One item - a Hammond B-3 organ cabinet, was a wreck from years of on the road touring around the world. Jamie restored it to pristine condition. He repaired smashed moldings and fixed numerous gouges, scratches and dents. The other item was a speaker cabinet. Although it was in better shape, it was 40 years old and was showing signs of wear and tear. Jamie did a beautiful job with both. I recommend him and his shop wholeheartedly and enthusiastically.

The price is reasonable and it's absolutely perfect for my situation! I highly recommend this service and for any valuable fabric furnitures! Love it! Most stores just tell you to redo the entire sofa but mine is a vintage fabric! ! I think these stores just want to warn my money and absolutely have no knowlege of preserve vintage fabric furnitures! Plus the fabric is no longer available , it would have e cost me an arm and a leg to redo it! The appointment is a long wait but worth it! The communication is excellent !!! Keep up the good work! I appreciate the fact that the store is able stitches back( a lot art)! Thank you!

My experience was great! The technician arrived at the earlier part of the arrival window, as I…read morerequested, so I could leave for work on time. He was very kind, listened to my problem with the recliner, and went right to work. I appreciate how respectful of my home he was and how he didn't want me to lift a finger to do anything to help. He showed me the broken spring after he repaired it, made sure the recliner and sofa set were connected, left the place clean, and even allowed me to take care of a few things before putting it back together, all in a matter of 25 minutes! This is the kind of service that is genuine, founded on good moral ethics, and rare. He was absolutely worth the wait. Highly recommend!

To be honest, I would give this business SIX stars if I could…read more Peter is a true craftsman. He spent time carefully looking over the chair I brought in, a family heirloom that had been buried and broken in my garage for years. He analyzed what it needed, gave me some options, and we agreed on his approach. He not only made the complicated repair, but gave the chair more strength and durability than it had. He produced a beautiful result. You can tell that Peter has a love for and pride in the work he does. And his price was reasonable. I couldn't more highly recommend his services.

Peter communicated with me directly and had his associate pick up the chair. He has a busy business and the chair was definitely a lot of hard work. It took a little over two months for it to be repaired but I got it back today and I am astounded. If I did not know better, this over a hundred year old chair could have just been carved yesterday. Peter will take a chair apart and put it back together again like magic - with a lifetime guarantee. I cannot recommend him more highly.

Boris provided amazingly detailed consultation on the process he'd use to replace the right arm rest's broken shock mounts, but also disassemble the chair to examine if other portions may have been overly stressed such as the rear shock mounts. He also gave advise on the proper way to lift and transport the chair, the best ways to sit on and then exit the chair, and recommended the best leather cleaner conditioner for us to order. He estimated the number of days it would take to repair our 1975 Eames chair and was right on the dot! It is easy to tell that Boris is a true craftsman when it come to these Eames chairs!

No words can fully express what a MASTER furniture restorer Boris is. I had an antique dresser that…read moreI bought 40 years ago. It wasn't in the greatest shape. And I admit, I put a lot of wear and tear on it as well. The finish had many water stains, scratches, and dents but what was worse - the drawers inside were unusable. I couldn't get them open or closed. But in January 2024, I used Lugg to haul it to Boris and he transformed it into magnificence. Unbelievable. Beautiful. Fast forward to this fall, I had an antique desk that I'd picked up off the street about 20 years ago. Its finish was so bad, I just painted some ugly red marble finish over it. Many coats. Then I put glass over the top. I had it like that for 20 years. It wasn't ok, but first the glass cracked and when I tried to remove it, it stuck to the paint and wrecked the surface. Plus being near a window, there was much sun damage. So I took it to Boris and he worked his magic, restoring it to its original walnut finish. I simply cannot believe how beautiful it is. I had no idea it's wood was so nice, So in conclusion, YES, I highly recommend this business. Be willing to wait 4-6 weeks, buts what you will get back is really something to treasure. Thank you Boris!

Arley from Furniture & Repairs did a fantastic job. You can tell right away that he really knows…read morehis craft. He took the time to explain what needed to be done and clearly takes a lot of pride in the quality of his work. On top of that, he's just a very personable guy and easy to work with. It's refreshing to meet someone who still approaches their work like a true craftsman instead of just rushing through the job. The repair turned out great, and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. I'd absolutely recommend Arley to anyone who needs furniture repaired or restored. It's getting harder to find people who care this much about doing things the right way.

