Since 1923, we manufacture, refinishing, restoration, reupholstering, custom furniture & sales, bent glass, beveled mirrors & leather tops, & caning. Come and see our restored antiques, antique reproductions, and genuine Capodimonte lamps and giftware from Italy. Solve your heirloom and antique problems with complete restoration. We do not fix, repair or reupholster motion furniture or recliners as well as upholstery, spring, and leather repairs. Bring back the original character of your old masterpieces. Period furniture is our specialty, but not our limitation. Removers and strippers can damage the luster and character of the wood. At Montalbano these are never used. Instead we use a specially formulated thinner to completely dissolve the old finish as if it never existed. The item is then taken apart as necessary, re-glued, repaired, completely hand sanded and prepared for its new twelve step finish which is second to none. We are specialists in water, fire and insurance work. We offer free factory estimates and home estimates are available. Pickup and delivery is available. Our other services offered include; leather replacement and bent glass doors, caning as well as expert reupholstering with our 10,000 piece fabric gallery. Manufacture, refinishing, restoration, reupholstering, custom furniture & sales, bent glass, beveled mirrors & leather tops, & caning. We also reglue, repair, and reupholster kitchen and dining room chairs, including animal damage- ie chew marks in the wood. We have changed location so kindly call and make an appointment to look at your needs. We are not always onsite.

Description of Work: Montalbano did an amazing job refurbishing my couch. They gutted the inside and replaced all the broken and worn out springs, restuffed all the pillows and backings and then recovered the whole couch as well as chair. The guys were great to work with very courteous and prompt.

Description of Work: They refinished and reupholstered a very old hand carved wooden armchair. This was a family heirloom that was very special to me. He took extreme care of it. He did a beautifully detailed job. My jaw dropped when I saw it completed. He is worth every dime. Extremely professional and finished 2 weeks early. Highly recommended.

I HAD A LITTLE BIT OF TROUBLE FINDING THE COMPANY, BUT THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL WHEN I CALLED THEM. I HAD TO WAIT A FEW MINUTES TO BE SEEN WHEN I ARRIVED, BUT THEY WERE VERY FRIENDLY, OFFERED A PLACE TO SIT AND SOMETHING TO DRINK. THEIR SHOWROOM HAS SOME BEAUTIFUL PIECES IN IT. THE CHAIRS WERE DONE IN THE TIME THEY SAID THEY WOULD BE DONE AND THEY WERE DELIVERED BACK TO ME PROMPTLY. I PICKED A CLOTH THAT THEY HAD IN STOCK AND SINCE I'M AN ANGIE'S LIST CUSTOMER, I DID NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR IT WHICH WAS A NICE SURPRISE. THE COST IS A LITTLE MORE THAN I HAD PLANNED, BUT THE QUALITY OF THE WORK WAS WORTH IT. I WILL DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN IF I NEED ANY FURNITURE REFINISHED.
Description of Work: I HAD 6 DINING ROOM CHAIRS REFINISHED. THEY REPLACED THE CANE BACKS WITH CLOTH BACKS ALONG WITH THE SEATS, PUT IN NEW CUSHIONS, AND TOUCHED UP WOOD ON THE CHAIRS. THE NEW CUSHIONS ARE COMFORTABLE AND THE CHAIRS LOOK VERY NICE. THE WORKMANSHIP IS EXCELLENT.
