Reached out to Fine Wood Repair for a table top repair. It was more complicated than any usual repair, as I damaged the top and left a nice crushed corner on it. We thought it was unrepairable based on other repair techs reactions and thankfully we found Fine Wood Repair! They sent out Lee and he completely restored this table top to new! You can't tell there was ever any issues with it! He was friendly, very professional, and finished the task quickly. Completely blown away with the results and we will definitely be using them again in the future! Wish I could give them more stars!! read more

Did a fantastic job repairing a cracked panel on a 50 year old grandfather clock. Quick work. Fair price. Great result.

Who knew that the Austin area has an old world custom wood craftsman! Guess what, Lee Haywood at Fine Wood Repair is the guy. He will fix your wood problems to perfection. Professional, courteous and honest he will make your day. Outstanding work and efficient. read more

These guys are great! I really appreciate that they do on site repair because I could not handle moving my damaged desk myself. They came to my home, repaired and restored my desk. and showed me how to take it apart and put it together for my next move, I'm very grateful for their help and kindness! And as a single lady, i always think about who I have inside the house, but I felt completely comfortable. high,y recommend. read more

Jim and Lee jumped in to help us with a broken table on move in day for our kids - they were super responsive!

They repaired my table and did an amazing job! Definitely recommend this company! The table was ready in a week.

Very kind staff and quick, quality service. Couldn't ask for more! We brought in a kitchen drawer that they fixed on the spot.

They fixed my cleaning mistake on a mid century teak coffee table! The Austin humidity had created a mold stain under an empty coffee mug I left out too long, and I tried to use vinegar to scrub it out (bad idea). Lee and co were so knowledgeable and repaired the table in a matter of days. They matched the original stain and also applied a soft satin finish to better protect it. I'm happier with it now than I was before the stain. Thank you! read more

Leanna, the receptionist was very welcoming and helpful, but the owner/manager (assuming it was) has absolutely no customer service experience. I understand this is a small business but that means customer service should be even more important. Time will only tell how well my chairs will hold up, but I can tell you that in the future i'll be taking my furniture repairs elsewhere especially if i'm not even saving much by coming here. Customer service is why i'm rating this company 2 stars. You may get a different experience from the company but this is my honest review. read more

I'm a bit late in my review! Sorry Lee! I highly recommend Fine Wood Repair. My vintage coffee table turned into a chew toy for my new puppy. I honestly thought my table was done for until I came across this Yelp business listing and took my table in for repairs. My coffee table came out beautiful! Lee and his team was pleasant to work with. read more

I found this company via yelp and can confirm they do a good job restoring furniture. I had a large dining room table that was 60"x80" that I purchased in 1998. After 26 years, had scratches and sharpie marks and general wear from supporting a family for meals and friends for dinner parties. They turned it around pretty quickly and were still giving it one last oil polish before handing it back to me. They gave me a verbal bid, I put down a deposit and the final amount was less than the bid. They charged me what the job took to finish. read more

I have hired Fine Wood Repair for two projects: a dining room table with gouges and water marks and refinishing bedroom furniture. Both projects resulted in 100% perfect repairs. I have done a fair amount of woodworking and finishing, but I know when to call the experts. Fine Wood Repair is not the cheapest or the most expensive. I am impressed by the pride of their work and skill of their craft. The team is also friendly, which is a nice bonus. I will not hesitate about hiring them again. read more

Great work on a chair. Great people also. We will use them again. They do prefer cash or check and Charge extra fees for credit cards.

Lee did a great job fixing our couch that has a busted leg. I will say that you do need to be patient. It's a one man operation at this point and he's got anywhere between 30-40 appointments in any given week. But it was worth the wait: from initial call to Lee coming and fixing was about 2 weeks. Well worth it! Highly recommend . read more

Fine Wood Repair did an excellent job repairing the finish on my harp. It was not easy finding a repair shop locally that would even work on a valuable instrument like mine and as you can imagine, repair shops that specialize in harps are pretty rare (only a few in the entire country) so I was pleased when I finally found Fine Wood Repair and they were willing to help me. Lee was easy to work with, knowledgeable, and I knew that his care and attention to antique pieces of furniture meant that my precious harp would be in safe hands. Lee and his staff sanded down the scratches and dents on knee-block, filled it in with epoxy and shaped it to fit the curve, and refinished it to match 100% perfectly with the original finish of the harp. Looking at it now, you could not tell there was ever any scratches or dents there. Will definitely use them again if I have any other cosmetic work that needs to be done on one of my harps, and will recommend to my harpist friends if they need any work done on their instruments too! read more

Very nice work. Repaired and restored my split and broken table leg to better than new condition. Definitely recommend.

