Kay's Furniture Repair sanded the chair down, stained it to a natural color. New wheels were added because one of our original wheels kept falling off. My outlook is this was an investment of something we care about. This chair was my husband's, dad's work chair.

Berkeley Mills created a table for us about 15 years ago and it was looking like it had seen a few…read moretoo many dinner parties. We also got a new puppy who had scratched it (as puppies do). We tried to redo it ourselves, but we made it worse. So we decided to turn to experts and brought the table into John at Ciarlo Brothers. These guys are fantastic, the table that they returned looked better than the Berkeley Mills original (and that says a lot as they were a pretty great shop). True artists at refinishing!

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.

Overall nice experience and great value.

Lou calls you back THE SAME DAY you call him. Then he picks up the furniture at your place the NEXT day. Or comes to your house to make the repair, the NEXT day. Hard to imagine how he manages this. Frankly I'm used to waiting months for repairs. Lou solves the most difficult problems, a smashed broker rocker on a beloved antique. A broken leg on a Chippendale sofa, the wiggly table top of an 18th century tea table. He finishes his repairs so well you have to remember which leg or which rocker was broken or you won't see them. Lou is well-informed about furniture. And he loves antiques as much as you and I do. He knows a piece's age, knows woods, knows finishes. He feels the furniture. Only years and years of experience can bring such knowledge. Finally, Lou the old lady rescuer! I was several blocks from home when I was supposed to meet Lou back at the house. I had plenty of time to get back to him. UNTIL I couldn't find my car. So..I call Lou and he helps me find my car and we meet at my apartment. As if nothing had happened. Can you imagine how one of my children would have responded? Bless Lou. He's a gem. Call him right now. You'll be delighted!

This is the second time I had Aby reupholster the same bench. We recently made some upgrades to our…read morebedroom, so the bench needed a refresh as well. Aby did such a great job the first time, we didn't hesitate for her to do it again. I sent her a few inspiration pictures, and when I went to pick out fabric, she already had narrowed down the samples for us, which streamlined the selection process. A few weeks later Aby let us know our bench was ready. It was exactly what I wanted, and the fabric had the perfect texture and color. I'm sure I could have bought a new bench for the price of the reupholstering, but I don't think I can find one that's custom made exactly as I want.

This review is long overdue.

They took ample time to help me decide on the right fabric for me, and they did a beautiful job withe the chair.
