Here’s a polished version of your review: — We recently had our coffee table and end table refinished, and the results were outstanding. The color is *very* close to what we envisioned, and both pieces now look like they came straight out of a showroom. The craftsmanship is excellent—clean lines, smooth finishes, and meticulous attention to detail. To our surprise, they even repaired a drawer we hadn’t realized was broken, which was such a thoughtful bonus. We’re so pleased with the outcome that we’ve already decided to have them refurbish an old bedroom set next. Highly recommended.

This was incredible! They refurbished a desk chair that was my grandfather and brought back to life 2 school desks that needed a lot of love. They were communicative, responsive and wonderful! I feel like I have a new way to give life to well-loved furniture that is good quality but doesn’t fit our style anymore. Will definitely book again!!

The experience was excellent. Even though they had an understandable delay due to unforeseen circumstances, they were communicative the entire time, arrived with the right equipment and did a superlative job on my desk. Am hiring again for my other project.

Exceptional communication, work quality and professional. Came through above & beyond on everything they said they would. Picked up table, removed top, took back, refinished it perfectly (faster than they said), returned, reassembled, tested before they left (self storing leaves) and were polite and on time. I wish my own employees were half as reliable as these two. Can't thank them enough...do not hesitate, they go above and beyond normal expectations.