Excellent workmanship. Lee Harwood was able to repair this gouge left by movers on this mahogany wood baby grand piano. Arrived on time (to our house) as previously agreed, performed the task efficiently for a very fair fee. Now the damage is indistinguishable. He also gave us some good recommendations on the care of wood furniture in the future. Thank you. read more

Lee is amazing! I didn't think my cabinet was salvageable. I tried at least five other wood repair companies and no one would touch this project. Everyone claimed it would be impossible to match the paint. Leeanne (I think that's her name, she works for Lee) was responsive and sent an estimate of $450, but she thought the end cost would be lower. I ended up only paying $270 with paint and my cabinet looks good as new. Plus, the service was excellent. read more

Let me first start off with saying how completely satisfied I am with Fine Wood Repair and I would HIGHLY recommend this service to anyone!!! I bought this large wooden bowl/platter when I was in Tanzania visiting a few weeks ago. The bowl was fashioned out of a natural full piece of wood. The person you crafted it into the bowl had done so keeping the natural elements of the wood grain, holes, and knots. I loved it from the moment I payed eyes upon it. The only thing I didn't like was this bird that had been carved into the wood to make it look like it was perched on the bowl. Well, I packed it in my luggage on my way home and it split in half somewhere along the journey. It was so disheartening. Still, I figured it could be mended since it was one clean break. I looked on Yelp and Fine Wood Repair came highly recommended. I contacted Lee and he was very timely in his response and gave me a fair quote. I dropped it off and he had it fixed a week later as scheduled. He also removed the dang bird, which I was not in love with. Lee is such a friendly and competent man. You'll be very satisfied with his workmanship and his attention to detail!! read more

Our dining room table leaves caught fire from candles that burnt too low! No replacements from the factory, and the table was too expensive to replace. Lee of Fine Wood Repair in Austin was able to clean and fill the charred areas and then match the finish of the surrounding area. I now have a happy wife! They are busy, but I highly recommend them if you have the time. read more

After an unfortunate encounter between my kid and my dining room chair, I was sad to think that my beloved piece of furniture was possibly unfixable. Having purchased the set more than 10 years ago, we would not have been able to replace the chair without replacing all six of them. I wasn't sure what to do, but buying a whole new dining room set was out of the question. So, having no previous experience with this, I came to Yelp and found Fine Wood Repair. Based upon one lone 5-star review and the reviewer's positive experience, I thought I'd give it a shot myself. And I'm so glad I did! I will say I had to call and leave messages on two separate occasions before I got a call back, but once we got the ball rolling, there were no further delays in communication. Having explained my situation, I sent pictures to Lee through his company web site and he felt that he could, indeed, repair the damaged chair. We set up a time for him to pick it up and he gave me a reasonable quote. Within just a couple of days, I have my chair back, looking as good as new. I am thrilled and would highly recommend this company. read more

I just wanted to take a second to review this company, I haven't actually used them but reached out for a quote on getting a mirror replaced in an antique armoire that shattered in a move. He responded in a timely manner and gave me a thorough explanation of my options, including the option to cut them out completely and go straight to the glass company (even recommended which company to use), but also gave me a quote for them to handle everything for me if I don't want to mess with any of it. I'm opting to go straight to the glass company to save a little money and if they won't do the install (he said sometimes they will sometimes they won't) he can do that portion of the job. So basically he will handle as much or as little of the process as I want according to how much money I want to spend. He took the time to explain all that to me knowing that he likely won't make a dime off of me (and even if he did it's a small amount). I just really appreciated that level of service and had to share. Even if I don't end up using him this time I hope I need his services in the future just to give him my business. read more

