Val made our vintage kitchen barstools beautiful and back to functioning. The base of one of the chairs was no longer able to support hardware to attach the legs. So he made a new base and reupholstered them. He had an excellent selection of sunbrella fabric swatches to choose from. He's not the most cost-effective choice out there, but definitely the most skilled. read more

Antiques by Val - This dough bin was completely restored and is stunning! - Furniture Repair Near Me - Pasadena, California

I have a really cool mod couch which needs new cushions. I went to this business (by the way, it is indeed the back part of a house, so don't be afraid to head on back). I was impressed by the shop, they sew, embroider, fix furniture and do tailoring from that shop. I had brought my seat cushions in. Val brought out a catalog of cloth examples and I found a nice black vinyl leather to reupholster my couch. I needed one seat created so Val put me in his books (he was very busy) to come to my house on a Tuesday at 5:30 PM. He took my name, address and phone number. Said Tuesday comes and Val does not show up. No phone call, no follow up call later explaining why he's MIA. Luckily I had been to 3 other places to get quotes, and Val's quote was the most expensive. Needless to say, my business is going to someone who wants it. read more

What a gem. I called several businesses for furniture repair thru Home Advisor and none of them would provide pickup and delivery for repair of my leather recliner. When I called Val here at Furniture Repair, he gave me an estimate over the phone and said we would stop by and take a look since he was in the area. He confirmed the repair with a written estimate, I gave him a deposit, and he took the recliner back to his shop. He called the next day and delivered the recliner in better condition from when I purchased it 3 years ago; this was a real 'delight your customer' moment. I gave him two more chairs for repair after he gave me another written estimate. I have an antique clock I want to repair next. I can't wait to see how that goes! read more

Val just delivered our leather recliner that is absolutely beautiful!! This is my husbands favorite chair and it now looks better than new. In its original form, the removable seat was leather covered on one side only, but Val covered both sides of the seat. Also, he included an extra "flap" for the top of the chair where it gets a lot of wear. My husband and I are totally and completely happy with our "new" recliner! read more

Beautiful work, and detail-oriented in addressing all areas of repair. Val made suggestions, was reasonably priced, and completed in a reasonable amount of time. Looking forward to working with him again in the future. read more

I used Val to repair the arm on my antique high back chair that had been broken in a couple of places during a move. No matter how many times I explained the delicate nature of my antiques the movers still handled them roughly. I was nervous even letting the chair from my sight as it will eventually go to The Huntington Library. But Val promised and reassured me the chair was in good hands. I was amazed and relieved when it came back. Not only did he good a great repair but also fixed the scratches on the wood legs that are common on older furniture. Val also did some repairs on an antique lamp that is irreplaceable. Now we can use and appreciate the lamp without hiding it in the closet. I highly recommend Val's work and old school craftsmanship. I will definitely use his services again. read more

Fabulous antiques refinisher and repair! Reasonable prices and quick service! Highly recommend.

Tried four times to get an estimate for furniture damaged by moving company. Chose this company based on Yelp reviews and because it's close to my home. However when I called to ask for an estimate- Val said send him an email with photos, then said send him a text with photos, finally said send another set of photos on email and text. Thanks for wasting my time. Hope business continues to be so good you can't give any estimates. read more

I hired Val to fix an old sofa chair that had broken. I was AMAZED at how well he and his wife repaired it. They were so professional. Part of the frame on my chair had broken and the upholstery had torn. Now, it is like new and the cost of the repair was very reasonableable. I would definitely recommend Val to anyone who needs furniture repair. Thanks Val! read more

Hi, Val, I will go back again. thanks for your help. My wife really like the chair. read more

Val and his team did beautiful work on several pieces of mid century furniture for us. He came to our house to do the estimates the same day I made the request.

