The work they did was ok. But they didn’t respond to 6 phone messages. I went to the location 2x to try and get answers but nobody was there. On my 3rd visit finally Rick was there. But they never did meet the agreed-upon deadline so the gift I was giving someone for their birthday was late.

I could not have asked for better service or better outcome.
Description of Work: They came to do a repair job on my cherry dining table, told me they would be doing me a disservice to try and repair and recommended taking and totally refinishing. I had a very short window of time that they met and the table is beautiful.

Description of Work: Painted a rocking chair. The quality was great, but the communication was disappointing. I had to contact them to find out the status of the chair.

My experience with them has been very positive. They are actually coming in again today but I have used them in the past. I am getting an estimate from them for some new windows. When they did the siding, they were here and they were on time. They were professional and they did quality work. Everything about them was professional.
Description of Work: I used Acorn Restoration for doing work on the siding of half of my house.

I had an old dresser and 2 nightstands that were in terrible condition but had a lot of sentimental value to me. Rick and his team did an amazing job - they look completely restored and beautiful. And the dining table looks better than it did when it was new! The job was done quickly (even though I told him it wasn't a particular rush) and he sent me frequent updates and photos of the work as it was progressing. Rick even offered to bring back one of the nightstands so we could try out stain colors in the room the pieces would go in. He also gave me suggestions on where to look for cabinet hardware and the hard-to-find and quot;ferrulesand quot; for the legs. All in all a great experience. I will definitely go back for the other refinishing jobs I have planned.
Description of Work: Refinished a large dining table, plus restored an old dresser and 2 nightstands.

They were professional. They did an excellent job with excellent results. They were a subcontractor through our main contractor.

We have 40 year old round kitchen table, the top is solid maple. It is 4 ft across and 2 inches thick. It sits on a metal stand. Over the years it has been refinished twice, the last time about 20 years ago when I did it myself. Since it is very heavy and the top and stand were showing wear I did not want to refinish it myself. After a little phone shopping I settled on Acorn Restoration listed on Angie's List. I talked to Rick on the phone and received an estimate of $600. The same day Rick and a helper came out to pick it up. After seeing that the stand was going to be a harder job than he thought, we agreed on an extra $75.00. This was still less than other quotes that I received. In less than a week I had the table back looking like new, I am very pleased with job, and did not expect such fast service. Rick is very easy to deal with, I am pleased.
Description of Work: Picked up our kitchen table, refinished it and delivered it back to us.

This is the second time I've used Acorn. They were originally recommended to me by a very high-end furniture designer at the SF Design Center to help repair damage to an ottoman that had broken. That repair was very tricky. They did a fantastic job (not expensive) and you absolutely cannot tell where the damage was! They do a great job, are pleasant to work with and reasonably priced - I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: They restored and refinished a mid-century chair that had been ignored for a while. The chair looks amazing and the job was completed ahead of schedule at a very reasonable price. I called their office and spoke to the owner. I then emailed him some photos of the job and he provided an estimate. I decided to deliver the chair myself (since I could) and saved the pick up/delivery fee. When I dropped the chair off, I met with the owner and we reviewed the job again to make sure we both had the same understanding of the scope and timing. They called me when the work was done and I went to pick it up. Could not have been easier!

They did a fabulous job. It was not a big deal intricate restoration; but they did a very nice job. They matched the colors well. They were very timely. They turned it around in less than a week. They were very personable. The person that came out was the owner of the company. He was very caring and very knowledgeable. He was very responsive.
Description of Work: We hired Acorn Restoration to refinish a table that we got from my husband's mother home around September of last year.
