My husband and I recently purchased some retro dining room swivel chairs from a resale shop. We had an idea to turn them into counter height stools. We bought the legs and had the chairs in-hand, but needed help assembling them so that they were properly reinforced to handle use. That's where Matt came. And he was fantastic. He brought creative solutions, was communicative, and timely. He also went the extra mile to "test" 1 chair (separately) to make sure we were happy before investing in the other 3 chairs. Overall, working with Matt was a great experience and we would highly recommend him to anyone in the market for furniture repairs. We couldn't be happier with the result. read more

Matt Fixes Furniture - Repaired chair. No wobbling! - Furniture Repair Near Me

Our 100 year old handmade side chair had a broken rung. We called Matt who said bring it right on in. He asked how we used the chair to decide if he needed to replace the rung or glue the three pieces together without taking the chair apart. We rarely sit on this chair so we chose the easy repair. The next day it was glued and ready to pick up. It looks fine and he recommended that when we do use it, it shouldn't go to company. Matt offers prompt, courteous service that met our needs With a house full of old furniture I'm glad we found him. read more

I have an antique mirror with a lot of sentimental value that broke. I sent out 4 emails for quotes. Matt more responded the next day (I emailed on a Sunday). I have gotten one more response since and I'm writing this Wednesday. His quote was amazingly reasonable and after yelp reviews, and looking at his website, I went with him. The mirror is back hanging on my wall (Wednesday) and he did a great job, with some additional backing work that I wouldn't have thought to ask for, but am super pleased he did it. I highly recommend Matt, and would not hesitate to go to him again. - if driving, enter on 18th street. GPS took me a crazy wrong way read more

Matt Fixes Furniture - Table that Matt restores for us! - Furniture Repair Near Me

Terrific furniture repairman - he knew exactly how to reinforce the legs of my antique coffee table and give it new life.

During a move the bottom shelf of my wood tv stand was snapped in half. Matt did an amazing job building an entirely new shelf to match the entertainment system. He did a wonderful job and you would never know which side is the original and which is the replacement. He also brought the finished piece to my home and put it together to ensure the final product came out as intended. He was very nice and easy to work with. It was a great experience and I would recommend using his services! Thanks Matt. read more

I had heavy scratches on a dresser and numerous small nicks and scratches on various pieces of furniture. There was also a heavy shine around the handles on four of our cabinet doors in the kitchen. Matt did a fantastic job repairing the deep scratches and the other furniture blemishes. He also took down the cabinet doors and refinished at his shop. We had tried everything on the internet to remove the shine on the cabinets but nothing worked. Matt returned the cabinet doors and they looked wonderful. No more shine. The work was done in a reasonable time and at a fair price. I will call Matt again for any furniture repair that I may have in the future. read more

Please sort and read the lowest reviews left here.. because they're 100% spot on about this guy. He may have done some passable work for others but.. each piece we gave him came back w issues. His incompetence devalued our antique because he failed to understand you couldn't just paint over an issue & he did so without any communication to us about it prior. So we had no way of preventing him from doing something that ANY furniture restorer would've known better "not" to do. His time managment was a joke. 3 months in, no communication with him regarding our project s. I gave him latitude and didn't check in on him until about 2 weeks until agreed upon finish time.. Once I started checking in with him it was crickets. I really had to keep at him to figurge out what was going on. He rushed everything bc he didn't start on them until a few days prior to when we'd agreed they would be done. No communication whatsoever on his end to me entire time. I realized afterwards, that he was just avoiding me because he hadn't even started on them yet. And I made it VERY clear that I wanted quality over rushing. He didn't care obviousy bc the quality was not there. Not one single piece arrived without "issues". Like paint was still wet and smudging. When you pointed out or asked him about the every issue? He got defensive and rude. He's was not remotely professional in his demeanor or work with us. If you use him? Good luck! read more

BUYER BEWARE!! Do not use Matt for couch repairs. He was hired to fix a couch and instead compromised it to more breaks. Instead of replacing broken pieces he took small pieces and screwed them to broken ones. He also removed a support leg that was placed by the couch company to support the couch. He does not know what he is doing. I had to hire another company to fix this and I have asked Matt to refund the money he charged me. Legally I could have asked for the cost of the entire couch since he compromised it by removing the support leg but I only wanted what he charged me. He has not refunded my money. I am reporting him to the better business bureau. Don't use this service. Buyer beware! read more

Highly recommend...quality work, completed quickly, and at a reasonable price. Great job in repairing my dinning room chair right before Christmas, which brought me back again to have the arms removed from two bar benches. Matt did a great job removing the arms that were metal (added complexity) and Antonio reupholstered and also made slip covers...one stop shop. This business always come through...thanks again! read more

Matt is a master craftsman who understands how to get a result. We had an inherited giant sideboard cabinet that was ultramodern but so poorly designed the wheels used to hold up the massive doors had long ago broken. One repairman futzed with it and then refused to come back or return calls. Matt thought creatively. He gave us about 4 or 5 options on how to repair it. He discussed pros and cons and talked price, which was extremely reasonable. The end result is that less than 2 weeks later, we have a piece that is safe, beautiful, and usable. We don't have doors that can fall on the dog or small children, and the solution he came up with was the best possible option for the piece. He knows his stuff and is proud of his ability. Call him up, let him do his thing, get out of his way, and be happy. read more