Very happy with the service. Even though it was a small job, I had expected to drop the chair off and wait a week or more before it was done. Instead, Lee fixed it on the spot in 30 minutes and he did a great job. read more

Lee did an amazing job repairing a deep gouge in my dining room table. I wasn't sure that it could be repaired to look like it did prior to the mover's damage. You can see it... BUT you really have to look at all angles to find the repaired spot. Thanks Lee. read more

I have a beautiful, inherited wooden hutch that's been broken for some time - my family shipped it to me from the West Coast to Austin a few weeks ago. Lee and Amanda were responsive, fast and thoughtful in their work during the two visits they took to my home to help fix and attach the two pieces. I will absolutely have Fine Wood Repair back to my home whenever I encounter another woodwork repair or related issue. It was a pleasure having them here and I look forward to recommending them to friends in Austin! read more

I tried to get bids from 3 different people to come to our home to fix the water marks that I had tried EVERYTHING on to repair. Lee responded to my email and provided a quote from the picture I sent. He also agreed to do the work in our home vs. us having to haul our breakfast table to him. This was a HUGE benefit for us! He came to do the work and I could not be more pleased! read more

really amazing business starting from the owner/ assistants to the final product. very generous. i had a bed sideboard repaired on the spot and when i didn't have the cash he immediately said not to worry and to just take it home for free. glad he had Venmo so i could pay him. my sideboard is good as new. very professional. highly recommended. read more

Lee tightened up and put gliders on my vintage dining room chairs. They were all loose and I was not able to sit on them. Now they are rock solid - back to life and ready for years of use! read more

Can't say enough about Lee's great work and fair pricing. I took 5 MCM danish chairs to him for some TLC. They are used in my vacation rental and get a lot of wear and tear and needing some reinforcement. He did an amazing job and a fair price, and I know these chairs will now last another 30 years. read more

Repeat, Satisfied Customer! Lee has visited my house on two different occasions over the past year. Once as a result of some dining room furniture damage done during a move. And second as a result of some bedroom furniture that was damaged during original delivery. The respective at-fault company contracted Lee for both jobs. After this second time though, I'm keeping his business card! Lee is a professional - timely, thorough, and helpful. He's made our furniture look like new again. We had an espresso-colored buffet with a nasty, deep scratch, a bedroom nightstand with a broken guide-rail, and a white bedroom dresser with a scuffed corner. Lee tackled all three and made them all look and work great. I'm a bit of a DIY guy, so anytime a trade professional (i.e. plumber, electrician, handyman, etc.) is at the house, I have a tendency to look over their shoulder and ask lots of questions. Some don't mind it and some hate it. Lee welcomed it! Once he was done with the requested work, I showed him the rail of a baby crib that went through some rough times as we experienced the "cry-it-out" phase of child sleep development. And by "some damage" I'm being overly generous. There are deep finger nail and teeth scratches up and down the dark wood rail. When asked if he could fix it, he of course answered yes, but also provided some tips should I tackle it myself. Then as he was walking out the door, I showed him my front door which gets beaten up by the afternoon sun. My original plan was to sand the wood all the way down to the grain before completely restaining. A project that probably would've taken me 2 weekends to complete. He showed me the tricks of the trade to have the door looking like new in 2 hours or less. If you have some embarrassing scratches or damaged furniture, do yourself a favor and call Lee at Fine Wood Repair. As you can see by his website, he has decades of experience in this trade. He does a great job and isn't afraid of letting you in on some of the trade secrets to make your other DIY projects go smoother and quicker. Thanks Lee! read more

Took valuable furniture for repair and never returned. I had to file a police report. - UPDATE - Lee contacted me and we worked out with return of the items and were repaired. It seems he had some things going on that impacted his ability to respond. Not satisfied with that as a businessman but he did return the items to me in the end ...4 months later. read more

This is a shout out to Lee Haywood for his incredible work repairing our chair. The leg was broken in an exceptionally messy way. After his exquisite craftsmanship, you can't tell which leg was snapped off. His price is reasonable, his lovely wife is both responsive and helpful, and his expertise is truly a dying art. Bravo to artisans who still invest such pride in art and skill! read more

Lee is a true professional. He was right on time and easily found and fixed the problem with my wobbly antique dining table.
