After searching for someone that would fix what we had and was not trying to sell us new cabinets, cabinet fronts, or painting etc., we found Furniture Medics in Maplewood, MO. When we called the office, Dinorah, handled and addressed our concerns. She was professional, kind and efficient. She forwarded an estimate via email. The technician they sent to our home was Tyler. He was professional, extremely caring, neat and clean and did an outstanding job. They revived and repaired our existing cabinets. He actually took two cabinet doors back to his shop for total refinishing due to the extensive damage from the previous owner's animals. He brought them back today and they blended in beautifully. We are extremely pleased and would recommend this company to take care of all your wood furniture refinishing/repairs needs. https://www.facebook.com/FurnitureMedicCorporate

I inherited an ancestor's pressed oak rocking chair that I wanted to restore, which included…read moreremaking an arm that was lost somewhere along the way. Sheryl made all the arrangements for it through email so all I needed to do was drop it off. On the day of drop off, Jeff looked at it and seemed excited to see it restored, which impressed me and made me comfortable in my choice. He suggested adding a cushion but I wanted crewel needlework fabric like the original seat I remembered, which I assumed they wouldn't have. Jeff stated that he knew someone that might be able to help and made a phone call. Moments later, photos of fabrics were sent and I had a crewel pattern selected. So the estimate was adjusted to include a reupholstered seat with springs and seat foam. Approximately 8 weeks later, my rocker was ready and I'm delighted with the outcome. This rocker has been handed down through my family and will go on to my children and their children. It's an investment in our family history and the care Jeff's team took to restore it is admirable. It could have been "just another rocking chair" to them, but Jeff appreciates the historical significance of family heritage and the respect for furniture that has survived the Civil War era and beyond. I strongly recommend Jeff and his team to return your heirlooms to their days of glory.

My bad, I should have first read the very unfavorable reviews by Godfrey J, Megan J and Adam of…read morethis business on the corner of Kingshighway and Shaw on the Hill before entrusting them to refinishing 4 doors. What should have taken one month at best ended up taking six months was an extremely difficult and unpleasant experience costing 30% more than quoted. After two months contacted them and was told the weather had delayed the project which I didn't understand since the facility is indoors. Followed up one month later and got a lot of complaining about the job, very unprofessional considering this is their business. Contacted again two weeks later and received more complaining about the job. Finally I made an appointment to see the doors, and found that after almost 5 months, the doors were hardly touched. More promises about getting it done in one week, but again another month passed. Also, big complaining about one of the doors and next thing I found out he went out and purchased a new door. I can only assume that more $$ involved ending costing me even more money. Looks like a bait and switch approach to business, lacking in customer service, at one point threatening me with giving me the doors back to me unfinished. Beware and be forewarned.

Gorgeous fix to my mid-century modern chair! Some rough and tumble kids play had accidentally but…read morecompletely separated the arm and part of the chair from the main frame, splintered wood and all. This is an original, not a copy and so I knew it had to be restored by someone who knew what they were doing and wouldn't try to nail or screw it together. St. Louis Restoration was the third of three places I looked into and was the one I entrusted with the job. The owner, Brett, spoke with me about the provenance of the chair, listened to my story about how and where I had found it and it's mate, and about my choices for restoring it to its former glory. It was clear that I loved the piece and he truly appreciated that. I could have chosen to have them place some discreet screws to make the chair stronger but I wanted it to be kept to its original design and free of any alterations, no matter how slight. The chair turned out beautifully and looks as though it had never been broken at all. They took the time and care to do it right and the resulting effect was truly a restoration. While the price was not "cheap" it was certainly fair and I am thrilled with the result. I recently sent another mid-century modern foot bench there to have the top panels re-caned and they quickly accomplished a beautiful replacement of the torn caning and added a gorgeous coat of new varnish to it, all at a very reasonable price. Now I've sent them their toughest task yet, a Wegner coffee table I found at a thrift shop with its poor, broken wings taped to it. I've no doubt I will again be amazed at what they return to me. My next project for them will be my kitchen cabinets! I strongly recommend this business for any restoration needs, they are meticulous in their work and take great pride in what they produce and it shows.