We all know movers are not always the most gentle with furniture. So, on our last move we were left with a sectional with two broken legs and a bed headboard with couple of noticeable scratches. When we contacted him, Matt was very responsive and provided the right repair solutions for our furniture. He came to our apartment to do the repairs on-site and his work was excellent. Overall, our experience with Matt was great. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for furniture repairs. read more

Matt is a magician when it comes to furniture repair. A leg on an antique chair was so broken I worried it might not be repairable. I now cannot tell which chair was damaged, Matt's work is that good. Nice guy, beautiful work, finished ahead of schedule, and price was extremely competitive. A++ read more

Matt did a great job restoring our mid century lounge chairs. We requested a lighter finish than the current and their final state beat expectations; the hue was several shades lighter than we even thought possible and now matches our maple floors beautifully. Would indeed visit Matt again with our refinishing needs. read more

Matt did a great job rejuvenating our antique drop-leaf table. The hinges were failing, and the legs needed shoring up. I'm happy to say he brought our table back to life. He also refinished the table with the natural color of years long past. Bravo Matt! read more

Most unprofessional person I have ever dealt with. This was our text exchange after I sent him a picture of a table I needed repaired: Matt: "If you had never seen this table before and someone asked you to look at a picture and describe the support structure near the floor, do you imagine you could have remotely described it?" Me: "No reason to be rude. I won't be hiring you." Matt: "That wasn't rude princess. It was pragmatic. Nobody needs your little table project. Good luck fool. Now THAT was rude." Me: "You should be ashamed. That is no way to treat a potential customer." Matt: "Madame a person once informing you that you won't be hired is by definition not a potential customer. She is a potential pain in the ass. For goddess [sic] sake, go away." read more

Matt's great he did a fantastic job refinishing my dining room table and chairs.

Great work, reasonable price (cheaper than most quotes I got) and very nice experience working with Matt.

This guy has the worst customer service. A friend recommended him to me, I called, delivered my chair. He gave me a date just before Christmas. I called, he forgot to fix my chair. He said he would do it that day and I could pick it up. I got caught up in my office, stopped at whole foods, and he sent a text message because he had to leave by 5:00 p.m. I told him I could come now because I was a whole food on Roosevelt, very close, he said, "you stopped at whole foods first, huh and hung up on me. My daughter and I were shocked. I text him back about his bad customer service, he texts me back with insults. Finally, several weeks later, I picked the chair, I did not even want to talk to him. He was and as far as I am concerned a creep. He doesn't deserve to be in business. read more

I hired Matt to fix a small water-stained chest and an old side table with paint splatter, scratches and a missing decorative piece. Matt was able to remove the water stain on the chest through sanding and restrained it so that it looks like a new piece of furniture. The side table was completely refinished and it also looks like a new table. I am thrilled to say the least. Thanks so much, Matt. read more

We had a bit of an accident with a couch in a move (busted off leg, broken support beam). Matt's repair was timely, efficient, and affordable. He was able to come out to our home and do the repairs on-site, saving us the trouble of transporting our (rather large) couch. He did a very thorough, solid job of the repairs (no quick fixes) - all while while being conscientious about not making too much of a mess. read more

Thank you, Matt, for transforming my daughter's childhood dresser (used by her about 34 years ago) for our 2 1/2 year old granddaughter. Dresser went from white/blue painted surface to a gorgeous yummy chic pink paint with shiny brass hardware and casters. You sanded/primed the dresser's surfaces so very carefully, reinforced the mirror, and did some other "fixes" to create structural stability, and then applied a paint finish that's smooth as silk. Excellent job! My daughter is especially happy to be able to hand down a vintage piece to her daughter that looks contemporary and vintage at the same time. Would use you AGAIN for any furniture refurbishing work. You're the best!! read more

I brought my grandmother's trunk/coffee table to Matt because a leg was coming off, the bottom was giving out, and it had nicks and cuts all around the edges. Matt was super professional and reasonable with the time and costs to repair. I just picked it back up today and it looks immaculate. Just like it did in my grandma's living room. Bottom was reinforced, legs secured, and polished to a wonderful shine. I'll definitely be coming back for more furniture needs. read more

It was four days before Christmas when I realized one of my dining room chairs was becoming unglued and on the verge of falling apart. I was having a house full of guests for Christmas and needed every available chair. Who do you call to repair a chair and who will do it in a few days? I read the reviews for Matt and hoped he would help me. I sent him a desperate email message that night and early the next morning Matt called me. Within an hour I was delivering the chair to his work place (which, by the way, is so easy to access and even has free parking). Less than 48 hours later the chair was repaired and ready for me to pick up. He did a perfect repair for a reasonable price and I couldn't have been happier or more grateful. Matt is a great guy who does excellent work for affordable prices. I highly recommend him! read more

Matt took a lovely piece of furniture, that was basically disintegrating... and resurrected it!

Thank you Matt. read more
