plus $5.00 a running foot for material. Staining the new cane to match the wood is an additional charge. Hand woven (the most time consuming) is $2.00 for each hole around the wooden frame of the chair. Super fine cane is $2.50 a hole. Artificial rush seats are $10.00 an inch across the front of the chair. Estimates are given on refinishing and repairs on request. Send me a picture!
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Simple! We agree on the price, I confirm it by email, you drop off the chair, I do the work you pay me!
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
When I was first married, my wife agreed to repair a chair for the Women's Club. I had never done it before but after six attempts, I finally got it right! Forty years later, I am still doing them.