I am happy to make an excellent recommendation for his craftsmanship and customer service. read more

After reading his reviews on Yelp, I recently had Val repair a ladder back chair that had belonged to my great-grandmother and meant a lot to me. Someone had stood on the seat to change a lightbulb and had broken the rush seat. Val did a beautiful job of completely replacing the woven rush and he did it in a week. Plus he reglued the joints to make the chair sturdier and touched up the finish. His fee was reasonable and his manor lovely. I definitely recommend Val and his restoration skills! read more

I hired Val for his services when I moved into my new apartment in pasadena. My sectional was too big for the elevators/stairwell so I needed someone who can take it apart, move it into my apartment and then put it back together. I called Val and he said he was able to do it. Val met me at my storage, broke my sofa apart, moved it in and put it all back in less than 2 hours! He did an amazing job. I would highly recommend him and would definitely use him again for other services! read more

Spectacular service. He repaired a dresser for me. The repairs were fast and well done , and way cheaper than the other quote I got. He's also very responsive via phone or text. Would definitely use Val's service again. read more

Val is amazing. He is a true artisan, passionate and knowledgeable about his work and very reasonably priced. We needed a large cabinet converted into a smaller cabinet, it needed to be cut down into about half. This was a decorative cabinet, so it took a delicate touch and knowledge of furniture to do it so it was not obvious it had just be cut in half. I called around to different furniture people and several of them said they couldn't or wouldn't do it. Val immediately said it was no problem and he could do it easy! He did a BEAUTIFUL job. In addition, I had him fix some chairs we had and not only was he able to educate us on what time period the chairs were from, but what type of wood they were (even though they were painted). He quoted me a price for the chairs but then said he would look into another way to fix them to try to safe me some money. In the end he was able to do it the cheaper way and saved me about half! He is very professional, always answers his phone and arrives on time. He is a great guy and wonderful to work with. read more

Val did a great job for me. Whereas others required I give them my sofa, even though I had the slipcover and all I wanted was another, Val took the old one, measured mine and delivered to me a beautiful new slip cover in less than a month. He'll get all my business from now on and I've recommended him to others. read more

Val did a fanatic job for me. He upholstered an antique Duncan phyfe sofa and refinished many of my antique pieces. He delivered timely (in fact, even when he had a horrible flu, he finished the job on time and delivered because i was having a party the next day). the work was done meticulously and beautifully. Plus, he's reasonably priced and doesn't try to oversell you or upsell you. I highly recommend him. read more

Val and his family have restored three family heirlooms for us and we could not be happier. Their work is impeccable and we would definitely recommend them to anyone. Also for upholstery and seamstress work. read more

I called Val to repair the cane on my dining room chairs. I told him I had two chairs that were broken, but I would redo all six of my chairs. I wanted to be sure they would all look alike. He promptly came out to pick them up. When he saw them, he said the four chairs were fine and he would only need to repair the two. He took them and within about ten days returned them. They were beautifully done and look exactly like the others. I felt the price was really fair for what he did. If I need any other furniture repair, I'll be calling Val!! read more

When my all wood tv stand broke and split at one of the doors hinge, I though it was over for my tv stand. I tried taking apart my tv stand to get only the piece of wood that needed to be duplicated, and I made my tv stand worse by taking some of it apart. I found Val, called him, sent photos, and he told me he can fix it. I was amazed at how he put back together my tv stand and repaired the broken split wood! You can not even notice! Nice job Val. read more

This is business at its best. Called on a Thursday afternoon and spoke to Val. Explained problem with broken recliner sofa. Quoted me reasonable price including pick-up and delivery. Arrived on time, as promised, next am and took sofa. Said would try to fix by next day (Saturday), but promised by Tuesday at latest. Called me Monday am and said sofa done and could deliver within hour. Arrived within 45 minutes with sofa fixed! While here at both pick-up and delivery, Val and assistant moved another chair for us to use while sofa being fixed; no charge. We inspected Val's work; neat, clean, sturdy (fixed with strong wood as frame was broken). Val was polite, professional, and true to his word. Furniture Repair/Val is a good local Pasadena/Altadena/La Canada vendor; support him!!! read more
