The caning matched the back exactly and it looked brand new. I would recommend anyone who needs caning to go to Please Sit Down in Tiverton RI and see Liz. She's fantastic.

I couldn't be more happy to have done business with them again to refinish my coffee table. They've transformed yet another old and worn piece (that used to be black and full of many years worth of scratches) into this new beautiful piece that's hardly recognizable. Thank you Refinishing Oracle again for your amazing talent, professionalism, and quick turnaround time. People NEED to know about your company, and we customers need to spread the word. Keep up the amazing work! I'm so glad I've found a refinishing company I feel comfortable with. I WILL be back.

After the desk fell into a million pieces and a reassuring call from Fred that it could still be fixed, I could not be happier with the most amazing restoration. Not only is it back in one piece, the tambour is fully functional and looks amazing. I couldn't have found a better business to work with, and Fred has been so helpful every step of the way. I look forward to working with him again in the future.

We had several items that were damaged during our move to Newport, RI and were thrilled to find out…read morethat Fred and Meg could repair our family heirlooms and our treasured international pieces. Both Fred and Meg are extremely talented and their attention to detail is remarkable. The entire process with them was seamless and conducted with ease. They are incredibly professional and flexible in terms of scheduling. Certain items needed to be repaired at their facility and those items were picked up and returned promptly. Other items were repaired onsite in our home and they were especially respectful of our time and environment. The quality of their craftsmanship is unparallel. I would highly recommend entrusting them with your most treasured items because they will take the time to ensure the piece is restored back to its original glory and sometimes, even better than before.

Who knew that furniture disassembly and reassembly was a thing? I certainly didn't until I treated…read moremyself to an extra cozy Boston Interiors sectional and the sofa portion wouldn't fit up my front or back staircase. Whoops! I had already been waiting two months for delivery, so to say I was disappointed is an understatement. Then the panic kicked in. Since it was a custom sectional, I would get majorly dinged if I returned it. But what other options were there? That's where Melo and Sons came in. The delivery guy put me on the phone with his manager to talk it over. Yes, returning the sectional was an option, as was taking out my dining room window to bring the sofa portion in that way (hell no!) Or... I could have some pros disassemble it at their warehouse then reassemble it in my living room. Of my three options, the third was the winner by a longshot. As I was the first delivery of the day, I patiently waited until Melo and Sons opened then gave them a ring. Joanne immediately answered and put my nerves at ease. It was obvious I wasn't the first numpty to purchase a too big piece of furniture that needed saving by them. After providing her all the requested information, I had a delivery date for about three weeks out. By the time my Boston Interiors salesperson called to discuss the failed delivery, everything was already tucked and tied with Melo and Sons. When the big day finally arrived, Mike and George showed up right on time and quickly got to work. They laid down moving blankets to protect the floor then brought up the disassembled sofa in several carefully wrapped pieces. Aside from being the consummate professionals, they were funny to boot. It took them less than two hours to reassemble the sofa and at long last reunite it with its other half. That evening, after three long months, I finally got to relax on and enjoy my sectional in its full glory. All thanks to Melo and Sons and their niche specialty.

I emailed Melo & Sons and quickly received a response with a quote from Joanne, who was extremely nice and helpful. An appointment was scheduled on 1/16/26 between 10-12. However, they came early, which was greatly appreciated. The two men that showed up were two for the nicest people. Both men had that leather sectional disassembled, brought up the stairs and reassembled in a few hours. After all their hard work, you can't even tell that the sectional was taken apart and put back together. NO scratches, dents, or rips. There work was impeccable. I sincerely want to Thank them for everything, because my couch would still be sitting in my hallway if it wasn't for their help.

When I…read morelearned they also organize, I worked with them for my closet and this experience went far beyond "cleaning" and felt like true care for my home and my things.

It's visually calming, easy to maintain, and makes getting dressed and finding my things peaceful. What stood out most was the team's attention to detail and respect for my belongings. Nothing felt rushed or careless. They took the time to understand how I use my space and organized it in a way that actually makes sense for my life. The final result feels elevated, functional, and very personal. If you're someone who values order, cleanliness, and a peaceful home environment, Rose's Cleaning and her team are exceptional.
