Holenda Refinishing is our new "go-to" place to have furniture refinished! We bought a huge, used…read moreDuncan Fife style dining room table. It was in pretty good shape, but it had a glossy finish and several minor scratches. Mike said he could bring it back to life, and boy, did he ever! We just got done setting it set up in our dining room and we could not be happier. Mike was responsive to my initial phone call and helpful in describing his services. The table was refinished and ready in a very short time period. I feel what I was charged was very reasonable and within our budget for the project. I tried to take pictures, but they just didn't come out looking near as good as the actual table. I would give Holenda Refinishing a 6-Star rating if allowed!

We were able to secure a date to get an estimate. The owner was friendly & on time. The estimate was fair & we booked a time for him to come and pick up the buffet. He gave us a 4-5 week time frame on when the job would be completed, and he was true to his word. We are very happy with the end result and the work that he did. His estimate was spot on & once again, he was here on the day & time he said he would be for delivery. I would highly recommend Holenda's refinishing.

We just finished an extensive remodel in our master bathroom as well as our guest bathroom. We got quotes to replace all the vanities but decided to go with restoring them with Dennis. Not only did we save money by doing this, we are so pleased with the result. Dennis did a fantastic job! He is a perfectionist and worked with us to get the right stain color. They are beautiful! Dennis is also a pleasure to work with. He is honest and we appreciate him giving us a honest opinion if something will look good or not. We will be calling upon him to restore our mahogany front door as well as to make a matching stand alone cabinet to go with our master bath vanity.

I hired Ken's Furniture Refinishing to repair and refinish my 40-year-old Drexel bedroom set that…read morewas showing its age. It had plenty of wear from everyday use, and had been significantly damaged during my most recent move. His work was SUPERB. Yes, it was very expensive. Yes, it took months to be finished. Ken was up-front about the time and cost involved. I knew going in that this wasn't going to be fast or cheap, but given the value and beauty of the furniture, it was worth it. He quoted me a price, took a 50% deposit, and there were no surprises along the way. He collected the furniture in August; it was promised by Christmas; I got it back in time for Thanksgiving. When Ken and his son delivered my furniture, his work exceeded my expectations. My bedroom set looks every bit as good, if not better, than it did when it was brand new. When they delivered, they even helped me move some of the heavy furniture around in my new house, which they certainly didn't have to do, but was very much appreciated. I am absolutely delighted with the work. I didn't expect to get perfect furniture back, given the age and the extent of some of the damage. All the scratches are gone, and the places where wood had been chipped and splintered during the move are invisible. If you have cheapie furniture that needs a quickie repair, it's probably not worth your time and money to hire Ken to do it. If you have fine furniture that is irreplaceable, he's well worth your patience and cash.