My wife and I have had great experiences with two other woodworkers in San Francisco, but they were…read moreunavailable for this project, so we hired SF Custom Woodworks to: 1. build a windowbox which would also function as a headboard for a bed, with built-in drawers and hinged openings for storage, made of ash veneer on plywood 2. cut a large slab desk which previously filled that window into two smaller desk slabs, to be installed elsewhere Our main contact was Alex, who was great to work with: rapidly responsive at all hours, friendly, accommodating. We were quoted $7,850. Remarkably, the windowbox was built and installed in less than a week. Unfortunately, the attention to detail in execution was poor: * the seams between the four main pieces aren't properly aligned, producing unsightly and rough-feeling edges * many of the edges were cut in a way which badly chipped the veneer * one of the hinged openings is badly misaligned, resting several mm above the surface * a drawer face was delivered with a stray drill hole * one of the main front faces was delivered with a large gouge * one of the drawers was designed to hold a CPAP machine; Alex carefully measured it, but delivered a drawer which didn't fit it * the drawer faces were attached with finishing nails rather than hidden joinery; the nail holes were then covered with poorly matching filler * the desk slabs were returned to us with gouges in the main surface, a 2" divot taken out of an edge face, and unfinished sides Alex told us that the misalignments are because our floor isn't level--which is fine, but the other two woodworkers we've worked with carefully shimmed their bases into place on-site so that everything would be level. Alex told us that finishing nails were necessary to attach the drawer faces, but another woodworker who built ash veneer cabinets for us produced beautiful results with hidden joinery. We sent Alex a list of 13 issues with photos; Alex gamely told us that he'd send one of his woodworkers to fix all but one issue. After a month delay with several reschedulings on both sides, the woodworker came. He fixed the two issues with the desk slabs, but in the process he also partially removed its surface finish, without comment and without offering to refinish it. He said he didn't know how to fix the other issues, and we were left with unfinished desks we still couldn't install. At this point, Alex stopped responding to messages. I gave up and refinished the desk slabs myself, which took about five hours. We planned to put a cushion on half the windowbox and leave the other half exposed, to enjoy the wood tone, but because the execution quality on the windowbox was poor, we decided to cover the whole thing with cushions instead. They meant well, I think, and they really did try. They did deliver roughly the windowbox we wanted, though with a low level of craftsmanship. I think they just don't have the skills/experience needed to execute this project well, and we didn't realize that before hiring them.

We had two projects: 1. Replacement of table legs (to a midcentury modern teak table) that were…read morelost by the moving company during a recent move, and 2. Replacement of six worn dining chair seat cushions and making the chairs more stable and safe. Alex and his crew did a great job with both, using solid teak legs for the table and dissembling and reglueing the dining chairs and fixing the seat cushions. The mohair chair backs were in good shape, and glued to the frame, so we wanted to keep them, though the seats had no cushion left and needed replacement. Alex closely matched the mohair backs- as he said, "a little different style but you'll like it!" We do! The cost was very reasonable and both projects were done in less than a week, with pickup and delivery. It was a pleasure working with him: great communicator, knowledgeable, and honest. Highly recommend.

The quality of work was superb and the time it took to do the work was fast and fair. I decided to call again to have four outdoor Adirondack lounge chairs slightly reconstructed to eliminate any movement and had the seating of four white Richard Schultz 1966 lounge chairs and one chaise lounger cleared of all yellowing and touched up as they really looked terrible. Acorn did an amazing job. The Adirondacks were reengineered to hold their position at just the right angle and the Richard Schultz chairs/loungers were brought back to life. I highly recommend Acorn Restoration.

Long overdue review…read more Gianni , thank you so very much for the outstanding job you did in restoring and modernizing our family heirloom. You gave honest feedback about what could and could not be done, and why that actually might be better than what we had originally envisioned. You even refused to do work on a different piece of furniture that you thought could not withstand the work, and to turn away business like that in favor of honesty builds trust. The piece of furniture that you restored and helped customize is one of the favorites in our house. Thank you for making our dream a reality! For anyone considering a furniture restoration, Gianni is your guy!
